Congratulations to Lambda Lambda Lambda, who made it a threepeat last night at the TLA. Eschaton and Deacon Blue finished tied for 2nd. Of course, the event was not without it’s usual controversy, characters, and craziness. I will have a full report tomorrow, as well as photos and final scores of all the teams. I’m dedicating today to drinking Bloody Marys and watching basketball. Thanks to everyone for coming out last night. Hope you had fun. I know Fishtown Eddie did.
There are a few more tickets left if you have a small group. Once we set the chairs up in the early afternoon, I’ll know exactly how many more we can fit, but it’s not going to be many. I’ll try to update the site this afternoon when I know exactly how much more room we have. Get your head right. It’s on.
As of right now, Quizzo Bowl VI is almost sold out but I have a few more seats left. If you are interested in playing, shoot me a line at johnny@johnnygoodtimes.com TODAY. We will not have any tables available by showtime tomorrow. A few more notes:
MAJOR DETAILS: Doors open at 7 p.m., show starts at 8 p.m. (8 p.m. sharp, not 8 p.m. Johnny Goodtimes time.) There is a premium on space, so if you’re a smaller group, expect to be teamed with a larger team. I seem to have a fair amount of 5 or 6 person teams and a fair amount of 1 or 2 person teams, so it should work out, but just expect a fair amount of shuffling once you arrive. Therefore, please get there well before 8 p.m., especially if you are on a smaller team!
FOOD AND DRINK: The beer on sale at Quizzo Bowl VI will be Miller High Life, $3 a bottle. As for food, they will have a few light snacks for sale, but I’d advise eating something a little heartier before the event. At the afterparty, Spoonie is hooking us up with $3 domestics, $4 imports and micros, and $4 (plus tax) highballs. Gonna be a fun party. We’ll be taking over the 2nd and 3rd floors.
QUESTIONS: Slightly harder than usual. 12 Questions per round. A 50/50 round that you are going to hate.
TIME: With this many teams, with a band, and a halftime show, of course this will last a bit longer than a normal quizzo, but not a whole lot longer. We should be done no later than 11 p.m., still leaving us plenty of time to get our grind on at O’Neals.
SEATING: There will be some tables that will be on a slight slant and plenty of you will be sitting at bars, railings, etc. The place has a different layout than any of our previous spots. I think that’s what makes it unique, but like I said, you won’t necessarily be 8 people gathered around a table like in previous years. All I can promise you is a place to write, and (probably) a place to sit. Don’t freak out. Our team was standing room only in Denver and that worked out fine. As I have said before, teams that dress up will get preferred seating. Of course, the preferred seating will be first come first serve.
GIVEAWAYS: I have a ton of stuff to give away. Tickets to future TLA shows, gift certificates to local bars and restaurants, Miller High Life stuff, and some t-shirts from our friends at Phillyphaithful.com. They are also gonna be selling some shirts as well at the event.
RAPPING?: Seriously, let it go. You’re really beating a dead horse at this point.
If you have any questions or concerns, please put them below in the comments.
Had a great time on the CSN Podcast, hosted by John Finger, called the Podcast of Awesomeness. It was a lot of fun. I talk about Quizzo, ask a bunch of trivia questions, and we talk a bit about sports, including one of the guys impersonating Phils PA guy Dan Baker doing porn. This is a pretty funny show. Check it out. I’d talk more about it but it’s 2 in the morning and I have about a 27 hour day to put in tomorrow, so I’m gonna hit the hay. Let me know what you think.
This is it, folks. I’m up to 220 tickets sold. I’ll have tickets for sale tonight (Thursday) at quizzo at Ugly American. After that, it’s every man for himself. We’re going to sell out before Saturday night. So don’t wait until Saturday night to get your tickets! Come see me tonight at quizzo. If that isn’t possible and you want tickets, shoot me an email and we’ll see if we can work something out.
Tickets started flying off the shelves last night. We’re up to 190 sold, meaning there are a mere 110 left. If you are going to buy them, again I would encourage you to not wait until the day of the event. There is a very decent chance we will be sold out by then. Buy your tickets from me tonight at the Locust Rendezvous or tomorrow at Ugly American or the Bards. I can assure you I’ll have tix left at those two locations. After that, you’re on your own.
Ok, today is questions day. Working on Quizzo Bowl questions all day long. If you’ve got any requests for topics to be covered in a question, leave them below in comments. I may or may not heed your advice. Oh, and be sure to get your brackets filled out before tomorrow to win your share of $150 in prizes. Password is goodtimes.
