Trivia at the Ridge
Online Game

Trivia at the Ridge is an interactive game players can access on their smart phones or other electronic devices. The game asks trivia questions about the rockabilly singers who once frequented Hwy. 67 through Walnut Ridge, and about the Beatles’ 1964 stop at the Walnut Ridge Airport. Answer those questions to advance to a second round of questions about the Walnut Ridge blood feud that raged for several years in the early 1900s.
