Face Off for French Fries

Hard to make heads or tails of it, but on the normally slowest week of the year, we had two of our most insanely packed quizzos in months last night. Not sure if it was my promise of an easy quiz or the lure of the Face Off, but we were rocking last night. Hoping it continues tonight at Ugly American at 8 p.m. and Bards at 10:15. Of course, tonight we’ll have two face-offs, with one for the prize and the other one coming for french fries. All new quiz tonight, so feel free to play again. $2 Lagers at Ugly American, and 2 Jack Frost Big Boulder passes to give away tonight at Bards. And I’m not sure yet, but I’m feeling a mystery round potentially in the making. Hope to see ya tonight!

Question of the Week

I asked: aren’t the Flash mobs being blown a little bit out of proportion? It led to me being discredited by pretty much a who’s who of jgt.com commenters, but looking back, I stand by pretty much everything I wrote.

Question of the Week

This man caused an internet sensation when he announced he was running for Stark County Treasurer.

Back in Business

Had the night off last night due to that embarrassing Eagles game, so I went to play the Big Quiz Thing (movie edition) at World Cafe Live. Really was a lot of fun (Koob did a write up about the last one.) We had the lead all game, but at the end they make each of the top 3 teams pick a member to go up front and answer questions, and first one to answer 2 correctly wins. I like the game show aspect, and may use something like it at Quizzo Bowl, but not to determine the outcome of the game. I wasn’t crazy about that part of it. But the rest of it was very entertaining.

But needless to say, while New York runs a fine little quiz, we are in the Quizzo Capital of the World. So come out tonight and play the real deal, will ya? At the Rendezvous at 6:15 p.m. $3 Victory Pints and $2 Bud Lights 16 ouncers. Then we move to the Black Sheep at 8 p.m., where those who played last week got to hear me tell some screaming moron to go back to Jersey. I’m gonna give away a few more prizes tonight in a variety of ways, and the quiz will have a very “Year in Review” feel to it, though not all questions will be Year in Review themed. One quiz this week. My long time husband roommate Trivia Art just moved out, so we have a lot of reorganizing to do around the house. That means that 4 quizzes, and 4 different winners this week. Question of the week coming soon. Hope to see ya tonight!
