Yur HumpDay!
Tuesday, September 14th, 2010Greetings Triviologists! As you are enjoying the final days of summer, I’ve got lots of fun special events to help you celebrate. Please peruse the details below. I would also like to announce my triumphant return to The Slammer! I’ve got history with this saucy little tavern – I hosted weekly Triviology there in 2006, before a friendly parting of the ways. On October 2nd, I will finally reunite with The Best BadAss BarKeep in Portland – Lizzy! This will be an extra-special weekly pub quiz, as it will be enjoyed during Saturday brunch! Showtime is at 2 PM, so that you can enjoy The Slammer’s bloody mary bar with biscuits and gravy while you get your quiz on! I’m also preparing a unique format just for The Slammer, so stay tuned for details.
Also, don’t forget that this very Wednesday we’ll hold Yurs Bar & Grill first hump-day quizzery with Jon, still with a $50 gift certificate to the bar for the victors! Speaking of Jon, he devised a charming little challenge for teams last Sunday – each team earned a point for writing a haiku about Triviology! Here’s what The Transplants wrote at East Burn:
Trivia is fun.
Knowledge on display tonight.
Wrong answer – you suck.
