You know, sometimes I ask myself, “If Snooki can write a book, why can’t I?” And then I realize that I don’t have the chops. The bangs. The artificial tan. The glue-on nails. The fake eyelashes. The backing of a major media conglomerate who is trying to make every penny it can from my fleeting, [...]

That Old Black Magic (Shanahan’s)
Who made all the crowds magically appear at Shanahan’s these past two weeks? Maybe it was Gob, but it wasn’t a trick — A trick is something a whore does for money…. Or cocaine! But the crowds held up at the Tuesday Tussle, Vancouver’s only Pub Quiz — maybe they were after Shanahan’s take of [...]
The dream of the 80s is alive in Vancouvria (Shanahan’s)
Oh man, did we have a rocking’ 80′s-themed quiz in Vancouver, or what!? It really shouldn’t be all that surprising — the dream of the 80′s is still alive in Vancouvria, anyway… right comrades? We had a PACKED house full of new teams and veteran quizzers alike. It wasn’t just the 80s theme that pulled [...]
We’re Just Getting Sharted… (Shanahan’s)
The above image is the only one I could find on themed with the title of today’s post that wasn’t disgusting or terrible. But the fact is, there was some discussion of sharting at last night’s quiz, and I couldn’t just gloss over it. But that ickiness aside, we had a great night at Shanahan’s [...]
Urgent! Click now and you could win millions!
Classic bait and switch! It’s really just a blog post from me, Quizmaster Marcus, filling in for JPP at ye olde Shanahan’s last night. But I could have been just any guy off the street, couldn’t I? Just breeze in, collect some money, ask some trivia, and leave! But I’m no grifter, the cash and [...]
Black Santa’s Revenge (Shanahan’s)
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 [...]
The Power of Love (Shanahan’s)
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 [...]
A Bowl Full of Fun (Shanahan’s)
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 [...]
Be gone, Tolkeinites!
Aaaaaactually, they prefer to be called “Ringers.” That’s what we learned at Pub Quiz last night — it was our cult and cult classic themed quiz, and I can’t figure out which of those categories the Lord of the Rings fits into. I’m also going to say that I don’t so much care. Take that, [...]
High-Wattage, Low Priced (Shanahan’s)
What a night at Shanahan’s this week! We had a HUGE cash prize since the house team won last week, and competition was fierce to get the more than $130 first place prize. Six teams were wrassling for the cash, and the thifty theme made it all the more competitive because these Vancouver folks know [...]
