Nice. Congratulations to last night’s winners from the Thirsty Lion – Two Time Defending Champions Mustache Flavored Kisses! Wait, no, that’s right, they got last place! TEEHEE! Two wins is technically a streak though, and I’m sure getting last will give them the hunger they need to take it once again, very soon! Congratulations to [...]

Can You Spell Q-U-I-Z?
It was a bit slow this week at the Big Time Brewing Co. in Seattle, perhaps a byproduct of classes ending at UW, but we had four teams, all comprised of regulars, battling it out for the cash as well as those all-important standings game points. And it was a hard week. Spelling is hard [...]
Can you use that in a sentence?
The quiz crowd’s keeping me on my toes again- the majority of our thirty-one players showing up just 10 minutes before game time. As long as we can play I suppose it’s alright with me. Had a regular ol’ quiz with a heavy emphasis on spelling, from tricky words to trickier celebrity names. Pros not [...]

Spelling fails – where did they start?
Oh. Ahem, anyway! It was a blast at Schmizza last night! I brought some crispy chocolate bars for quizzers, and we all had a sugar crash after the quiz. Whee! I’ll bring the rest to the quiz next week for a repeat! Congratulations to team Reunion Tour for their first place win last night! In [...]
Timing Is Everthing (Shanahan’s)
Oh god. What a week for spelling, huh? Well, if you haven’t yet heard, Mitt Romney’s campaign for President of these United States put out an iPhone App called “With Mitt.” (The Germans must love the translation of “mitt Mitt.”) Anyway, this app allows you to take photos and emblazon them with awesome American catch-phrases [...]
W-I-N-N-E-R, W-I-N-N-E-R
You can’t spell good time without PQ USA. OK, so maybe you can, but you get the idea. Real fun has a silent PQ….Pfunq. BOOM! Bingo was tightly contested with the first and last place teams separated by only 30 points. Hangover & A Pineapple won the bonus points to reach a cool 100 points. [...]
How Do You Spell Idiot? C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N-S
At least for tonight you do! With all of Downtown San Jose on a Memorial Day Bender/Hangover, the Brit looked a lot like the John Carter premiere. But for those four teams that did make it out, well they made it an instant classic for Pub Quizzing. Like I said, we had four truly great [...]
Disapproving Dog (Belmont Inn)
Disapproving dog thinks you could have done better at quiz last night! Yup, that’s another shot of my dog, but while I saved the most disapproving for last, I also saved the cutest: Yeah, you don’t get any cuter than that, folks. Really, you don’t. Speaking of cute, we had a cute little quiz at [...]
And the winner is: The Blue Man Group!
Seriously, I must need new batteries for my camera or something, the flash is exceptionally blue here, here it the Blue Man Group: And here is the winning team, Mustache Flavored Kisses: I may have gotten those mixed up. It’s so hard to tell the difference. It was a blast of a night at The [...]
