Ping Pong Robots, Quizzo Tonight

Ok, so maybe there won’t be Ping Pong Robots at quizzo, per se, but the video above is pretty freaking amazing. Earlier this week, I had the question: Former #1 ranked player Tim Bollo nearly lost to a robot in what Olympic sport earlier this year? The answer was table tennis, and here is some video of that match. Prepare to have your mind blown.

As for quizzo tonight, we start at Industry at 6:30. Perhaps the funnest quiz of the week, with the added bonuses of French Fry Faceoff and Name that Tune. REcently voted the 3rd best bar in Foobooz, the food and drink is terrific.

On to the Bards at 9:15 p.m. It’s rockin’ every week. Get there early to assure yourself a table. See ya tonight.

Here ya go, our scores through today. With a mere two weeks remaining in the regular season, the intensity level is heating up. Two teams got automatic invites, and 15 others will make the cut. But there are 3 teams tied for 15th place, another two teams one point back, and three more teams 3-points back. Further down, there are a few regular teams who are primed to make a last minute surge, such as Popesack, Sidecardigans, and Hooter and Chuff. And the points are going to start changing rapidly. There is a new BONUS opportunity on the Facebook page that can earn your team points in a hurry. This week, you can earn double points at Industry on Thursday night. Next week, I’ll offer double points at the quiz at Comcast Market (on Tuesday, November 11th at 5:30 p.m.) Get your A-team ready, it’s game time.
