The AbsoLOUte Best Night Out: South Jersey’s Trivia King

If you’ve spent any time in the South Jersey bar scene, you know there’s a difference between a guy with an aux cord and a true entertainer. Today, we’re spotlighting one of the hardest-working names in the SJ nightlife game: DJ Lou DiMarco.

Lou isn’t just a DJ who spins tracks while you sip your Miller Lite; he’s a personality. Whether he’s MCing a private event or commanding a packed bar, he brings a level of energy that turns a regular Tuesday into a Friday night. But if you really want the full experience, you have to catch him for AbsoLOUte Trivia.

Forget the boring, monotone trivia hosts you’re used to. Lou turns trivia into a full-blown interactive game show. It’s loud, it’s competitive, and it’s arguably the best excuse to get out of the house on a weeknight.

Ready to test your knowledge (and maybe win some bar tabs)? Here is where you can catch the AbsoLOUte Trivia tour every week:

📍 Alisha’s Five Star Dive Bar

If you haven’t checked out the rebranded vibe at Alisha’s yet, you’re missing out. Lou brings the heat here every week. It’s the perfect spot to grab a cold one, enjoy that classic dive bar atmosphere, and see if your team has what it takes to top the leaderboard.

• Vibe: Unpretentious fun, great crowd, and high energy.

📍 The Jug Handle Inn

You probably know The Jug Handle for having some of the best wings in the entire tri-state area (seriously, if you haven’t had the Bald Eagle sauce, go now). But they serve up more than just wings—they serve up serious competition. DJ Lou takes over the mic here weekly, making it the ultimate “Wings & Wisdom” night.

• Pro Tip: Get there early to snag a table; the combo of Lou + Wings fills the room fast.

📍 House of Brews

Located in Turnersville, House of Brews is a staple for craft beer lovers, and Lou fits right in. This is the spot for the team that likes a good IPA with their pop culture questions. The atmosphere here is electric when Lou gets the room going.

• The Drink: Pair your trivia round with one of their rotating taps—brain fuel is essential.

The Verdict?

If you see DJ Lou DiMarco on the flyer, you know it’s going to be a good night. Whether you are a trivia nerd or just looking for a high-energy hangout spot, follow the sound of the music (and the laughter) to one of his weekly residencies.
