JGTSI Update: Food and Drink Specials

Just talked to Andy. We have got some AWESOME prizes and specials lined up for Sunday. $3 Sierra Nevada Pale Ales, $3 Sly Fox Weisse, $4 Jack’s Cider cans and $6 Spiked Watermelon Lemonade. As for food, we’ve got $10 Smoked TriTip Beef Sandwiches with slaw and fries, $10 spiced wings, and $10 margherita pizzas. In addition to sick prizes for the winners, I’m gonna have Phillies tix to give away, as well as tix to City Tap House’s upcoming Crab Fest (this thing looks awesome, and TJ Kong and the Atomic Bomb are incredible). For our show, we’ve got a couple of members of another great local band, the Toy Soldiers.

Here are the teams who have accepted their invites thus far. I have two more team spaces still available. If you’ve earned an invite, let me know if you want to attend. Also, if you just have one or two people who just want to play, though didn’t qualify as a team, let me know and I’ll throw you on a team that needs some players.

  2. Team Popesack
  3. Steak Em Up

Since there are a few openings, some bubble teams are in. Lucky Cat, Death of a Care Bear, and Avenue Hustlaz, if you read this, holla atcha boy (johnny at johnnygoodtimes.com) and lets get you on the list. Gonna be a lot of fun. More deets coming tomorrow. And your last chance to earn a wild card bid is tonight.

Bounty Bowl Tonight

Ok, you’re last chance to earn in invite to the JGTSI is tonight. I’ll have details about Sunday’s band tomorrow. Excited about the duo we’ve got for this one.

As for tonight, we start at Ugly American at 8 p.m. A GREAT shot to earn an invite, though Extra Testicle has won 2 out of the last 3 weeks. On to the Bards at 10:15 p.m., where there is STILL a $40 bounty on the head of Steak Em Up. Beat them and take first place and you’ll be up $80 in prizes. Big time. Action starts at 10:15 p.m. See ya tonight!

Final JGTSI 3 Scores Posted

Here they are, the Final scores to the third annual JGTSI. I’ve contacted most teams, but there are a few whose info I don’t have handy. I still need to contact Extra Testicle, Interim Team Name, Ruby Tuesday, and Bengali Tiger. If you’re on one of those teams shoot me a line (johnny@johnnygoodtimes.com) so I can give you an invite.

As for this week, it’s Wild Card Week. If you didn’t make the cut, you’ve still got a shot. Just finish first or second this week at any quiz, and you can earn an automatic invite. Your best chances? Certainly North Star is your best chance. After that, I’d say Ugly American. Get your squad together. We’re gonna have a lot of fun next Sunday. Hope you can make it.

Last Night of the JGTSI, Bounty Bowl

Tonight is your last chance to score points in the JGTSI. An all new quiz tonight, so if you played early this week and didn’t do well, feel free to try again. We start at Ugly American at 8 p.m. No prohibitive favorites, could be a great opportunity to score some points. Oh, and $2 Lagers. On to the Bards at 10:15 p.m. Bounty is up to $35, and nobody has come close to knocking off Steak Em Up. Could tonight be the night? $2.50 Lager Lights. Expect a few Olympics questions, and perhaps a few about England as well.

Quizzo Tonight

Kick it off at O’Neals at 8 p.m. $3.50 margaritas. On tot he City Tap House at 10:15 pm. It’s hot out now, but by 10:15 it’s supposed to be 76 with a light breeze. If so, we could be doing this thing outdoors. If it’s too hot or windy, we’ll be in the backroom. A little geography and a little science tonight. Hope to see ya there!

Quizzo Tonight


Yo peeps, tonight we head into Week 6 of the JGTSI. This is a big week for a lot of teams if you’re going to make a move in the standings. We kick it off tonight at 7 p.m. at North Star Bar. $3 Kenzos. On to Sidecar at 9:15. Yes there was a water main break (see video above) on 21st Street, but the water in the neighborhood is back on, so as of right now I’m assuming that Sidecar will be open. If that changes, I’ll let you know.

JGTSI News

Sorry that I’ve been slacking on the scoreboard. I’m going to Hawaii next month, and to pay for the trip I’ve taken on a part time gig with Comcast. It’s a cool gig, going to be doing a lot of internet stuff for the Olympics, but it’s kept me swamped for the past couple of weeks. I’ll have time tomorrow to get the scoreboard up, so you’ll be up to date then. And I’ll let you know soon the details on the JGTSI. All I can tell you for now is that it will be held on the evening of Sunday, August 12th.

There is also a new physical challenge posted on facebook, with a chance for some bonus points.

Bounty Bowl to Be Settled Tonight?

Looking like tonight might very well be the night that the Steak finally falls at Bards. Kenny played last night, so they’re down to Garbo, Koob and Nate. Still formidable, for sure, but beatable. $30 bonus to any team that beats Steak Em Up and finishes first. Action starts at 10:15 p.m. Before that, we kick off at Ugly American at 8 p.m. Great spot if you’re looking for a win to get on the board for the JGTSI. Oh, and $2 Lagers is tough to beat.
