Tonight, Bernie, T rump or trivia. What do?

Bernie is going to be at UC Davis at the football stadium tonight. T rump is going to be at the airport tonight. Trivia at my favorite bar tonight and we usually win. (Free beer!)

All three are equidistant from where I am right now. I've already seen one Bernie show on this tour, I kind of know how it goes. I find the T rump phenomenon very interesting. And free beer is free beer.
Should I ask my friend to go to either? Great guy, good friend free market, ex military, sell IT systems to the government (all levels) never voted for a Democrat in his life kind of guy. He took me to UC Davis to see Ron Paul 4 years ago. Ask him to come to the Bernie event ( which I am sure he would decline)? Or should I surprise and ask him to go to the Trump event? (Not to protest, I think it would be interesting) or play trivia, my friend is also one of my trivia teammates.
I'm pretty sure that he would not go with me to the Bernie event, even though I did go to a Ron Paul event with him at his urging. He claims to hate T rump but I know that if that scenario came to play he would vote for him.

...then since you already saw him in person, I think you should do another activity instead of going to the Sanders rally alone.

There will probably be more people than space and by not going you may let someone else see Bernie Sanders for the first time.
