The makers of this sweatshirt should be expecting a call from my lawyers. Not cool, G-Men. Not cool. Yes, it’s Superbowl Sunday, and yes I’m a little delayed in posting the blog. Sorry folks! Much like you, I’m up to my armpits in buffalo wings, and it’s a little hard to type with these cheeto-crusted [...]

QUESTION: 1. A “one” followed by 18 zeroes is known as a WHAT? A. Quadrillion; B. Quintillion; C. Septillion; D. Octillion. ANSWER: That’s how many people we packed into Belmont last night. (also, B.

Question: What is the lowest point in America? Answer: Kirstie Alley… wait… no… Death Valley! They rhyme, and Kirstie was the answer to the previous question — you can see how I’d get confused. In fact, confusion reigned supreme at The Belmont last night, as I made my triumphant return to the Thursday Throwdown. First [...]

Subbing for JPP three weeks in a row was awesome.  Thanks for all the fun!  I’ll miss the jeers, and calls of “You suck!”  So much love. About 50 quizzers showed last night at The Belmont Inn, and we had ourselves some fun.  Team Five Geeks of the Apocalypse took first in round one, scoring [...]

I definitely needed some food in me, since my cold medicine was kickin’ in by the time we got under way at The Belmont Inn last night! It was a blasty blast as always, subbing for JPP at the B.I.!  Had one team of ladies that just wanted to play for fun, afterward they said [...]

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.

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 [...]
