I’m a little off my game tonight. Little tired and I used up all my speed at tonight’s rousing drug-themed quiz, so I may not be as clever and cute and obnoxious as usual.
We had to turn teams away tonight to stay at the Pub Quiz USA team limit of 21, and still 90 of you joint-toking, rail-sniffing, shroom-munching, pill-popping geniuses managed to pack on in. We got off to a rough-ish start when all my copies disappeared and I had to run next door to Zupan’s and crank out some more copies (I’m still pretty convinced at least one team took more forms than they were supposed to but heck with it). I of course put the page in wrong two different times and wound up cranking out 12 copies that were completely useless, at 15 cents a pop, then had to wait in line for five minutes to get more change. Fun times! Fortunately, Executive Assistant Renee held down the fort like a pro, signing people in, dealing with weird requests and just being generally awesome. I know I’m biased but I’m lucky to have the best assistant in all of Pub Quiz.
From there it was relatively smooth sailing. All of you were lovely and fun as always except for one. Yes I’m talking to you, guy who complained about something every 15 minutes and was wrong more than half the time and who invaded my personal space relentlessly and told me how to do my job. Yes you, good sir from team Tater O’Neal who leaned against my thigh as I was wasting everyone else’s time looking up something on the internet that I KNEW you were dead, completely wrong about but was merely trying to be nice. Yes, YOU!
Everyone else though, thank you for making this job so easy. Thank you for reminding me of some movies I’d forgotten about, like Traffic and the pot-smoke-in-the-van scene in the Muppet Movie. That’s some good shit right there.
Congrats to Don’t Take Beige Food While Pregnant or Nursing, who owned this game tonight with an impressive score of 776, possibly the highest score I’ve ever seen at Pub Quiz! Yowza!
I wish I had more for ya, but I’m just tanked tonight. And I just smoked the hugest bowl of all time.

Thanks for the props Justin. I am glad my ability to do simple math, enter people’s team names, collect money and make change has not gone unnoticed
Bummer you had to call it an early night, but we can only hope some Belmont Inners turned the evening into a drug-fueled bonanza in our honor.
