Thursdays with Ginger

976697499_l.jpg
JGT: Old age and bitterness has caused me to become a rather dull stick in the mud who rarely ventures outside my freezing cold fortress. Therefore, in an effort to keep the website lively, I have brought on beer lass and local bon vivant Suzanne Woods (aka “The Lovely Ginger), who is always out, drinking good beer and eating great food throughout the city, despite having absolutely no money. She knows “what’s up” and is, quite frankly, much hipper than I. She also knows lots of hot chicks, as she is the force behind “In Pursuit of Ale“, the female beer drinking club in Philly. Here is her first of what will be a weekly column every Thursday.

For those of you who haven’t met me, I’m Ginger, Johnny’s leading “lovely assistant.” He coined that not me….I’m sort of his Vanna White. She actually has it much easier than me. I don’t think Pat Sajak is nearly as high maintenance as Johnny.

QUick question

Still in talks with the World Cafe Live about QB3. Hoping to work something out, but we haven’t found a date that works for both of us yet. If it can’t be worked out, does anyone know of any place that serves booze that can fit 300 people seated? Don’t worry, it’s definitely gonna happen, but I just wanna cover all my bases. If you know of any good spots, please leave them in the comments below.

Eagles vs. Panthers on the big screen!

Here’s the thing gang. If we win tonight, we will be tied for the 4th best record in the NFC! As much of a total disaster as this season’s been, there is still a chance to turn this thing around and make the playoffs. But we have to win tonight. As one of America’s greatest band ever said, “Don’t Stop Believin'”. So come out to watch the game on Philadelphia’s largest screen and come to the only place where you can watch and possibly even participate in the Wheel of Terrific. It’s also dollar dog night, we’ll be giving away a bunch of stuff, we’ll have some speed comedy with some of philly’s best young comedians, and beers will be super cheap. And it’s free! Honestly, there is nowhere you can go in Philly and have more fun watching the game than the Trocadero (1003 Arch Street). See ya there!

You Gots to Chill Trivia

Yeah, it’s getting chilly outside, and you know what that means: that it is absolutely freezing in my giant old drafty house. Thusly inspired, the questions below all have to do with the cold. Please only one guess per person, and no googling for answers. Good luck!

Week in review

12-01-2006 016 (Custom).jpg
We turned it up to 11 on Monday of this week, and it stayed one higher all week long. Spinal Tap played on Monday, and though I would have liked to have seen a few more of you who voted for it, I understand that it was the Monday after Thanksgiving, so I’m gonna let this one slide. We still had a good crowd, and they seemed to enjoy Wheel of Terrific games such as Big Bottom and Lick My Love Pump. I’m telling you guys, you’ve got to check out the Wheel. You all would love it.

Check to see if your team made the bold print, read about controversy on Tuesday, a major upset on Wednesday, and a bounty bowl, after the jump.

Eagles vs. Panthers on Monday night

Yeah, it’s been a rough stretch. But here’s the funny thing: We’re still very much alive in the playoff picture, so this game does mean something. I mean, you know you’re gonna watch it anyway, so you might as well watch it on the largest screen in Philly and drink cheap beer and eat dollar dogs and hang out with yours truly. Not only that, but you also get to see a very special Wheel of Terrific on the main stage. Hope to see you there.
