Just out of curiosity – because I’m 2500 miles from Seattle – is this Buzztime trivia?

Nope, just independent pub trivia. I think there’s a place that does Buzztime in Seattle someplace, but we haven’t tried it. Well, some of us might have, but we as a group haven’t. Pop culture is not really our best category!

OK. But Buzztime on Tuesday nights isn’t much pop culture, except for the half-hour Glory Days (Daze?) It’s pretty diverse, and Countdown is hard stuff.

Well, if I’m ever in Seattle!

Well, this being the 4th Tuesday of July, Hopvine is supposed to be having trivia. I don’t recall loving their setup, but I’d go if others wanted to.

Or we could go to Hale’s, as stargazer suggests. I love the location. I think I vote for this one, if we do anything at all. Unless some other suggestion comes up.

Okay, with the help of some off-the-boards communication, it has been decided that we are meeting at Hale’s at 7:30. They don’t have trivia, so we’ll bring our own entertainment - Cervaise says he’s bringing “the best game in the history of human civilization.” :dubious:

I’ll also bring a game or two.

I’ll be there too (with a similar caveat about waking up – do they make caffeinated beer?).

It’s nice that you keep his schedule.

I’ll be there. Though the weather is so nice I might decide to hang out on the deck.

**August 18**

I’m 95% unlikely to make it tonight. Kevin’s hosting, so that sucks, because I like his quizzes, but apparently I need to allow my wife to have a social life, too.

My social life, on the other hand, allows me to attend.

Seeing you people once a week _ **is** _ my social life. Therefore, I think I’ll attend.
