First of all, does anyone remember who won at the Rendezvous and Black Sheep last week? I haven’t been able to get a hold of the old scoresheets, and after investigating on Wednesday night, I found out who finished 2nd and 3rd but not first. Apparently we had upsets at both bars. If you’re team won, please give me a heads up so I can give you your just rewards.
Also, let me know who won Liberty 360 tickets at the Autumn Invitational. I have your tickets, I just forgot to hand them out after the event. Let me know and I’ll bring them to quizzo this week. It is a pretty cool show. I went a couple of weeks ago. And if I owe you any other prizes, whether from here or isportacus, let me know. I want to get caught up on all that stuff. Hit me up at johnny@johnnygoodtimes.com or on facebook.
The Chip Chantry One Man Show returns this Monday! Chip and I will be hosting the fun at a new location, the Shubin Theatre on 4th and Bainbridge. We have a great lineup and it’s gonna be an awesome show. Here’s some more details.
A quick reminder to you Harry Potter geeks. Mike Minion will be hosting his Harry Potter quiz on Monday, December 12th at the Ugly American at 8 p.m.
If you want to upgrade your team avatar just put one together and hit me up on facebook. If you haven’t sent me one, I’ve made one up, but you are still welcome to make one yourself and send it to me.
Well, I suppose you’ve got a choice tonight. You could go to some modern day Gomorrah of a bar and repeatedly spell a 6-letter bird hundreds of times, or you could actually use your brain while enjoying football. A radical notion, I know, but hey, the future is here. Climb aboard.
We start at Ugly American (Front and Federal) at 8 p.m. Every time the Eagles score a touchdown, I ask a new French Fry question. If this game is anything like the Redskins game a few weeks ago, we could have dozens of french fry baskets throughout the bar. Also, Lagers are a mere $2 and Kenzingers are $3. At the Bards, action kicks off at 10:15 p.m. We had last week off for the holiday but hopefully can back to the packed houses we’ve had in the month leading up to that. Their awesome projector TV will of course be showing the game. Hope to see ya tonight!
Things are looking rough outside. Howling winds, driving rain, a practical monsoon. Can the quizmaster possibly make it through this mess? Of course he can. He must. Because it’s Wednesday, and these questions aren’t going to ask themselves. Therefore, I shall storm though these brutal conditions that would make the average man cower in fear. You’re welcome.
We start at the Locust Rendezvous at 6:15 p.m. Perhaps the most impressive collection of teams on the tour. The Barristers, the Jams, Magnus, 1022. Any of them could win on any given week, and there are rumors of a Missing Heads sighting this week as well. If you want to test your mettle against the big boys, this is a good place to do it. And needless to say, the drink specials are among the best in the city. 16 oz Rolling Rock cans are $2 and $3 Magic Hat Howl pints.
On to the Black Sheep. Important Note: Black Sheep quiz is pushed back an hour tonight due to a private party. We will be starting at 9 p.m. Duane’s World and Catdog are the perennial favorites there, but there is plenty of parity as well. So put on your rubbers and get out to quizzo! The quizmaster will not let you down! Oh, and I’ve got some sweet last place prizes this week as well.
UPDATE: Uh, nevermind about that sleet and rain bit. It’s pretty sunny and clear right now. But um, I’m still pretty brave.
