My all time favorite trivia question asked with a thick New England accent:

Which English monarch was forced to sign the Magna Carta in the early part of the thirteenth century?

I'm still fond of a 1970s Sports Illustrated description of the heckles of hockey fans at the Gaaden:

"Hey Claaaake, they've got a town heah named after you. It's called Maablehead!"

Alas, just a year or two before Brad Paahk got here. Hadn't heard it in quite a while. Good one. Thanks for the reminder Ken. :)

well, I had hopes I could make this work. I looked into transit availability and other things. This is a well set up event, but personal concerns will prevent me from coming. Hopefully, everyone will have a good time. Thanks matt for setting this up.

Sorry to hear Charles. Had hoped things would work out. Thanks much for letting us know - and considering attending. :)

Still trying to work this out from a few angles...hoping to know and finalize by next week. Is there a deadline or anything for the room block?

No problem. Confined with Beachy. Stoughton hotel discount deadline is this Tuesday. Randolph hotel discount good until week before Triviapalooza. Looking forward to seeing you 8-)

Count Troy (BRUTUS) and Alicia (SYD) in. A couple things still pending on our end but shouldn't be issues.

I was trying to explain the Buzztime community and Triviapalooza to a guy who occasionally joins us for Jeopardy! at the bar.

“I had no idea this existed. And it’s all across America?”

“And Canada.”

“And you know trivia people from outside Chicago. So there’s, like, this trivia underground?”

“Uh, well, yeah, kinda.”

“Like cockfighting?”

The resemblance between Buzztime and cockfighting would be even stronger if the birds in cockfighting were unsupervised and free range.
