Rocky Horror Balboa Show This Sunday

The Rocky Horror Balboa Show quiz is going down this Sunday at the Trestle Inn. “That’s great, Johnny, but what the hell does that mean?” some of you are asking. It means that we are going to do the first quiz in the history of the world that combines your knowledge of Magenta with your knowledge of Clubber Lang, your knowledge of Riff Raff with your knowledge of Uncle Paulie.  How much do you know about two of the most remarkable movies of the mid-1970s…and the ridiculous Rocky sequels since. This is gonna  be a helluva fun quiz. Hope you can make it out. Action starts at 8 p.m. See ya there!

1929 World Series Starts Today!

Last year, I had a lot of fun carrying the 1911 World Series as if it were live. This year I’m fast forwarding a few years, to 1929, when the Mighty A’s took on the Chicago Cubs, who were trying to break a 21 game World Series drought. Analysis, interviews, and awesome photos, the goal is to cover the Series as if I had a sports blog at the time and was covering it live. If you’re a baseball fan, I assure you, it’s gonna be a lot of fun. Click here to see our “sponsors”, how much tickets cost, and who the unlikely hero of Game 1 was.
