Quizzo Tonight

Week 2 gets underway tonight at North Star at 7 p.m. Half off mussels and hummus, and I’ll have two tickets to give away to the North Star show of your choice, as well as our regular Name That Tune. If you’re looking for a win in the JGTSI, this is a great opportunity.

On to Sidecar at 9:30. Always a great time. Great food, rotating beers, and a terrific (and pretty damn smart) staff. Still wide open there as well. 5 different winners in the past 5 weeks. Hope to see ya tonight!

JGT Power Rankings

Ok, so they’re two days late and numerous dollars short. Sorry. I was outta town on Monday and spent yesterday playing catchup. So here ya go. These do not include this week’s quizzes thus far.

1. Duane’s World (Black Sheep). 5 wins in a row keep them on top. A major test tonight, as the Jesters come to town. Last week: #1

2. Jesters of Tortuga (CTH/Bards). Lost at City Tap, but a win on THursday coupled with a Jams loss keeps them in the 2-hole. Last week: #2

3. We Got Nothin’/Savage Ear (O’Neals). A win in Double OT at an O’Neals packed with top teams get vaults the into the #3 spot.

4. Jams (Locust Rendezvous). A devastating loss at the Vous drops them a spot in the rankings. Last week: #3

5. Penis Penis Vagina Butts (City Tap House). A 10-point win over the Jesters launches them onto the national consciousness. Last week: NR

6. L. Ron Hubbard’s Diabetics (Locust Rendezvous). Are the Diabetics back? A perennial Top-5 team, they had fallen on hard times recently. But a blowout win at the Vous last week has caused other teams to take notice. Last week: NR

7. Careless Fister (North Star). Two straight wins at North Star. This is a team to keep an eye on. Last week: #6

8. New and Improved Team Name (O’Neals). Lose a heartbreaker in OT at O’Neals. Still think this team has the talent to make a run at the Top 5. Last week: #7

9. Underground Bard (CTH). A third place finish knocks them well out of the Top 5. Be interesting to see if they make a move to Industry to get their rep up. Last week: #4

T-10. Laika, the First Dog in Space (Sidecar). Return from South America to get a win at Sidecar and rocket into the top 10. Last week: NR

T-10. Why Can’t Us? (Industry) The former top team at Ugly American is looking to make a run at the new Pennsport spot. Can they keep it going?

12. Exhausted Nihilists.

13. Hobo Cop

14. Sidecardigans.

15. Inkspot

16. Popesack

17. Jitney Spears.

18. I Am a God; Where Are My Damn Croissants?
