Enough bonus points can get you DRUNK!

Oh man, what an awesome night at Thirsty Lion!  People were winning champagne, buying ridiculous shots, and even having beer drinking contests with each other.  Okay, that last one was just me seeing how many Blue Moons I could drink while staying coherent.  The answer is 2.  Over 2 hours.  I’m a lightweight, and it’s shameful.

Ugg, Annie from Misery CREEPS ME OUT!  Just watched that trailer again and yeah, it’s a disturbing film fo’ shizzy.
Congratulations to team Not Real Doctors? – who insist on the inflection in their name whenever they can get away with it.  They were third place going into the final challenge round, and snagged the victory [...]

The Thirsty Lion was hoppin last night for some Cinco de Mayo trivia and beers.  The 4-for-$12 Corona deal they were running was enough to get me to have one.  Brought me back to my vacation in Baja.  My *only* family vacation ever to an exotic location.  Good memories of home-made tamales and a barrio [...]

Good night at the Thirsty Lion – despite a couple late people from the ridiculous traffic due to stormy weather.  We started only 5 minutes late though, and were done by 9 somehow.  Welcome to another Oregon Summer!  Heh.
First off, check out this bonus point item brought in:

That’s actual lipstick, people.  I laughed really hard [...]



Hey! Gimme that! What’s wrong with you bad-hair Woody Harrelson?

I love the blatant comb-over Woody sports in Kingpin.  So awesome.  Here’s some quick Jeremy-trivia: my roommate freshman year in college was named Woody.  His real first name was Jeremy, but that quickly became dumb when we got phone calls, so he used his longtime nickname instead.
Congrats this week to Cattle Prodigy, who snagged the [...]



Their Kung Fu is strong!

First off, congrats to the Thirstiest Lions bar team for making it to the money for the third week in a row!  I was lucky enough to snap up a picture of them:

As one of them put it, “They’re kind of a big deal“.  I believe that means they have many leather-bound books, and their [...]



$195 pot @ Thirsty Lion. Nuff said.

Well, not exactly nuff said – they also gave away the $100 gift card for the monthly standings for March (they plan on doing this EVERY month if I understand correctly).  But, they ALSO gave away a free bottle of Champagne.  And they ALSO let people take a shot at spinning the big Wheel o [...]

Great first night for me at Thirsty Lion, where the video quiz rocks your socks.  Thirsty Lion puts up all sorts of awesome stuff, including a free bottle of champagne for getting closest to the Thirsty Lion question of the week – which is a numerical answer, sort of like our old-school final round used [...]

Hey quizzer-onis!
Seems that the warm weather and spring break conditions did not effect the attendance at the Thirsty Lion last night, where we had a whopping $216 pot and a standing room only crowd.  As always, it’s great to see new teams at the quiz, like Three Girls and a Little Man, the McFlys, and [...]
