The Improved Holland Gin Cock-Tail

Hmm, a very nice ‘n’ easy quiz tonight at the ol’ Belmont Inn, which was surprising considering people were trying out new cocktails for bonus points all night long… Thought there’d be some drunken shenanigans for sure considering the venue, but maybe the froo-froo drinks just don’t get the fires a-burnin’ quite like those sweet, [...]

Hey, nice lil’ quiz tonight. Some folks tried some drinks for the first time, and I think enjoyed some of the Maiden’s delicious specialty cocktails. The Yazi Drop, with Yazi ginger infused vodka shaken with muddled lemon and a sugared rim, was a popular choice, as was an interesting new one made with pepper infused [...]

Wow, so many Monty Python fans, so little time… lessee, I don’t even understand all the references but I did receive Spam (but not “a lot,” heh heh heh… just a can) tonight from Ben on C Average, so no matter what happened after that I was happy. I mean, it says “Crazy Tasty” on [...]

What I learned tonight:
It is as an indisputable, cardinal FACT that if a Quizmaster such as myself forgets to print off one of his handouts, and doesn’t realize it until 2 minutes before he has to drive to his venue to set up his P.A… yessir, it is a FACT, an Encyclopedic FACT, that his [...]

Hey, thanks all who joined us for some super fun Halloween action at the ol’ Belmont Inn!
Had at least 20 costumes, and many of them were just awesome! Where to begin…? Lessee, dug Desperately Avoiding Last Place’s gal who went as the Black-Eyed Peas. She put the letter P all over her black-clad self–I thought [...]



105

Hoog. Wow. Okay, so tonight was a little nuts, to put it mildly. 105 people showed up for some hot Pub Quiz action, choosing to answer questions for money instead of watching a World Series nobody in their right mind in the Northwest gives a flying rat’s ass about (flying rat’s asses, though… now THAT [...]



House Envy

Saw lots of sweet before ‘n’ after shots tonight, including YMBP guy’s saucy lil’ pool renovation, Boner in Sweatpants guy’s bitchin’ vehicular overhaul, and Tx guy’s shower curtain to regular curtain transformation (which he sewed himself!) I have to admit to some house envy this week, as I’ve now finished a triple threat of quizmastering [...]

***UPDATE (Received 10/10/08)***
Looks like I won’t be filling in for Toni/Dave this week at Biddy’s after all y’all. Sorry to disappoint anyone who was planning on coming on my four-quizzes-in-four-nights marathon. Looks like it’ll be just three out of four nights! You should still join me, though, though I can’t promise a prize for ya! [...]

Tonight we were up against a struggling economy and the joke of a running mate that is Sarah Palin going up against Uncle Joe Biden. But we still had a small, strong crowd of some of my favorite teams going at it, and one of the tighter, more exciting pub quizzes I’ve had the pleasure [...]

Wow some exciting action at the ol’ Belmont Inn tonight, what with the unranked Oregon State Beavers HANDING #1 ranked USC their ASSES right there, on the screen, as my quiz was going. The place was jammed with people screaming their heads off and making me feel like a rock star (even though the cheers [...]
