Previous Winners and Venues of the JGTSI

Here are the teams who have won the JGTSI title previously. Is this your summer to reign supreme?

Question of the Week

What game show host was married to Betty White from 1963 until his death in 1981?

Wild Card Week Starts Tonight

Action starts at Sidecar tonight at 9:30. Jitney will not be there tonight, so it’s anybody’s ballgame. If you are on the outside looking in, this is a great shot of getting a win. Hope to see ya tonight!

No One You Know to Perform at JGTSI This Sunday

Excited about the band I snagged for the JGTSI this year. A local folk band called No One You Know, you can check out their latest album here. Great stuff. You’re gonna enjoy these guys.

Here are our final scores…invites went out this morning, and teams in orange have already RSVPd. Teams in yellow have received invites (except for Teflon Don, I need an email address for you guys). Teams in black have declined their invites and record of their achievements have been destroyed and we will move forward as if they never existed.

If you didn’t make the cut, there’s still hope! This is wild card week, and any team winning this week gets an automatic invite. (Will 2-time JGTSI winners Popesack get in via wildcard this week?)

It’s gonna be a great show at a great bar. Excited to do it at Alla Spina. Action will start at 5:30.

Last Night to Grab Points in the JGTSI

This is it, folks. If your team is on the outside looking in, I would highly encourage you to get out tonight. Your best bet for a win is gonna be at Industry at 6:30 p.m. You know the routine: great food, great service, happy hour drinks. On to Bards at 9:15. It’s packed almost every week, so you might wanna get there early. Carl will be hosting tonight.

As for the Invitational, I will be sending out invites on Sunday. If you need a few points, you can earn some on facebook by posting a pic of you in the water or on a boat. Or you can come out tonight and earn a win. Next week will be wild card week, where teams that win will earn an automatic invite to the Big Event, held on the 21st at Alla Spina at 5:30.

Expect a few questions inspired by the Olympics, (though not many actual Olympics questions).

Tonight’s Quiz Will Have the Latest and Greatest of Everything

Ok, first of all, you NEED to read this. Then continue below:

Quizzo tonight begins at the Comcast Center, the tallest and most luxurious building in the city. BYO Bottle Service will make every guest at the quiz feel like a VIP (Vogue Intellectual Passionate). Between rounds, DJs from Miami and Ibiza will be spinning all of the latest club jams. Johnny Goodtimes’s contacts in the dance club scene are going to really pay off here.

On to Alla Spina, where DJ Carl B Sure will be asking questions that are TOOTO (totally out of the ordinary). Carl B is a young quizzo impresario who is looking to transform Philadelphia’s quizzo scene. 8 p.m. until sunrise.

Johnny returns to O’Neals, where you may notice just how crystal clear his voice will be as he asks questions; it’s no wonder, his speakers were made by Finnish soundsmiths. That starts at 8 p.m. and goes until you think you can’t possibly dance to a another Skrillex song; at which point Johnny will put on another Skrillex song and you’ll find a second gear you never knew you had.

AFTERPARTY! You heard me, girls. What’s a party without an afterparty? We’ll be at the City Tap House at 10:15, and we’ll be outdoors. Thanks to Johnny’s high level contacts in the quizzo world, there are going to be some of the most carefully cultivated questions you’ve ever heard in your life. But hey: that’s all part of the TOOTO experience.

Wait, how do we know this is going to work? I can’t explain that due to nondisclosure agreements, but trust you me, tonight’s quiz will have the LATEST and the GREATEST of everything. It’s going to be phenomenal.

Question of the Week

Who released The Swimming Song in 1973?

JGTSI Scores Are Posted!

You thought they were never gonna be posted. You can admit it. You thought I was just gonna wing it and invite 16 random teams. But no! I finally sat down and added up the scores, and here they are with one week left in the tourney.

A few things to note: I know a couple of teams change their names. You’ll need to contact me and let me know. Also, there is a new Facebook challenge, so if you’re looking to earn a spot at the Invitational, it’s a great way to earn some quick points.

The Big Event will be at Alla Spina on August 21st at Alla Spina, with live music between rounds. More details on that soon.
