First of all, enjoy the Backstreet Boys while you read the post. [Right click on the link above to open in a new window.] It might be distracting if you’re surprised, like I was, how disgusting well you know the words to the song. In fact I was shocked at how well, I knew so [...]



Rollover in effect

July 31st, 2008 at 4:29 pm » Comments (0)

Though we had a small-ish crowd at The Maiden we had a nice little pot of cash due to the rollover cash from The Maiden’s early victory a couple of weeks ago.
We cozied up with some panini sandwiches (the house recommendation) and all was good with bonus points and all. The teams all did quite [...]



What’s our most popular item? Well drinks…

Okay, so CC Slaughters is not exactly what we would call a “dining” destination. We come to dance, party, hang out, quiz, smoke and snack. Their most popular food item (I think it may be their only food item, aside from the snack mix they serve on the tables) is the old chicken strips and [...]



Yes, I gave them METH…

No, I’m not a Quizmaster, turned dope dealer. What I mean is I gave them the answer, the correct spelling of METHAMPHETAMINE, in the handout last night. Doh! I totally forgot that the drug handout had it spelled out clearly. Good thing everyone knows how to copy well…
A bunch of folks told me that Fear [...]



Non-commercial?

Sadly, there were no commercials or trivia or any pub quizzing happening last night at CC Slaughters. Except for the lovely KC and Dani, everyone else must have been out enjoying the sun, on vacation or washing their hair…
Thanks to Bruce, Ira and Jeremy for helping me scramble to get the sound up and running. [...]



A little quiet on the Western front

After a gangbuster crowd last week with our “new” old friends at the Parkway Station, it was decidely a little smaller. We still managed to have some fun.
It was a pretty tough quiz, especially round 2. Thanks to all the teams for hanging in there and keeping up good spirits! Wonder Woman and Company managed [...]



What’s all the whiff-whaff?

Just a bit of whiff-whaff at the Bridgeport. Smaller crowd than usual (I suppose it is that vacation-y time of year). But those of us that were there had a good time, methinks.
It was fun to hear your stories about the excellent women in your lives and to see some of them in the flesh! [...]



Return of the Pub Quiz… to Hillsboro

July 4th, 2008 at 1:34 pm » Comments (0)

We had some old-fashioned, all-American, pub quiz fun last night at the Parkway Station, our old stomping grounds in Hillsboro. What a warm welcome from all y’all and Virginian the new owner! There were streamers and hats and tablecloths and everything. You shouldn’t have, you really shouldn’t have…
The game was tight for the top teams [...]



Toe to toe with Amerigo

Happy Independence Day!
Fun night at good ole Bridgeport. Thanks to the lovely Carly for her expert assistance. I have to admit, I thoroughly enjoyed putting together the America-themed playlist. My favorites (and yours, too from the lip-synching I witnessed) were Neil Diamond, James Brown and the Team America theme song - Fuck yeah!
Note to self: [...]



So kind to the sub.

With poor Alisa sick and trying to quickly recover before they head on their grand European adventure, I was happy to step in as Substitute QM at ye olde Bridgeport. And thanks to the Bridgeportians for being lovely! Haven’t been back since my training days so it’s fun to see the familiar faces.
We had a [...]
