Last night was serendipitous!  I announced that the Thirsty Lion was giving away (to first place) two tickets to see 311 play in September at the beginning of the quiz.  After round one was over, a member of Mustache Flavored Kisses asked me for details, and admitted he’s a huge 311 fan. So, it’s fitting [...]

Heh. Very fun night at The Belmont Inn!  Had a couple of the aforementioned whiskeys, then went home and enjoyed the swiss burger I got to go.  Good burgers at Belmont.  Good whiskey too. To people who have not seen one or the other, both The Avengers and Cabin in the Woods are a great [...]

Moving my table back a bit toward the stage gives us two more close-in tables for people to sit at!  I’ll work on finding the optimum placement for the speakers, so that people aren’t deaf by the end of each show.  Just goes to show you that I care and shit.  =) Congratulations to The [...]

First up, we had a visit from Cameron Whitten, who may be the coolest public official candidate ever!  According to Pub Quizzer Brian, Cameron is always out and about in Portland, talking with people about their concerns.  He showed up last night at the venue wearing his own sign, and I had to get Katie [...]

Well since ever, I guess.  It’s been fun though!  Tuesday I drank with buddies and pretended it was already Cinco De Mayo.  Wednesday I came home and BBQ’d and had a few beers – on the actual day I might be tapped out at this rate. But on to the quiz!  Congratulations to the Human [...]

I’ve had the pasta at Schmizza only once before – mostly because I am drawn to the vast array of delicious pizza they have on display.  But I figured I’d try something new, and was rewarded with a flavorful plate of pasta and delicious bread.  I love food, so good. Congratulations to The Wrong Kind [...]

Did you know Wherefore means “Why”?  What the crap, Billy S.? Congratulations to team The Wrong Kind of Tacky for their first place win at Schmizza last night! Winnars! In second place, team We Heart Brains!  With third place going to the two-person team Reunion Tour!  That last team was actually in first place all [...]

I laughed at this picture: Congratulations to team Hanging Brain for their first place win last night at The Lion! They battled with trivia Kung Fu and ended up on top!  They are doing their best to make the Three Arrow recycling symbol with their hands – it’s kind of hard, you know? In second [...]

Is it funny because it’s true? Congratulations to eco-friendly pub quiz winners Highway Hypnosis for their first place win last night: Brian looks snazzy, but his eyes are closed again!  Sarah on the left told me I looked like a collegiate drama professor in my turtleneck and scarf: I did my best to look stern, [...]

We all go a little crazy, sometimes.  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA! Thank goodness I’m done with taxes this year.  Crazytime is over for another 12 months! Congratulations to team Hanging Brain for their first place win last night at The Lion! Winnars! They beat out a field of over 50 quizzers to take home the win!  In second [...]
