It was a big night at the Night Light this week – 54 people! It was the first Sunday pot big enough to split between three teams. The winning team named themselves “Cats do it doggy style too” – I think making a whole room laugh gave them good karma. Right behind them in second [...]

Oh man, I’m so glad I subbed @ the Voleur
Because one of the teams was named “My Spoon is too Big”. For those not in the know, check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5oMnLYCkw0 It’s one of Don Hertzfeldt’s genius low-tech but brilliant cartoons. His stuff really kicks ass. This one is tame – a warning: some of his other stuff is definitely rated R and/or messed [...]
Evil Geniuses (Belmont Inn)
Before I begin, consider, if you will, the cape. Of all the terrible fashions to come back in style, why hasn’t there been a resurgence of the cloak? I, for one, beg J. Crew or Banana Republic to get in on this action. Why? Well frankly, my neck and shoulders get cold in the winter, [...]

4 Way final round!
Another crazy finish in Hood River. Four teams, not three, headed into the final challenge round, thanks to a 2-way tie for 3rd place! The Sandbar Developers came from tied-for-third to the top spot! All teams bet big and only Sandbar knew this week’s question – grats! In second came The Gargamels, who were strong [...]
Maiden all caped up
As I arrived on Wednesday night at The Maiden, there was nary a seat to spare under the colored lights. We had two teams front and center, celebrating birthdays! This is a busy week for the Maternity ward I guess, since Tuesday night I encountered the same thing! Not to take away from Mary and [...]
Bridgeport the caped crusade
Boisterously we celebrated Evil Villains and all that black caped badness that came on with the 60 people that showed up to Quiz with us on Tuesday night at the Bridgeport. The fact that Bridgeport had BLACK NAPKINS on the tables really helped out in the efforts for bonus points, as some teams cleverly fashioned [...]
Don’t Steal My Cans Homeless Man!!… o and We Hate Oprah!! The Thirsty Lion 3/25/09
Those are my favorite team names of the night, ‘Don’t Steal My Cans Homeless Man!’ and ‘We Hate Oprah!!’. Sometimes when team signs up, the name just takes you by surprise and you’re like ‘I know there’s a story behind this.’ And when you ask you get typically one of two responses, which is funny [...]
Darkness Falls Across The Land
So we had an intimate quiz with 3 evil teams coming out to play. Everyone donned their black capes; they even brought me one!! So the fun commenced. The bingo was a toughy that resulted in no bonus points winners. Booo! Round 2 was a fun game of A-Z with It’s Business Time holding onto [...]
