I’ll have pics posted on Saturday. In the meantime, check out the podcast I did with Lee about Wilt’s 100 point game, and whether some other single game records will be broken. I’ll also have some very cool Wilt stuff up tomorrow morning. Went to the library this afternoon and found the articles written when he pulled it off. Found some very cool stuff.
We kick it off at Ugly American at 8 p.m. $2 Lagers. You heard me right. On to the Bards at 10:15 p.m. $3 Lagers. We’ve been having a lot of fun at Bards lately, and getting great crowds. $3 fries at both spots. And I woke up with a bit of a sore throat this morning, so expect at least one picture round and TWO music rounds. See ya tonight!
Hubert Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorf was a man with a last name that was 590 letters long (In the headline is the shortened version, you can hear the full version in the video above.) He was born in Hamburg, Germany (supposedly on February 29th, 1904) but emigrated to the US where he landed in Philly. He lived here and in 1952 had a son that he passed on the last name to. According to the Guiness book, he had the longest surname in the world. Does anyone know anything about his son? I’d love to know if he’s still in Philly.
We kick off at Locust Rendezvous at 6:15 p.m. The Jams have been on fire lately. Can you stop them? Be sure to call ahead to get a table. On to the Black Sheep at 8 p.m. It’s been quiet the last couple of weeks. Great chance to get a table. Interesting speed round tonight, and a wild card round dealing with television. Fairly easy quiz, judging by last night’s scores.
