Shakes the Clown (Belmont Inn)

April 27th, 2012 at 2:40 pm » Comments (0)

In my weekly “looking for funny images related to the theme quest, I remembered this classic 80s (90s?) comedy — Shakes the Clown. Looking at the tagline, I wonder, how was Bad Santa ever green lit — isn’t it just a blatant ripoff of this film, swapping Santa for the clown? Well, there were no [...]



Take a Bow

Well it wasn’t a Midsummer Night’s Dream, but we had a fun group of quizzers. Yahtzee was bound and determined to get the bingo and that they did. The bingo bonus ensured their early lead with Shakes Beer in 2nd and Bringing Up the Rear in 3rd. Who Am I? was a fun round. We [...]



How Art Thou Quizzing Skills?

Ah yes, Shakespeare, the Bard, Big Willie Shakes — such was the theme of this week’s pub quiz at the Big Time Brewing Co. in Seattle, and the sight of another fun week of questioning, answering, eating and drinking. We had the usual fun, even with such a heady topic. And thankfully no young lovers [...]



Shakes in Space… (Space Room)

April 26th, 2012 at 2:20 pm » Comments (0)

What glorious mayhem at the Space Room last night! It turned out the Thirsty Lion was refinishing their floors, so we had a slew of refugee quizzers invading Hawthorne’s Hottest bar trivia night. With all the tables packed, we had to double up some teams to accommodate everyone. I guess people love their Shakespeare. The [...]



Everybody Plays the Fool (Shanahan’s)

I’d like to write this post in iambic pentameter, but truth be told, I can’t be arsed. It’s tough enough to write these blogs as it is sometimes, and having to stick to the rules of the writing road might drive me to drink my bottle of ink. Lovely time as always north of the [...]



Trip on thy sword, thou gorbellied rump-fed pumpion!

Forsooth, Shakespeare insults are fun And so was pub quiz last night! But Hood River may not have as many bard’s fans as I had anticipated, so blessed art thou getting thyselves to the quizzery so dutifully. Players at the Horse & Hound may be happy to know that bonus points for bringing in new [...]



The Course of True Love Never Did Run Smooth

This was the quiz that almost wasn’t. J We had a few players that made up 2 teams, then one more team jumped up to join in the fun. Bingo got to the very end, to the very last question, before Anagram This! scored the points. Phew! Yahtzee was in 2nd and Shauna’s Shits were [...]

Wherefore art thou?

The quiz room was quiet. The quizzers were very studious and concentrating. The bingo round was a tough one. The teams were ready to give it a go, though. Clown Punchers took the bingo win and sat in 1st place with Hangover and a Pineapple behind them. Po was in very close 3rd with newcomers [...]



Bill Shakespeare versus The Boss

April 24th, 2012 at 10:25 pm » Comments (0)

Upon arriving to the Brit in Downtown San Jose, I noticed that the place was packed with people. I just figured that people heard that this weeks trivia theme was Bill Shakespeare and everyone wanted a piece of the action. Instead, I find out that the masses had come out in droves to hear some [...]
