Quizzo Doubleheader at City Tap House Tonight!!!

Quizzo at O’Neals is cancelled this week due to Game 7, but worry not…there will be two different quizzes at City Tap House tonight. First up, at 8 p.m. Kristy B. and I are going to host a very special Science Quiz that has apparently been generating a lot of buzz…if you are gonna make it to this one, I suggest you get there early. Action starts at 8 p.m. sharp.

I will then keep the nerd party going with a 2nd, all new quiz at 10:15 p.m. While this one will not have any specific theme, I would expect a few questions about “Royals”, particularly crazy ones. But that’s just me. Yes, you can earn points to the JGTSpI in both. Hope to see ya tonight!

Quick Quizzo Notes

Quizzo at the Khyber is cancelled for tonight. Koob and Kristy will be hosting an All-Science Quizzo at the City Tap House tomorrow night.

Also, O’Neals quizzo for Tuesday is cancelled due to the Flyers game 7. City Tap House quiz is still on (following Koob and Kristy’s quiz) as far as I know.

Scores will be posted first thing tomorrow (Tuesday) morning. Steve-O has been signed on as a musical guest for Sunday’s quiz. Be ready to song along to your favorite monster ballads. And one lucky team will get him as a teammate. We’ll have a drawing before the game. See ya soon-JGT.
