Dress for the High Seas at Quizzo Bowl X

5782789572_c5564afa5f_zWe are definitely going with a nautical theme at Quizzo Bowl X, and I highly encourage teams to dress with a nautical theme. Whether that means pirate, mermaid, captain, or pompous jackass preparing to sail with a popped collar and a sweater around his shoulders, that’s up to you.  Best dressed team will be rewarded with quite a bounty. TICKETS TO QUIZZO BOWL X CAN BE PURCHASED HERE.

Quizzo Bowl Afterparty

Screen shot 2014-02-04 at 9.19.25 AM

The Afterparty is more important than ever this year, as Quizzo Bowl is gonna be a full day affair. And I’ve hooked us up with the perfect space: The Lodge at Winterfest, a pop-up bar by the guys who do Morgan’s Pier. An awesome space (gets a perfect 5 on Yelp), with lots of room for our crowd, great beers on tap, cheap but good food, fire pits and s’mores. And it’s walking distance from the ship! The band will keep rockin’ and rolling into the night, we’ll have tons of great giveaways, and a few surprises along the way. And yes, you’re ticket gets you into the afterparty free of charge. Gonna be a great day of nerd camaraderie. Get your tickets today!

Your New Favorite Band, TJ Kong & the Atomic Bomb, Will Be Playing at Quizzo Bowl X


If there’s one thing to be said about Quizzo Bowl, it’s that I take the appointment of what band to pick pretty damn seriously. They have to set the tone for my biggest night of the year, they have to be creative, they have to be fun, and they have to be insanely talented. From Nate Wiley and the Crowd Pleasers to Welcome to My Face, one of the things I’ve been proud of over these past ten years is that the music on the show has always been absolute Grade A. And seeing how this is the 10th Quizzo Bowl, the grandest of them all, it was imperative that I pick a band that could live up to my (and your) outsized expectations. I have done so. Those of you who have seen TJ Kong and the Atomic Bomb will vouch for me here: this will be one of the most ass-kickin’, honkey tonkin’, jive-talkin’, tightrope walkin’ bands you will ever see in your life. I have already told the insurance company to be prepared because they may very well tear the roof off of the sucker. For those of you who will be seeing them for the first time, I’m just going to tell you this in advance: you’re welcome.

VOTE for a New Name for Our Store

I became minority owner of a sports store in Midtown Village a few months ago. I haven’t been promoting it too much yet, because we’ve been trying to move out old inventory and get our own inventory in the store to put our stamp on the place. But soon I’ll be bugging the hell out of all of you about the place: just a fair warning.

The store will be undergoing many changes in the coming months, the first of which is the name…we are going with a vintage vibe for the store, and need you to help us decide on a name. We posted 5 names that we all liked, and want you guys to determine what the end result is. So please go to our page and vote, and anyone who votes gets 15% off anything in the store. And please help us spread the word. Thanks!
