Alright, to be clear, Shanahan’s is not usually the place we’d talk about exploding manholes. (That’d be Joystick Joe’s Jerk Chicken Menagerie, down the street.) But on Tuesday, in addition to Bieber Fever, the city of Vancouver had Manhole Mania, too.

Yes, we were swamped with dirty words on Tuesday’s Pub Quiz — dirty words, and dirty birds, as Josh and Adam from Belmont Inn’s “Can You Smell the Stank on My Hangdown” were the latest to venture north of the border to take on Washington’s best quizzers. And despite their best efforts, they weren’t able to steal the Shanahan’s bacon and bring it back to PDX. Instead they fell just a few points short of the Challenge Round, which was packed full with six teams.

And coming out at the head of the pack when the night was all said and done was the Grokstars! They put in the big ZERO wager to outfox all the other teams looking to take home the night’s top honors. Well played Grokstars!

And as a result of their victory, they get their photo taken with my new and improved camera — which, depending on how you hold it, ALSO makes phonecalls! Check out how much better the Grokstars look now that I’ve got the proper equipment:

That’s all for this week, folks… Until next Tuesday, be well, play hard, and try to remember everything you can!
