Well, there weren’t many players tonight at Maxwell’s, but they were patriotic!  The All American Rejects took an early backseat to That’s Right..You’re Not From Texas with Team Awesome in second with the bingo win.  The Argus Fireworks were in an lead.  After round 2, Texas nudged in front of Awesome to be in 2nd.  [...]



Three theater people walk into a bar…. (Bitter End Pub)

And they walked out with over $40 in cash money.  Just like that.  Having never played the game before, at the end of the Bingo round they were in the spot one from the bottom.  It was that second round that catupulted them into the top 5 teams, and by the end of the game [...]

Million, billion, trillion… zillion?  Yeah sure, why not? Math is hard. A beautiful night at Shmizza – for any regular teams that read the blog we had 4 brand new teams join us!  They had a good time and we should see some of them back for trivia, beer, and a slice!  Nice. Congratulations to [...]



David Beckham yes, President Taft, no. (CC Slaughters)

So it was, in trivia history, Monday night, in a completely unprecedented move; the crowd at CC Slaughter’s actually knew MORE about the sports icons than the Presidents of the United States.  Go back and read that again, will you?  Ok, got it?  I know, right?  I mean, what the hell?   I would not [...]



The Nightmare Before Quizmas (Belmont Inn)

June 25th, 2010 at 5:21 pm » Comments (1)

Alright, now don’t say I didn’t warn you in advance on my FACEBOOK PAGE. But Thursday night was a truly magical Pub Quiz at the Belmont Inn, because Jack Skellington himself stopped by for our Tim Burton-themed Pub Quiz! Okay, that might’ve actually been Josh from “Can You Smell the Stank?” but still, magical nonetheless, [...]



Black Lipstick!

It’s so crazy looking!  Thank goodness for Beer Whores, who dressed up for the Tim Burton theme. If I’m honest, I just wanted to somehow justify saying “Thank goodness for Beer Whores”.  Awesome. In first place last night @ Parkway Station, on a streak of two wins in a row, Geeks United: WIDMER!  Didn’t notice [...]



Corpse and Hound

Greetings my fellow Macabre loving trivia goers, What an exciting night in Hood River at the Good Ol’ Horse and Hound.  For a slough of reasons.  Firstly, it was the first night we were allowed by the weather gods to play outside?  You know how many times we shoulda been out there already?  It was [...]



Sweet Caroline!!!

We were singing this tune all night here at Sonny’s in Springfield. Yes it seems Neil Diamond is a popular guy. The quiz went great as the vibe was chillingly gothy. It was a close match throughout the quiz. In the end it was the Frontal Lobes who cashed in with the big prize. Thanks [...]



The Elfman/Depp Inquisition

June 24th, 2010 at 10:46 pm » Comments (0)

An “inquisition” because, well, a number of the Tim Burton-themed Pub Quiz questions Thursday night at 21st Ave Bar & Grill dealt with — you guessed it! — Danny Elfman and Johnny Depp. Naturally. It’s sort of one of those ‘bread and butter’ things. Like peanut butter and jelly.  Or, given the week’s topic, like [...]



Whooaaaaaa what a night @ the Lion!

It was super packed at the Thirsty Lion last night!  The pot was nigh $200 AND I saw some familiar faces!  There was ateam that knew me from when I ran the quiz at the Night Light in Portland, and a gal who knew me from my time working for the Hillsboro Argus also showed [...]
