It was our last night at Northwest Brewing. At least for now. We wrapped up our quiz night with 5 teams on the night. A high water mark for teams at Northwest. We rocked, we rolled and we had a stern discussion about Selena Gomez. In third place tonight was Andrew with 42 points. In second place with a mean 51 points was Mitch. and taking first place by hitting hard in the last 2 rounds, it was Fat Cats.
So that's pretty much that. Northwest has been a great venue even if it's been a small crowd. Shawna the bartender was always ready for "one more beer." And the regualrs have been colorful to be sure. We may be back one day or maybe not. In the mean time, I'll see you in the quiz blogs.

Quizmaster Ozzimo is probably the greatest living example of a Sex Ninja (the greatest non-living example being Martin Van Buren, of course). I mean, Ozzimo is scary good at just about every fucking thing he does. This is why I keep my wife and anyone else I care about away from him. See, I know that one glimpse of his shiny bald head and his smoky, seductive stare and anyone who thinks I’m cool will automatically have a new definition of what that word means. He is the yardstick to which all is measured, and I come up to about the 6 and half inch mark *rimshot*. So when the task to follow in his mighty impressive footsteps was given to me, I reluctantly accepted. It was just about the most daunting mission I have ever dared to endeavor.
Things started off rocky, as I got lost on my way to the bar. I was able to get there with about 10 minutes to spare before quiz. I was already fielding questions about the beloved Ozzimo. His devoted fan base wanted to know where the fuck he was. Intimidated, I did what any fat kid with a speech impediment would: I started making awkward jokes. Some of them even elicited a chuckle or two. As the quiz went on and I became more confident (courtesy of the Hoppy Bitch IPA), I started getting more daring, and I made a joke or two about Ozzimo… Mistake. Don’t fuck with Ozzimo. Just don’t do it. His people have his back, even when the joke is a light-hearted commentary on his baldness. Just don’t do it. Learn from my mistake people… Ozzimo has more devout followers than Opus Dei. I was able to regain my footing, this time watching my words carefully. I made a few jokes about Michael Jordan and different shit he could shill. I made a Diablo Cody joke or two, and I thanked everyone for playing, I handed out prizes for the first place team Mikey and Stephie and second place team Purple Pussy Willows, and I ended the evening on a high note. All in all, I would have to say, my first night replacing the Sex Ninja was good. Next week, we build from there.

Let's be honest. It was raining like a motherfucker and traffic was a trap. But despite all that we had a super night at Northwest Brewery. 5 teams and a few lookie loos on the said made for some tense complitition. In 3rd place, just out of the prizes was Buck Wild with 52 points. "Binders full of Team Names" took 2nd with 58 points. And in first place, hitting some big late rounds, was Fat Cats with 67 points.
As always it's worth listening to the Quizmaster when he is trying to tell you something that will eventually get you free beer. For example. when the bonus rounds are, what type of answer we are looking for in this round, and when to shut the fuck up with the shouting out of answers. Free beer is precious. Treat it like.... well... free beer. I'll see you all next week!
