What trivia question did Jose Garces ask at Quizzo Bowl VII? What about Marc Summers? Mayor Nutter? Find out by watching the video above. For those in the loop, the one liners at the end probably make more sense than for others, but for the uninitiated: Lambda had won the last 3 Quizzo Bowls before this year, Sofa Kingdom are the uber-nerds who won this year, Denver and Philly have a serious geek rivalry, and Fastball Pitcher Bob Gutierrez was my co-host at Quizzo Bowl. (Here is some video of me, him, and Chip dancing, if you missed it.) If you like this video, please click “Like” below. Thanks!

Question of the Week
Final Scores from Quizzo Bowl VII
Here ya go, the Final Scores from Saturday night (Top 10 teams are yellow, top 20 are green, top 30 are blue, top 40 are orange, and last place is grey). Went back and checked some scores and had to change a few things, and everything has been adjusted as best as possible. There was one major scoring change, and I have contacted both teams, who were both incredibly gracious about it. Further re-enforces what an awesome community this quizzo crowd is.
2 1/2 Kilos (aka The Jams) in fact finished 2nd, and Dorksided finished 3rd. It was a grading error, not a scoring error, and I am going to put some further safety guards in place to make sure we get things right next year. Trust me, by far the hardest thing about Quizzo Bowl is trying to grade all of those papers checked in such a short amount of time with 100% accuracy, and unfortunately, there is no way of guaranteeing that, even when things are triple checked. Not making excuses, we REALLY should have caught that, but I assure you that I will do everything in my power to prevent this from happening again. I have tried my best to make it up to Dorksided by upping their 3rd Place haul, and I again want to thank the Kilos, who knew they finished 2nd but didn’t say anything because they didn’t want to make a stink about. Doesn’t get much classier than that (I found out when I double checked the scores this morning.)
If your score seems off, let me know and I’ll double check for you. But I’ve spent all morning double checking things, and scores should be about right. Gonna work on editing the celebrity round now to make it more smooth for the internet. Hope to have it up this afternoon.
Quizzo Bowl Pics Are Now Up
For four straight years, DJ Starr has shot Quizzo Bowl from every conceivable angle, and the results have been incredible. This year is no exception. Click here to see his incredible photos of Quizzo Bowl VII. And good news: I believe there are even more to follow, as one of the guys from Denver’s team took a ton of them too. I have to start getting ready for tonight’s comedy show, but rest assured: all final scores, questions, a write up, and the celebrity round will be posted in the next couple of days.

Kristy and Koob’s Quizzo Starts Tuesday Night!
Kristy and Koob are starting their own quizzo, but without all of those pesky questions about history and science. If you love movies, music, and modern literature, you’re going to love this quiz. The very first one is at the Raven Lounge Tuesday night @8 p.m. They then kick off their first quiz at the Khyber next week as the opener of a very special Old City doubleheader, as I will be hosting an awesome Comedy show across the street at Plough and the Stars as soon as their quizzo is completed.

Was it just me, or did Chip, Fastball Bob, and I bring sexy back? (special thanks to Steve Kearney for shooting video at the event!)

Congratulations to Sofa Kingdom, Winners of an Action Packed Quizzo Bowl VII
Sofa Kingdom finally wrested away the James Buchanan Memorial Trophy from Lambda Lambda Lambda at Quizzo Bowl VII at the World Cafe Live Saturday night, edging Dork Sided, 128-123. As you can see above, I was thrilled with their win. There will be a ton of video, photos, and scores posted right here on the site in the coming days. Today, I am going to lay on the couch, drink Bloody Mary’s, and eat things that are bad for my health. I want to thank everyone who spent their Saturday night playing quizzo, and thank all of the people who went out of their way to help me make this crazy show a reality. Cheers, and I’ll have plenty of fun stuff posted tomorrow.
1 p.m. Update: There Are About 20 Tickets Remaining
Just a heads up that I just talked to WCL and there are about 20 seats left. Order them online! If you wait until tonight and order them at the door it’s just a roll of the dice. If 20 people get there before you, you can’t get in. You do not want to miss this quiz! The band is rehearsing the music round right now, Fastball Pitcher Bob Gutierrez is warming up in the bullpen, and there are some surprises in the celebrity round you do not want to miss.
Schedule for Quizzo Bowl
This is a rough schedule. We could go a little long, we could go a little short. Count on more or less 3 hours. Yeah, I know it’s longer than your normal quiz…but this ain’t your normal quiz. Relax, it’s Saturday night.
Also, very important: we are starting at 8 p.m. real time, not 8 p.m. JGT time. Teams of 4 or less, please be there no later than 7:30! We need to get smaller teams organized into larger teams, and the earlier we can get that done the better. That will be a great help in having us start on time. If you are a team of 6 or less, you will almost certainly
