Black is the new black

And apparently, it’s not being racist to ask for points for BEING black. Or being racist to award points for being black. Away we went last night, with a nice little crowd of our hard core quizzers gathered about in teams. And then there was Barry. Just Barry. He came alone, he announced that he [...]

Just Kidding Guys!!! It is always awesome to head out to the Gresh for the Thursday night quiz at Bogey’s! Especially when it’s like last night and we had almost a full house!! Our pot got up to $72 bucks last night which for out in the Gresh is a pretty big deal. We had [...]

Rockin’ the Belmont is a distinctive treat for Quizmasters. On one hand, there’s always a raucous crowd and lots of laughs. On the other hand, some of you know-it-alls really know how to stick it to a Quizmaster. Well tonight, I had my revenge. To quote poet laureate Shaquille O’Neal, in the last question of [...]

Apparently it gets more people to come to pub quiz. Well okay, to be fair, an amazing playoff game between Orlando and LA went into overtime tonight! We watched the game on the big screen at the pub though, and it was awesome. Remember, you can play trivia and watch the game at Nepo 42! [...]

A lovely evening at Voleur. There was a pleasant breeze running through the taps and the wafting aroma of fries enticed people in off the streets to the alluring glow of pub quiz. I’m pleased to see so many new faces showing up at Voleur. I guess threats do work! If only I could transfer [...]



Just For Shits and Giggles I’m Starting a New Contest for The Quizmasters… How many “Your Mom” Answers Did You Get This Week? The Thirsty Lion 6/10/09

That’s right QM’s let’s start tallying this strange phenomena where teams who can’t get an answer fill in the obligatory ‘Your Mom’. So far this week ‘My Mom’ has been the current secretary of the US Treasury, is depicted on the $100 bill, Sang the theme song to Goldeneye and apparently starred in The Shining. [...]

Some pub quizzers were nice enough to bring me some chocolate coins for the Money money money theme! I put them in a dish that Deb hunted up for me and people swarmed upon and there was much rejoicing. (yay.) Boners for Croners (aka The Dirty Bastards) took first place amidst a beautiful summer evening [...]



What was with all the Fruit questions?

June 10th, 2009 at 9:36 am » Comments (0)

The Sheep Shaggers and Dazed & Confused really ripped on each other every time a fruit was mentioned. While I love me a good shenanigan, it was just too easy for them. I like them to work for their friendly banter and love-hate insults! Tonight the Sheep Shaggers took first place, correctly guessing Ethiopia as [...]

We had a small crowd tonight; most likely due [...]
