314 Spelling Buzzed

Think you can spell after a drink or two?

Now prove it.

314 Spelling Buzzed is a high-energy, crowd-interactive spelling showdown where confidence matters more than correctness and the audience is encouraged to heckle (lovingly). This is not a traditional spelling bee. It’s louder. It’s sillier. And it’s fueled by drinks, DJs, and questionable decisions.

THE FORMAT

25 contestants

5 competitive rounds

Audience mini-games between rounds

Comedy, chaos, and crowd judging encouraged

Contestants will spell words, define them incorrectly, sell them like bad infomercials, and survive head-to-head spelling duels, all while the crowd cheers, distracts, and decides their fate.

HOSTS & JUDGES

Hosted by DJ Bry

Music & sound effects by DJ Shawn Pellegrino

3 local celebrity judges (to be announced)

Judges will help decide winners based on spelling, creativity, confidence, and overall chaos.

PRIZES

1st Place: $250 winner pot

2nd Place: $100 gift card

3rd Place: $50 gift card

Plus bragging rights and a very official (and very silly) Spelling Buzzed certificate.
