Quizzo News and Schedule

It has long been Johnny Goodtimes policy that there’s no half-steppin’….this weekend we made it official. Got to see Big Daddy Kane in concert at a “Get Out the Vote” event in West Philly, then was lucky enough to get a pic afterwards. This guy was a hero to me as a teen…a brilliant wordsmith and the absolute definition of “cool”. I don’t get starstruck often, but in this case I was absolutely thrilled.

Quick notes:

First prize at Clarkville is $75 gift card (!) and they’re running a “Pizza and a Beer for $20 Special” during quizzo. I’m really liking the vibe at that one.

Two Locals took off for a private event last week but will be back Tuesday at 6 PM with Ya Fav Trashman hosting. For those who don’t know, it’s Philly’s first black-owned brewery, so it’s REALLY cool to work with them and I hope we can make that one work.

Redcrest is picking up, which is really nice to see. It’s a great bar, great food, and the owner takes good care of his staff. I really want them to succeed.

For those teams made quizless by Dock Street quiz ending: join us at Founding Fathers. Same neighborhood, just a different night. Action starts at 8 PM.

Fringe Bar with Simon is our only in-person quiz currently on Wednesdays. Virtual quiz is also scheduled for Wednesday. Here’s the signup sheet.

The week wraps up Thursday with Taryn at Deli at Dwell (outside when the weather is nice!) and Pizzata with Carl.

And the holidays are coming…if you’d like to have me host your corporate event, birthday party, or even holiday party at your house, we can do it. Just shoot us a line here with details and we’ll send you an estimate.

Look forward to seeing ya this week!

Quizzo This Week

Fun week at the beach. Some boating, some swimming, and some fishin’. I’d like to that Lil’ Ace are “tanned, rested, and ready,” but with my British skin I’ll have to settle for rested and ready. (My wife’s golden tan continues to be a source of jealousy and annoyance)

Please note that Mike is also hosting a semi-regular quiz at a great brewery, Two Locals in West Philly. Winner gets a $30 gift card and each member of the team gets a free round of golf at Libertee Grounds!

Our theme this week is “General Trivia”, though I’d expect an Olympics twist. See ya soon!

Killer B Week

No quizzo Monday due to the holiday. Otherwise it’s business as usual. BUT I am looking for some theme ideas for the summer. So go to our IG or to our Facebook and enter your ideas for theme weeks. We’ve already selected “Killer Bs” as this week’s topic. I’ll start getting a calendar together for the other weeks this summer and let y’all know what it is later this week.
