We get the party started at O’Neals at 8 p.m. Things have been kicking there lately, and plenty of parity, though Brain Delay has been on a hot streak lately.
On to the City Tap House at 10:15 p.m. Just a couple more weeks until I start screaming at Penn kids for using their cell phones. Until then, it’s anybody’s ball game and there’s a $100 gift certificate on the line. Hope to see ya tonight.
Gordon Gekko’s famous “Greed is good” line in the movie Wall Street was based on an actual statement that this man made in a speech in 1986: “I think greed is healthy. You can be greedy and still feel good about yourself.” A few months after giving the speech, the man in question was arrested for being too greedy. Who was he?
I Grew Up In the 80s by johnnygoodtimes
Here’s a song I did with the Jim Fab Five about growing up in the 1980s, with singing done by Adam Schultz. Enjoy, and if you like it, spread the word. As for the rap battle on Thursday…well the less said about my performance the better. I’ll have video posted later this week.
It’s “I Heart the 80s Wild Card Week” at quizzo. Here’s how it works. All questions will be about the 1980s…styles, celebrities, world events and much, much more. Furthermore, if your team is hoping to play in the JGTSI City vs. City Smackdown and did not score enough points to earn an invite, there is still hope…you just need to score a 1st or 2nd place finish this week to earn an invite. As for teams who did make the cut (in yellow and blue), you will be receiving your official invite today.
Big news in the JGT Quizzo world. Next, week I’m going to take my talents to North Star Bar. I will be hosting a quizzo there every Monday at 7 p.m. More details coming later in the week. And after the quizzo, there will be live music. Should be a fun night out. If you have peeps in that area that are looking for a good quiz, let ’em know.
We had a great time at the sports quiz on Sunday night. Nice turnout, and some real uber-geeks in the building. When the dust settled, there was a two man team who took it to the next level, missing only 2 1/2 questions and finishing with a 117(and it was not an easy quiz). Logjammin finished 2nd with a 111 and Where’s the Elevator finished 3rd with a 109. Hoping to do more of these. I’ll post the wild card round (No-hitters) a little later on Philly Sports History.
Got some sick prizes to give away at the JGTSSQS tonight at City Tap House. The winning team of our sports quiz will walk with 4 Phillies tickets, plus a ride to and from the game in a fully stocked limo, plus a $50 gift certificate to City Tap House. Going to be a very fun quiz. As a huge sports fan, I love writing sports quizzes and am really looking forward to this one. Questions will be primarily football, baseball, and basketball, with just a dash of hockey and soccer thrown in for good measure. Max team size is 4. Action starts at the City Tap House at 7 p.m. this Sunday. Gonna have some great beer and food specials. Hope to see ya there.
