Chuckles: The Ides Have It

We Can Win . . . With Tickets were getting in the spirit of St. Pat's week tonight at Cafe Chuckles. Unfortunately they did not win and they missed theme choice by on point. That honor went to We Don't Know Harry (see below), who were two points behind Out of the Vortex. The Zomettes were fifth, one question behind Ubersmack. Tonight's money winners were Skirtland, Of Pixie Stix and the Miami Blades. A Captain Jack-off between Andrew and Fritz gave the Blades the gold.
The Zomettes once again ditched their menfolk.
The Miami Blades are celebrating their first-place victory.
The Susquehanna Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired was well represented by the seventh-place We Don't Know Harry. But they do know Raymond, so they are going with Everybody Loves Raymond as next Sunday's theme.
Rick of the Twin Roses is anxiously awaiting the return of Psychedelic '60s night.
The Jovial Horsemen were in fourth place until the end.
Ubersmack was joined by special guest Attorney Skip J' Ewmiller (I think he's French).
Angie used Kim's Not Here as both a team name and an excuse.
Rich and Donna were Fading Fast.
Three Roads was (were?) done in by the last round.
Captain Obvious is still not convinced that a football field is 160 feet wide.

Theme for Chuckles

It's Harry Potter, as chosen by Of Pixie Stix and Fairy Dust. Congrats to the Twin Roses who placed first, the Lucky Four who were second and We Can Win... With Tickets! who placed third. Also, thanks to Justin for filling in while I was at a John Gorka concert in Sellersville.

VFW: Dave Has a Team Again

Trivia @ 8 finally returned to the winner's circle, beating Chicks and Dicks and defending champs Giggles and Friends by 7 points. A quick Jack-off did in Erma and Mark's team claimed second. After last week's fastnachts, teams were ready for some real food, as their Lenten vows were tested with multiple sweets from the Trashbag of Deelite.

The 4-Hers lived up to their name and came in fourth.

Documented proof that Cathy is not a vampire. This is our first blog pic of her. She played as Just Me with Mike and Nat, but they left before learning that they tied for fifth place.

Steve was upset that there was no jerky in the Trashbag of Deelite, but We're Here for the Beer managed to score some Chewy Chips Ahoy.

Jean and Greg are not big fans of the picture round.

The Silly Team missed the first round, which put them out of the running. But they were silly, nonetheless.

Bube's: Armadillo Power!

Armadillo Man made a rare appearance tonight at Bube's, where we celebrated the Texas road pig. (Aramdillo Man is a rare variety that has fur instead of scales). He got to see our high score record shattered when the Toxic Olives almost had a pefect night with a whopping 101 points! The Whore and Politicians Will Look Up and Shout Save Us and I Will Answer Nutsack was second, followed by the Hiphopapotamus. The Tony Danza Slap and Ma Barker tied for fourth while the Stone Cutters and Quietly Making Noise tied for sixth. That gave theme choice once again to the Cogitators, who were talked out of menstrual cycles as their theme choice. Instead, they are going with Monty Python.

Here's a pic of the record-breaking team (minus Dana, who had already left).

The Nutsacks once again were so large that they broke in two (sounds painful!)

After suspiciously loud protestations about the Barbie picture round, Jim and Kevin of the Stonecutters were the only team to ace it. Things that make you say Hmmmmm....

Eurotrash plans on making use of their Irish green pilsner chilling class next Tuesday.

Armadillo Man is hiding somewhere in this picture of the Tony Danza Slap, one of our fourth place teams.

Ladies and gentlemen, our other fourth place team, Ma Barker and...

...their spin-off team, Ma Barker's Posse.

The Big Little Show are now the proud owners of a fuzzy pink troll!

Karen and Bob were also tied for fifth. They were debating who was the prettier team member before the show.

The B-52s are this week's theme pickers and they're going with cars.

VFW: Who's Giggling Now?

Okay, I'm doing this one from memory: The big story of the night was the come-from-behind victory of Giggles and Friend. Chicks and Dicks and the Little Lebowskis were slugging it out all night, until Giggles added another friend and they aced the last round! We're Here for the Beer almost cracked the top three and placed fourth. I forget the next couple of slots, but I rememmber that My Favorite Team placed seventh, and they're going with dogs as next week's theme.

Bube's: What I Did On My National Lampoon Vacation

I think this is my favorite picture ever of Look Kids, Big Ben, Nutsack (except Papa Sack is not in it). They staved off a last minute surge by the Toxic Olives and won by one point. Nathan is wearing the Office Space t-shirt that was this week's Shirt of the Week, Steve is studious, Josiah is embarrassed by his teammates and Marie is pondering Siamese twins again.

The Cogitators are creeping up on the top slot, this week claiming third.

Defending champs Quietly Making Noise almost made the winner's circle again.

Putin Power, Go Russia! is the proud owner of a hotly contested Katherine sippy cup.

Steve located the missing Turkey Rub and promptly re-donated it back.

Pample Moose needs to brush up on their trashcan picking.

Flamed got a special shout out at the end of the night.

Dave of the Tesla Death Rays made a rare return appearance to the show.

Let's hear it for creativity! The Damn Tour Guides have chosen armadillos as the theme for next week!

Chuckles: March Madness Begins

Three Roads had their best night ever, placing second in a tough night of competition, right behind the Miami Blades. The reunited Zombies placed third, while Ubersmack and Making Magik tied for fourth. Captain Obvious edged out the Twin Roses to round out the top 7 teams.

Captain Obvious was only two questions away from second place.

The Miami Blades have won two weeks in a row!

Tim and Kelly brought along Tim's sister and brother-in-law, the Karate Kid.

Skirtland is heading over to Alan's house to enjoy some bechamel sauce.

One of my favorite team names: Pleasantly Miserable.

The Twin Roses were supersized and moved to the back room, where they came in seventh. They're going with psychedelic songs of the '60s as their theme for next week.

You'll have to ask them the significance of their team name, "Two Dollar 25 cents."

Making Magik switched their answer in the last round, dropping them from second to fourth.
