Quizzo News and Notes

jgtlogo5One week done, six more to go. A great week one, and an interesting scoreboard. Still plenty of time to score, so if you didn’t score this week or didn’t get a chance to play this week, don’t sweat it. There is plenty of time left. A few things to keep in mind for next week. Despite the holiday, there WILL be a quizzo at the Westbury Monday night at 10:30 p.m., and you CAN earn points toward the Invitational by playing there. On Tuesday at O’Neals in addition to the already lucrative $50 first prize, I will be raffling off two Phillies tickets in Section 136. These are awesome seats, so be sure to make it to O’Neals. Your best chance to get on the board? Probably Tuesday night. Neither O’Neals or Bards was packed on Tuesday, and a score of 66 earned a team a point at the Bards. Alright, gang, have a great holiday and we’ll see ya next week!

Great Chance to Earn Points Tonight!

french fryAction starts at the Ugly American at 8 p.m., and while L. Ron Hubbard’s Diabetics are the early favorites, they have been in a bit of a slump lately. A 2-person team actually took the gold last week. What does that mean? That means that after a ridiculously packed Black Sheep last night, tonight could be the night where your team has a better chance to score some points and head into the holiday on the scoreboard. All drafts are a dollar off during quizzo.

On to the Black Sheep. Let’s not kid ourselves. Steak Em Up is the favorite. But, a couple of things to keep in mind: first of all, they are not unstoppable. In fact, they lost just last Thursday. Secondly, even if they win, there is certainly a great chance for your team to finish 2nd and still earn 3 points. There has been no consistent team at the Bards other than Steak Em Up, so 2nd and 3rd place are wide open. Also, Lagers are $2.50. Tough to beat.

And of course, ALL NEW QUESTIONS TONIGHT. That means that if you played earlier this week, you are more than welcome to make another go at it. Hope to see you tonight. And of course we’ll be giving away french fries. Assuming someone reminds me.
