Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start. That was the team name of the winners last night at the Park Lanes Paradise Lounge. We had a good laugh when we realized they used the Contra 99 lives cheat code to win the game. Hillarity ensued. In second place last night were [...]

Questions Fly in the ‘Couv! (Shanahan’s Irish Pub)
People of Pub Quiz — if you weren’t at Shanahan’s last night, you missed a historic event! Our first ever Pub Quiz in Vancouver was a riotous success, full of prizes, gift certificates, rounds and rounds and rounds of sweet glorious booze, and — oh yeah — vidya games. First off, while Shanahan’s owners Dave [...]
Whose day? Oh. Yeah. Tuesday. Right. Got it.
Honestly, I can’t do it justice. I just can’t. Won’t. To tell you how hugely wonderful tonight’s quiz at the Gypsy was would be doing an injustice to the intellectual poetics that played out tonight. Eh, never mind. Might as well tell you, so that your jealousy about not being there will drive you to [...]
Dig Dug….
…was a fun game. I really loved that game! I also LOVED Miss Pacman, back in the day. She’s so hard to find now! Anyways…the game was on! We had 5 teams in the house, all raring to Pub Quiz. Bingo round was great fun…Hangover & a Pineapple split the points with The EyePhoneys, putting [...]
There was free food at Space Room Mondays!
Peeps missed out! When it comes to food, being free is always a win. The winner take all pot was again snagged by Team TX this week. They had the grace to admit they sucked all game (I think that’s a first for TX, honestly) and ninja’d the money from last spot! Some of their [...]
We do not play mean killing games at CC’s.
That means that the rest of you that came LAST week for Star Wars week could have totally cleaned up. Instead, you went off to some *other* place to play, leaving us to our own devices, and our players trying so hard to remember those Video games of misspent youth past. No one knew anything [...]
Parkway Station is Officially back!
Just like the career of John Travolta, we’re back baby! And it didn’t take a brilliant 90′s movie with a genius-slash-crazy director to do it, either. It was a great first week back at the Parkway Station Pub in Hillsboro. We started off with nearly 20 people this week, and the quiz was a ton [...]
The Belmont Steak Standings: Week 8
An Unholy Alliance indeed! This week, T/X played the spoiler, coming in and taking the top prize and stopping the rest of the Belmontians from gaining ground on top team Beige Food, who only had one player show up to defend their high perch on the Steak Standings. Below you’ll find the Top Ten in [...]
Space Room Saucer Standings: Week 8
We are more than two-thirds through this historic, inaugural Saucer Season. More Cowbell is starting to pull away from the pack with a rousing victory this week, but the always dangerous Spoonfuls and Clarifications are still within easy striking distance. THIS IS FOR THE TROPHY AND THE GLORY PEOPLE! Don’t give up now! Below you’ll [...]
Great, T/X! Don’t get cocky. (Belmont Inn)
“People of Belmont, welcome (BACK) to Pub Quiz!” Each week I kick of the Thursday throwdown with the above quote, but tonight there were more people at Belmont for the first time in a long time. Eighty-six people ponied up to the pool tables to flex their Force knowledge in our Star Wars-themed Pub Quiz. [...]
