Goodtimes Receives Death Threat!

Posted on December 4, 2003 by Arthur| Comments Off

Johnny Goodtimes received a death threat a few days ago, and the Johnny Goodstapo was immediately called into action. “It was a friendly letter,” said Johnny, “But then at one point the writer said ‘they could tell me, but they’d have to kill me’. I think it was a throwaway comment, based on something Tom Cruise said in the 1985 box office sensation Top Gun. But in these troubled times, you can really never be too cautious.” Things got worse a couple of days later. “I got another letter, this one apologizing for the remark, but letting me know that ‘this is the way South Philly girls roll.’ Needless to say, I called the Johnny Goodstapo on the double.” Baron von Weinerschnitzel (below) has been head of the Goodstapo since 1922. “This isn’t the first time this has happened. You’ve got to remember, Johnny is an international mega-star, so these things are bound to occur. But ever since Johnny got his ass handed to him by that broad at the aquarium, we’ve had to be even more vigilant.”

Nation Keeps It Real

The Nation of Quizlam was able to squeeze past the Atari Monkeys on Wednesday at Nick’s Roast Beef, 92-89. But they wouldn’t have been able to do it without their friends-from the rap group N.W.A.! “That MC Ren is a lot smarter than people give him credit for,” said team leader Otis “Silver” Spoons. “And Ice Cube knows a lot about state capitols, which paid off in the wildcard round.” But it was Eazy E who really came through in round four, scoring the bonus question right and taking the team over the top. “The Boys N Da Hood are not only hard,” continued Otis, “But they’re smart as well!”

Dewey, Bully, and Howe were able to squeak past the Consultants in the first ever Quizzo at Centre Square Bar and Grille, 95-94. Shortly after the contest, DB & H received a telegraph from the 1903 Boston Pilgrims, who won the first ever World Series. “They just said that they knew how we were feeling, both being the winner of huge inaugural events and all,” said DB & H member Rollie Cornwright. “They also said that they would buy us a round, but they can’t because they’re all dead.”

Whiskey Lou Rips Monkey From Back

Posted on December 3, 2003 by Arthur| Comments Off

The Whiskey Lou Rebellion, playing in honor of a favorite judge who recently passed away, were able to rip the monkey from their backs in convincing fashion on Monday, fighting off the Moe Syslack Experience, 91-86. The Rebellion, who had won the first quizzo they had participated in, months ago, and had not won since, were relieved to get a win. “Those monkeys were poorly behaved. They would hurl their own feces, screech through the night, and stab me with their swords,” said team member Sal Alamo. “I’m glad that’s all done with.”
