Yur HumpDay!

Greetings 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.
