If You Love Music, You Have to Play Quizzo Tonight

Two music rounds, one of which is one of my favorite rounds ever. A crazy quiz, with a geography round as well. This is a really, really fun quiz. Do not miss it. A couple of quick thoughts: first of all, be sure to get your question of the week. Secondly, if your team is looking for a win, North Star is probably your best shot. We’ve got some good teams so far, but no dominant team yet. If you are going to play at Sidecar, get there early. Way early. Like an hour to two hours early. Seriously. It’s that packed.

Quizzo Tonight

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!

Happy Birthday to Philadelphian Hubert Wolfe­schlegel­stein­hausen­berger­dorf


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.
