Bad Belmont Santa (Belmont Inn)

December 26th, 2011 at 10:56 am » Comments (0)

Man oh man, did we welcome the lil baby Jesus with some gusto on Thursday night. Our annual Holiday-themed quiz is always a merry affair, and with Belmont Inn’s $2 well drinks and 20+ beers on tap, there’s a whole lot of joy to go around. The Round Two “Question or Carol” round was incredibly [...]



Black Santa’s Revenge (Shanahan’s)

December 20th, 2011 at 11:31 pm » Comments (0)

What an holly jolly night of quiz at Shanahan’s in Vancouver. They didn’t just come out for the most fun quiz of the year! They also came for a special screening of “Black Santa’s Revenge,” the most violent, swear-filled, and nudity packed Christmas film there ever was — all 20 minutes of it! We played [...]



Alright Sailor, Who Approved This? (Belmont Inn)

December 16th, 2011 at 12:13 pm » Comments (0)

You know, if the democrats really wanted to drive home the point of government excess, they’d point out that only a republican president (George HW Bush) has allowed Cher to record a music video on a US Navy aircraft carrier. Talk about government excess. Just watch the video (if you can… my eyes started burning [...]



Paula “The Astronaut” Abdul (Space Room)

On one hand, I had a reason for picking this blog title — the Diva did play a big part in last night’s Space Room quiz — but on the other hand, once I found the above photo, I realized that ask the Internet, and ye shall receive. In fact, the site that this came [...]



The Power of Love (Shanahan’s)

December 14th, 2011 at 11:13 am » Comments (0)

Oh god, after last night’s quiz at Shanahan’s, how can ANYONE’S heart go on? An absolutely inspired Name That Tune round 2 was a great equalizer on the night, allowing teams that felt long gone to climb back into the fray. But I’m getting ahead of myself. The night started off with a difficult Round [...]



Soylent Green Cereal (Belmont Inn)

Soylent Green Cereal — That Familiar That Everyone Loves™. Ah we had a rip-roaring time at the Belmont last night. Why? Well because everyone loves cereal, do they not? If I had to pick my favorite of all time, it would have to be Cap’n Crunch, so it was fitting that the last question of [...]



Horatio Sans Milk (Space Room)

We had two scoops of fun last night at the Space Room where the bar pulled out all the stops for our Cereal themed quiz. What does that mean? Well, for food specials, “Apple Jacks” were on the menu—that means apple flavored pancakes. We also had great specialty cocktails and other viddles dreamed up for [...]



A Bowl Full of Fun (Shanahan’s)

December 7th, 2011 at 1:46 pm » Comments (0)

Oh what a tasty night we had up in Vancouver, home of the Shaney Fries. Another stellar crow of quizzers rolled out to battle it out over trivia, and another team walked out with fistfuls of cash. You know that toy surprise inside the box of cereal? Sometimes this job makes me feel like I’m [...]



The Cult of Pub Quiz (Belmont Inn)

December 2nd, 2011 at 11:26 am » Comments (0)

It’s kind of culty, isn’t it? I mean, you all gather every week, drink the kool aid, and bet berated by a man with a microphone who seems to have all the answers — right? Well, kneel before Zod, nerdos, because we had another great night at Portland’s wildest trivia night. Five teams ended up [...]



Mommy Dearest (Space Room)

December 1st, 2011 at 12:39 pm » Comments (0)

It’s kind of hard to believe that after roughly 12,434 quizzes I’ve run, this is the first time that we’ve ever asked a question about Mommy Dearest. I mean, that movie is SO FUNNY. We could ask about it on Comedy-themed quizzes, Mother’s Day-themed quizzes, and Dry Cleaning-themed quizzes. The questions practically write themselves. Alright, [...]
