Bounty Bowl Tonight

Ok, you’re last chance to earn in invite to the JGTSI is tonight. I’ll have details about Sunday’s band tomorrow. Excited about the duo we’ve got for this one.

As for tonight, we start at Ugly American at 8 p.m. A GREAT shot to earn an invite, though Extra Testicle has won 2 out of the last 3 weeks. On to the Bards at 10:15 p.m., where there is STILL a $40 bounty on the head of Steak Em Up. Beat them and take first place and you’ll be up $80 in prizes. Big time. Action starts at 10:15 p.m. See ya tonight!

Final JGTSI 3 Scores Posted

Here they are, the Final scores to the third annual JGTSI. I’ve contacted most teams, but there are a few whose info I don’t have handy. I still need to contact Extra Testicle, Interim Team Name, Ruby Tuesday, and Bengali Tiger. If you’re on one of those teams shoot me a line (johnny@johnnygoodtimes.com) so I can give you an invite.

As for this week, it’s Wild Card Week. If you didn’t make the cut, you’ve still got a shot. Just finish first or second this week at any quiz, and you can earn an automatic invite. Your best chances? Certainly North Star is your best chance. After that, I’d say Ugly American. Get your squad together. We’re gonna have a lot of fun next Sunday. Hope you can make it.

Quick News and Notes

–Here’s my latest in the Philly Post, about SEPTA winning “Best large Transit System in North America” award. Please check it out.

-JGTSI is going down on August 12th at City Tap House at 6 p.m. We’re gonna do it outdoors if possible. More details next week.

-Things have been a little hectic lately, and I’ve probably been a little haggard at quizzo. (Even more so than usual). Well, I’m actually working full time at Comcast for a couple of weeks in addition to my normal quizzo duties. I know, I know, I’m an inspiration to you all. Anyways, I’m basically working on keeping this page updated all day, from 9-5. It’s a pretty good way to see what’s going on in the Olympics as they happen, and an excuse to watch a ton of Olympics.

As far as quizzes go, I want to thank Mike Minion, who has actually written the vast majority of the questions over the past two weeks, since I’ve had almost no time to write questions. As much as I am loathe to publicly acknowledge Minion, whose ego certainly doesn’t need the boost, he has been a huge help.

-I’m telling you, team handball is the best sport in the Olympics. Root for Iceland, who is trying to the first ever gold in the country’s history. Join the movement! (Which thus far consists of me, Trivia Art from Foobooz, and my buddy Gregg, who wrote this excellent article on why handball isn’t more popular in America.)
