In Depends Day!
Sunday, July 4th, 2010Happy In Depends Day! Be on alert – East Burn will be closed for the holiday tomorrow, so just head over to my newest venue, Yur’s Bar & Grill, to get your quiz fix. The 8:00 timing is perfect – after BBQs and before fireworks! We had a great debut there last week, by the way – kudos to my new trivia jockey, Jon! The weekly prize at Yur’s is a whopping $50 gift certificate to the bar – that’s pretty damn sweet, right? Plenty of money for your team to go America all over everybody’s ass with! Also, Ella Street Social Club‘s Triviology will be on hiatus this Monday, but just like on Sunday, you can hop on over to one of my other venues instead – 7:00 at Jade Lounge or 8:00 at Hawthorne Hideaway.
Update on my oldest venue, Peter’s, where I hosted my very first Triviology night (Team Canada reigned supreme!). Five and a half years later, Peter’s has changed ownership, and I will indeed continue to make the trivia every Wednesday night at 8. Last week, they launched the brand new menu, which still includes their great burgers, sandwiches, pastas, and salads, but now you have a lot more choices – crab cakes, mac & cheese, baby back ribs, and Kyle‘s new favorite, a giant bowl of steaming clams! Come on back to Peter’s, which you voted as your Favorite Triviology venue of 2008, and give the new menu a try!
The monthly, thematic lunar quizzery will continue, it’ll just be on a slightly different schedule for summer mayhem. Michele is planning a Disney quiz for you (the animated films!), and Margaret is plotting a Twin Peaks trivia night for early August. And here are a few other special events to look forward to:
90210 Quiz on 9/02/10!
BarFly Trivia Bus on 10/16/10!
ShanRock is your host; $100 is your prize!
Vampyre Quiz Night on 10/31/10!
