A beautiful afternoon for quizzo at the Oval on Sunday! Great to see some old friends from our North Star days (shout out Ink Spot and Careless Fister) and check out this year’s layout….very chill. I dig it. We had a great turnout and a lotta fun.
`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”. See ya soon!
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.
A big week of quizzin’ coming up. Seven different locations for you to play the best quiz in town. And yes, the Wednesday quiz at Dock Street will have the Sixers game on. Hope to see ya this week!
Hard to believe, but we’re back it for the 19th season! I’ve since turfed it over to Shibe Sports, so if you want to fill out your brackets, you can do so here. It’s free to play, everyone who enters gets 25% off anything at Shibe, AND the prizes are great:
1st place – A year’s supply of shirts! We send you 12 t-shirts from Shibe Sports! ($400 value)
2nd place – Bowman Chrome “U” Hobby Box college basketball cards courtesy of Wheelhouse Cards ($200 value)
First week at Redcrest Kitchen was a success! Mike will be back there this week. We’ll also watch occasional quizzo player Celeste DiNucci on Monday night at Loco Pez as she makes her return to Jeopardy. Nine different places to quiz! Hope to see ya this week!
Hey there, gang, wanted to look into maybe running some online quizzes again. I know we have a lot of teams who love to quiz but can’t get out to the bars anymore. So why not take the weekly quiz online? I’m gonna host it Thursday, February 29th at 8 PM and see how it goes…$30 a team, I’ll be hosting, let’s have some fun with it. (If you play at the bars that week, you can’t play the online quiz). If you’re interested, sign up here and pay me on venmo at @jgtquizzo. See ya then!
We’re back at it this week, with lots of quizzo goodness…there’s also talk of a potential online quiz on Thursday night…we’ll post on Tuesday if we can pull that one off.

Round Three was supposed to be Reef hosting a Rap Round. But Reef’s son had his Little League football banquet Sunday, so he had to bow out. For some reason, I thought it would be funny if Reef filled in for him, so I reached out. It was funny all right. Fergie set the roof on fire, riffing and ranting and raving hilariously for the full round. Anyway, here’s Round Three:
