“We had 3 Vegetarian’s on our team!” – Big Time Brewing Co 10/14/09

October 15th, 2009 at 1:18 am » Comments (0)

Well, tonight was not the best night to be non-carnivorous. Or even to be a non-butcher for that matter, man there was a tough handout that really turned our scores upside down tonight. But I digress, let’s start at the beginning. 10 teams battled for Pub Quiz supremacy, including regulars “This is transvestite trivia, right?” [...]



Happy Birthday Lindsey and Carrie –Moooo (from the Cattle prods)

October 14th, 2009 at 10:50 am » Comments (3)

We sang, indeed we did. Half the bar singing Carrie first, the other singing Lindsey first. It’s a Pub Quiz Birthday mash up not to be beat. I love it when people come out to play my quizzes on their birthdays. We’ve got the good strong numbers and the healthy pot of cash to match [...]



It’s time… for “the list”; or, everything you need to know about life you can get by watching these TV shows.

Alright first, congratulations to Miracle Max, who took first place tonight! In second came the 2-person team Beige Food Killed the Radio Star, with the Beer Whores just shy of the money (I love you guys!). Okay, on to the fun stuff! Tonight sparked something in me – call it nostalgia, call it a burning [...]



If Only it was Pub Quiz United States of American Gladiators…

A guy can dream, can’t he? Oh boy, what a dream that will be. Alas, without intellectual gladiators we are stuck with a rainy Tuesday in October. For some reason I feel like it should be sunny outside. If El Nino is going to keep sticking around and the truth is going to stay inconvenient, [...]



You know, that one show

…with that one guy?? It was a very cold, blustery night. We had 6 teams represent, regardless. We always have fun at Portsmouth! And the food is definitely yummy in generous portions. And Erin, our barkeep, is very efficient. We had 3s company take an early lead with a bingo win, but they weren’t far [...]



This guy sells bratwurst in Germany….(and we have a rollover pot!)

On his shoulders *ahem* so there you go. I have it on good authority it is NOT the cousin of our writer on Monday night. So technically the GRILL isn’t on his shoulders, but it’s suported by the shoulder straps, and from what I read, it appears this is a call to all that Bratwurst [...]



A Pub Quiz 1st For Me!!! Roscoe’s 10/12/09

I couldn’t believe it myself!!! Last night we had something happen that I have never had happen before in my many years of Quizmastering. We had a great crowd down at Roscoe’s and we decided to do a winner take all pot and all four teams would get into the final round. So we go [...]



Wichita? Witch-ih-Taaaah?

Congrats to first time first placers Team TBD! Ahh, you’ve come so far TBD. I remember when you first showed – not sure what to do with your team name, I temporarily put you down as “TBD”. Little did I know that in a short time you’d be taking first place amidst a tough crowd [...]



If we can put a man on the moon… why can’t we make a DVD that will work? The Thirsty Lion 10/7/09

Seriously! LOL!! Yea we had a few ‘problems’ last night with the DVD in the second round… but did you hear me whining and calling ‘Houston’ to help fix it… no! That’s because us Quizmasters are put through a rigorous training program that makes NASA and their ‘Right Stuff’ look weak and wrong… ok maybe [...]



Apparently Spitzer swallows is a space joke – Big Time Brewing Co 10/7/09

October 7th, 2009 at 11:53 pm » Comments (0)

I didn’t get the joke. I kinda remembered that Spitzer was a space telescope from a question a few weeks ago, but oh well. That was just an alterante team name, didn’t make the final cut, I guess because un-space savvy dudes like me wouldn’t appreciate it. That joke was a few parsecs over my [...]
