Aye Chihuahua! Well, we didn’t ask about this little guy at Pub Quiz last night, but we did have a Taco Bell question for the trivia-hungry masses. And I do mean masses: We had a great night at Space Room, as always. Round One saw some great questions about The Simpsons, potentially gay presidents, M&Ms [...]

Taco Bell: Think Outside the Bathroom (Space Room)
How dare you!? Firefly is RADICAL! (Shanahan’s)
I have one thing to say about Nathan Fillion after looking at this picture: That man is CLEARLY canadian. I mean, look at those FLAGS on his ROLLERBLADES! He definitely plays on the other side of the border. But if you were thinking that he was gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that — [...]
Hitler Kitties to the Rescue! (Space Room)
Have you heard of Iron Sky? This is a sci-fi movie that posits “what if the Nazis had escaped to the dark side of the moon, and came back to re-invade Earth in the present day?” Well, it seems they aren’t the only folks who crack wise with the Third Reich. There’s also the Hitler [...]
JPP SMAAAAAAAASHHH!!! (Shanahan’s)
Well, didn’t we have a lovely quiz at Shanahan’s last night. Mothers was the theme and everyone came in and ordered their food so politely. It was a mild-mannered crowd at the start, with everyone enjoying all manner of food items and beverages. Round One went well — some great, fun questions in there. And [...]
“Like Sam the Butcher Bringing Alice the Meat” (Belmont Inn)
Ah, a sad day for the Beastie Boys, but last night, our question about Alice, aka Ann B. Davis, helped rock the party. We packed the house as usual at Portland’s best pub quiz with the Thursday Throwdown in full effect! The theme was Cinco de Mayo, in honor of the upcoming holiday, and we [...]
Grease 2: The Reckoning (Space Room)
How did I miss such an obvious joke last night!? I mean, we had a question on Grease 2, and I didn’t throw in a “The Reckoning.” Man, I must be really off my game. Speaking of being off their game — you guys were amazing(ly bad) last night! I kid, I kid… you were [...]
Shakes the Clown (Belmont Inn)
In my weekly “looking for funny images related to the theme quest, I remembered this classic 80s (90s?) comedy — Shakes the Clown. Looking at the tagline, I wonder, how was Bad Santa ever green lit — isn’t it just a blatant ripoff of this film, swapping Santa for the clown? Well, there were no [...]
Shakes in Space… (Space Room)
What glorious mayhem at the Space Room last night! It turned out the Thirsty Lion was refinishing their floors, so we had a slew of refugee quizzers invading Hawthorne’s Hottest bar trivia night. With all the tables packed, we had to double up some teams to accommodate everyone. I guess people love their Shakespeare. The [...]
Everybody Plays the Fool (Shanahan’s)
I’d like to write this post in iambic pentameter, but truth be told, I can’t be arsed. It’s tough enough to write these blogs as it is sometimes, and having to stick to the rules of the writing road might drive me to drink my bottle of ink. Lovely time as always north of the [...]
Drink… er… Think Green (Belmont Inn)
Oh man, did we recycle some stuff last night! Paper! Cups! JOKES! Ahhh… the earth is much better off after all that nonsense, for sure. Another jam-packed bar this week at Portland’s best bar trivia. Week after week, nary a table is available as a bevy of regulars stuff this venue to the gills all [...]
