Thanks for the good wishes! Sorry I’m slow to respond, but yes, Polly, the championship belt is now going to EXTREME (full capitals) mode for the new quiz at Hal’s…but it will still maintain it’s highish quality paper form! Yay for Open Office Draw!

Sorry to see you lose a venue Pat. I’m sure you’ll be swinging from another Quizzy branch soon enough. Now, the real question is, how are you going to amend that championship belt?

I’m not sorry. You are a great Quizmaster Pat. You deserve a venue where the food is good and prices are reasonable, so they draw a crowd. I think Old Chicago will fold soon too. Plus the Gypsy just had a creepy vibe. It was like a dungeon or something. It’s the “neighborhood” old faithful places that have been around a long time that flourish with Pub Quiz. Belmont, Space Room, Hals…those places are always full up. The staff makes a difference too. I go back to the ones where I actually know the servers by name. That’s because they are friendly and welcoming and introduce themselves.
