An all-new quiz tonight at North Star at 7 pm, and Sidecar at 9:15. Regular quiz this week, no theme. We’ve got $3 Kenzos and half off mussels and hummus at North Star. As far as earning JGTAI points, I’d say North Star, O’Neals, and Ugly American are your best chances to get a win. No superior teams at any of those 3. And I think there might be a few questions tonight about Vikings. Hope to see ya tonight!

Quizzo Tonight

My latest in the Philadelphia Post, about an artist who calls himself the Sandman.
Autumn Invitational Update
Here are the scores after Week 1. This does not take into account Monday or Tuesday of this week, or the physical challenges.
This Invite is gonna be a good one. It’s going to be in November at City Tap House in November 18th. In addition to our normal frivolity, we’re also going to be defending Philly’s honor…we’re going to be going head to head with several other cities in the first ever Tycho Brahe Cup. We’re gonna honor one of the most eccentric nerds in world history with a trophy that will be awarded to the top city. More details on the event soon, but just know this…you won’t just be playing this season for your team’s honor, but for the city’s honor. And to do so, you must earn an invite.If you’re looking to score some points and get in the mix, head on over to the facebook page for the latest physical challenge.
Kids Quizzo Tonight
We kick off at Rendezvous at 6:15, where they’ve got Widmer Shaddock IPA Pints and $2 Rolling Rock cans. On to the Black Sheep at 8 p.m. All kids questions. This is acutally the same quiz from earlier in the week. If you played already this week, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow for a new quiz. As for tonight’s quiz, I’d expect a few questions on classic toys. A stacked Steak Em Up team finished 3rd in it last night. Will favorites Duane’s World and The Jams go down tonight? We’ll see.
I am actually headed to Pittsburgh tomorrow. Long story, but we were supposed to go to Detroit for their big Quizzo championships but the plans fell through. By the time they fell through, we already had hotel rooms in Pittsburgh we couldn’t cancel on. So a few of us said, “What the hell?” and we’re taking a road trip to Pittsburgh tomorrow. Gonna go to a Pirates game and then hopefully Fallingwater. Anyways, Mike Minion will be filling in for me and hosting his Young at Heart quiz on Thursday, so you are welcome to play again then.
