The Resident Dingleberries The Resident Dingleberries have had enough. Think of any possible way a team can fall just short of a weekly Pub Quiz title, and they’ve experienced it at NW 21st Ave Bar & Grill. A Final Challenge Round bet a bit too big? Check. Playing it safe when the other teams go [...]

Should’ve known it was Team Canada’s night right when I started printing out the questions. Case in point: What team sport includes penalties for icing, offsides, and offsides pass? I’m surprised Theo managed to not fall out of his chair when I read that aloud. And for all the crap I’ve given him the last [...]

This guy walks up to me to register his team, “Kim and the Jong Ills” and there was no way that I was giving him only 3 bonus points — I mean, that’s a quality shirt, no? Then he busts out the Railroad tattoo and I say, “Well, alright, you just maxed out your bonus [...]

And by Kong, I mean trivia. It was a little reunion last night as Natalie guest starred with her longtime team the Sheep Shaggers!  They made it to top 3, bet with their balls, and unfortunately the final challenge question was only known by one person in the room.  So congrats to team Game On! [...]

Well, Billy Mays didn’t sell Pac-Man machines, but what the headline pre-supposes, is what if he did? Ah, what a crazy-mixed up world it would be if that were the case. It would be like a Portland team coming up and winning a Pub Quiz in Vancouver… wait… what? My producers just informed me that [...]

Frontal Lobes, our most consistent team this summer, was out in force this week with 5 players!  Games People Play was our theme this week including indoor & outdoor games, board games, card games, and more.  We had two new teams this week: “IWW” & “King Beergut, Princess Barslut, & Mic and the Stick.”  The [...]

After seeing a few Monopoly pieces (with accompanying stories both fascinating, and also obviously fabricated), some playing cards, dice, etc., the bonus point totals for the teams playing at Biddy’s on Tuesday night were staggering.  I’d have to go back and check to be sure, but it seemed that almost every single player had Bonus [...]

“I’ll take Anal Bum Cover for 600, Alex.” “That’s “An Album Cover”, Mr. Connery. ” “That’s not what your mother said last night!” And who could forget Connery changing the category with a pen: Richard Nixon Ahh, shenanigans.  Congratulations to team “I’ll Take The Rapist for 200, Alex” for their first place win! Low lighting [...]

The crowd was small and ready for fun! We got started and This Is Not a Game took an early lead with the bingo win. Team Awesome was right behind them with Rectal Implants and Nita Drink tied for last place. The race stayed pretty much the same to the finish and This Is Not [...]

Being a new Pub Mistress, I’m often caught up in the fun and frolic of the Quiz. All of these terribly smart and fun people tend to get Momma a bit lightheaded. From the creatively named Primordial Soup and Salad, to ‘always- in-first-place because-we-have-that-many-useless-facts-in-our-heads’, Little Nemo this quiz was running it’s way straight to funky [...]
