Goodtimes Vs. Greattimes from Johnny Goodtimes on Vimeo.

Only one can run the city. We’ll find out who on February 18th at the World Cafe Live. Oh, and if you don’t know who Fastball Pitcher Bob Gutierrez is, I highly encourage you to check out last year’s Quizzo Bowl promo. You’ll thank me for it.

Clearing up a Quizzo Bowl Misconception

Several people have asked me if the quiz is all about the Caribbean. No. Sorry if I didn’t make that clear enough. It will be a general knowledge quiz, like a typical quizzo, except slightly harder and a lot more fun. The usual: sports, entertainment, science, literature, humanities, etc. There will be 5 rounds, with an easy, a 50-50, a celebrity, a music round, and an impossible round. Might there be a few Caribbean questions? Maybe. Who knows?*

*Not me. If you think I’ve started writing the Quizzo Bowl questions already, you obviously don’t know me very well.

Quizzo Bowl Afterparty at JG Domestic

Oh, we fancy huh? Yep. The Quizzo Bowl afterparty is gonna be going down just a 10 minute walk from the World Cafe Live at one of the coolest establishments in the city. JG Domestic is gonna be hooking us up with their beautiful space, happy hour drink specials, and our good buddy Andy B. behind the bar*. It’s gonna help make a great night even better. Do not wait until the last minute and miss the greatest quizzo night on earth! Buy your tickets today! You can either buy from me at quizzo tonight or you can buy them online here.

*Quick heads up: there will not be food service, just some light snacks, so be sure to get dinner at WCL.

Quizzo Tonight

We kick it off at Locust Rendezvous at 6:15 p.m. then move to the Black Sheep at 8 p.m. You definitely want to bring your literary team member. A very interesting wild card round (The Penn kids hated it…you’ll love it.) Hope to see you tonight…and just a heads up…there might be a question or two about this guy.

Question of the Week

Keith Richards named one of his guitars after this character in David Copperfield based on Charles Dickens’s father. Who is that character?

The Most Parity Ever at this Year’s Quizzo Bowl?

Quizzo Bowl VIII Promo from Johnny Goodtimes on Vimeo.

There has been plenty of craziness at Quizzo Bowl over the years. But we haven’t had a lot of parity. Oh sure, we’ve had close matches (last  year’s was determined by a point, Quizzo Bowl V was determined by one question, etc.), but so far we’ve only had 3 different winners in 7 years. That could be changing this year. For one thing, Lambda will not be playing. Yes, you heard right. Steve-O has a wedding to attend that day, and without his leadership, the team fell apart. Sofa Kingdom meanwhile, will be without two of their best players. Garbo will be in Brazil (don’t ask) and rumor has it that Kenney will be reforming his old team, the Hurtin Bombs. Don’t make any mistake, that team is so good that they’ll still be right in the thick of things (they finished 2nd at Quizzo Bowl IV without Kenney or Garbo), but it certainly evens the playing field a little bit. I am predicting a new winner this year. Will it be your team that reaches the heights of quizzo immortality?

On Tap for Quizzo Bowl Halftime? Breakdancing!

We’re gonna keep the energy level high at this year’s Quizzo Bowl, with a breakdancing troupe from famed local dancer and choreographer Rennie Harris. Not quite Caribbean, but just a heck of a lot of fun. I kind of threw a few different halftime ideas past a few different people, and every time I said “breakdancers” their eyes lit up. So I’m pretty sure we’re going to have a lot of fun with this. Of course, there will also be performances from the Cavatino Calypso Band between rounds, and plenty of prizes to give away throughout the night. And yes, Fastball Bob will be in the building.
