On September 13th, 1899, this man became the first person to ever die in an auto accident. Who was he?
JGTAI Heads Into Week 2
Alright gang, the JGTAI is now underway. Quite a bit to report on, so let’s get to it…for those who don’t know who the Invitational works, it’s pretty simple: teams earn points for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishes. They can also earn points via Facebook Challenges. (There’s one up right now: post a pic of you in a football jersey or t-shirt of your favorite team). The top 15 point scorers, at the end of the 10 weeks, earn an invite to the Big Event. We then have a wild card week, where any team that wins earn an automatic invite, though that’s not how I’d recommend making a living. We’ll hold the big event on November 19th. Venue and musical act to be announced in good time. So get your squad together, and come on out…quizzo season is here.
JGT Hosting a Monday Quiz by the Water
Hey gang, for the next 3 Mondays starting tonight, I’ll have a quiz at Fishtown Hops, an outdoor beer garden right next to Sugarhouse. They’ve got free parking, plus a free bus that will get you there as well. Going to be a gorgeous evening to be outdoors, so come on out and join me. Quiz starts at 6 p.m.
JGT and Chip Hosting a Comedy Show Next Week
We Have Fun!, a new variety show hosted by Chip Chantry and Johnny Goodtimes, will debut next Monday the 18th at the GoodGood Comedy Theatre. We’ll have Abby Rosenquist, winner of Philly’s Funniest 2017 at Helium, as well as Philly rock legend Kenn Kweder performing a couple of tunes and sitting down for an interview. And we’ll have hijinks and yes, probably a bit of trivia. Tickets are a mere $5. Gonna be a very funny show. Hope you can make it.

Back to School Week This Week
Young people across the country are starting to head back to school this week and next, and so we are going to be doing a “Back to School” theme at quizzo this week. All questions will be about school. We’re also partnering with the PPEHRC again, and I would GREATLY appreciate you guys bringing in some school supplies we can donate to local students in need. If you are not playing this week, but would still like to donate, we will have a donation box at Shibe Sports, and anyone who donates there will get $5 off anything in the store. I know we’ve got a giving group, and would love to present our friend Cheri Honkala with a large stash of school supplies. Thanks in advance, and I’ll see ya this week!
