## eTail's After-Hours Game Show. *Your Table vs. Everyone.* (eTail Palm Springs, Tuesday, February 23, 2027)

A live e-commerce news quiz where the audience is the cast. Table teams of six to eight play three rounds built from the year's e-commerce news, and one leaderboard decides the winning table.

It is free, the buses leave the JW Marriott Desert Springs at 6:45 pm, and Talk Commerce and Always Off Brand are hosting.

## The Three Rounds

The questions come from the year in e-commerce news. Here is a taste of each round.

#### Who's Brent This Time?

Scott reads a real quote from the year in e-commerce news and your table names who said it. Try this one. Purchases by its AI agent are "considered transactions authorized by you." Which retailer wrote that into its terms?

#### Bluff the Listener

Three people from the audience read three strange stories. One is true, and your table votes. The sample theme is "My AI agent did WHAT?" with three shopping-agent disasters, two of them invented.

#### Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank

Your table rep gets 45 seconds of rapid-fire blanks, and a miss lets the room steal it. Try this one. In 2026, Amazon moved Prime Day from July to ____.

## How the Night Works

## How the Night Works
