BILLY WARMTH TRIVIA SHOW

Announcements

Well, i am back from my journey and ready to frustrate all of you, as if Bruiser and LOUIE didn't do enough of that. Thanks to Bruiser for filling in for me last Monday night and thanks also for ATTEMPTING to fill in for me on Thursday at Crossgates. Sorry for the cancellation but Crossgates apparently suffered through another bad planning LOUIE moment. Not enough staff, kitchen overwhelmed and weather didn't help, supposedly. Well i am back and ready to feast on your gray matter.

For those of you Barn Door faithful your Fall 2008 Tournament begins next Monday night October 6th, Ending - December 1st. The Crossgates tournament will now be shortened to 8 weeks.

Last Week's Blurbage

Anemia in the trivia world apparently lives. One of the smallest crowds ever at the Barn Door showed up ( or didn't ) last Monday night. I think it was the combination of ME not being there and BRUISER being there. At least that's what I am going with. Thanks to Bruiser for filling in for me. Only 8 teams came out and "Out of the Vortex" withstood the challenges of the "J-Men" and the "Wacky Corner" and, shockingly, team "Mimi" was actually in 1st place after the first round, a feat even "KC" can't quite master. Well, you have just one week to get ready for your Fall 2008 tournament. Questions on everyones mind: Where did "Don't Know Jack" go Where were Brian, Kim, Bill, Tom and their goofy team names, What happened to the "Krispy Originals"and where in the world is "Puppet Lint" (Jim Miller's favorite team name)

Your Upcoming Mini-categories for September are:

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

Well, what can I say but bad-planning moment. Apparently the storm that blew in disrupted the ability to handle the function in the pavilion which apparently caused the show to be postponed because the function had to be moved to the clubhouse. Hmmmmmmm! Wind seems to do some not-so-good things with linen, china and glassware. So, there was no show last Thursday and, believe it or not, nothing to write about so........no blurb this week. To all of you I want you to know that we will set up the lobby starting this week, the weather is changing and it will be cool out deep on the deck. The deck will still be open for seating under cover and for the daring who like it out in the open on a crisp evening. Hey "Stupid MOFOs", that means you. Don't forget to plan your team costumes for our 7th annual Halloween show to end this years Fall tournament on October 30th. I hope to see all of you Thursday night.

Your Upcoming Tournament Mini-Categories are:

Last Week's Blurbage

13 teams and 68 people. The crowd here at the Barn Door is returning to its healthy numbers and that is a good thing. "Out of the Vortex" once again showed who is King of the trivia hill as they bested the "J-Men" and the "There's A Lot of Water in Delta Burke" by 4 and 7 points respectively. We also saw the return of the "Saucey Ladies". Those fine women from Scotland just love the show and they wish they had something like this on the other side of the pond. The once again Zoe-less "Don't Know Jack" finished just out of the top 3 and they were as excited as they have ever been to be that close to the money positions.

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

I am not sure when this low attendance will end but at least you are all having fun. Well, some of you anyway. After 3 rounds out of nine of your Fall 2009 Tournament the standings keep changing but there is a mystery afoot. Everyone wanted to know where the *$% "Croma" was tonight. Jerry's traveling minstral show is probably the most overzealous group of people you will ever see and the show just isn't the same when they are not there, especially since it is tournament time. As for tonights show, The "Stupid MOFOs" won for the first time in the tournament and they were 4 points better than the 2nd place "R & R" which was 2 points better than last weeks perfect team, the "Bar Ks". This week the "Bar Ks' were only Jack, Karen, John and Jan. That is about 4 people short of their full compliment of teammates. "Out of the Vortex" was humbled into 4th place possibly due to the fact that their team leader and founder, Margie, couldn't make the show. She claimed to be on a profesional junket in Harrisburg. Your tournament mini-categories are listed below the blurb and they are in alphabetical order. You won't know which one I have chosen until the night of the show and then it will disappear from the list. There were originally 10 categories but only 9 weeks of tournament so you won't even be certain of the final week because there will still be 2 on the list. Also, Our 7th annual Halloween Costume show will end the tournament on October 30th so your teammates should be planning for that show now.

Last Week's Blurbage

Well, we returned from our Labor Day break here at the Barn Door to a smaller than expected crowd. 10 teams and 55 people showed, I guess that is a decent night but I am so used to having more of you there. "Out of the Vortex" and the "Wacky Corner" are getting in their final tune-ups in before the Fall 2009 9-week Tournament begins in just a few short weeks as they finished 1st and 2nd, getting by the wackos from "Spangle My Banner" by 10 points. The once feared "J-Men" struggled to a 4th place finish and "Don't Know Jack" was down to a 2-person team and actually did very well with a 5th place finish. They really could use the help of Zoe who has mysteriously been absent. Even the lowly "KC" ALMOST got into the act with a 6th place tie of "Just Dumb Luck". The Katie led "Just Dumb Luck" is holding their heads in shame after suffering that fate. AND, guess what, the "Krispy Original" finished 8th with the help of my dad....well.....not much help apparently. Yes, Lefty finally showed his face again and he was quickly asked to never show his face again. The 'Krispy folk take this stuff very seriously, especially Chad and Carol. See you guys Monday night; 3 weeks until your Fall 2009 tournament begins.

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

Three weeks in a row we have now seen smaller than expected crowds and; with the Fall 2009 tournament entering its 3rd week I sure hope things pick up. Something absolutely amazing happened here at Crossgates last Thursday night. For only the 2nd time in the 7 years I have been doing this show, a team had a PERFECT score. Yes, the "Bar Ks" aced the night with a score of 90 out of 90 points. They all but destroyed everyone else. They were especially happy that they beat "Out of the Vortex" senseless and now they have their sights set on the 3rd place "Stupid MOFOs" who managed a near-perfect night as they missed only 1 third round question. Did I just say the 'MOFOs were 3rd? Hmmmmm! I guees that means there was a 2nd place team. Why yes there was. Also perfect in the final round and shocking even themselves was "Crimson Tide". They missed only 2 pictures in the 2nd round. Who would have guessed that the 'Tide could EVER do something like that. Faltering way back in 4th place was the "Better Half" with the Sara-less "Off Duty" finishing 5th. Ok, now hold onto yours hats. "Out of the Vortex" finished 6th. They were destroyed by 17 points. It was one of their worst defeats ever and the 'MOFOs Joyce was doing dances after the show in honor of the thrashing that the "Bar Ks" gave the 'Vortex. She just loves it when her team's perceived competition goes down.

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

A very light night last week here at Crossgates for the second week in a row even though the tournament has begun. And what a beginning it was. Pre-tourney favorites, "Out of the Vortex" and the "Stupid MOFOs" began the 9 week event with a 1st and 2nd place finish. The "Better Half" and "Thorns-n-Roses" have merged to form "Better Roses" and they finished 3rd in what has to be one of the most surprising opening nights in the 7 years I have been doing this show. In 4th place was the surprisingly resurgent "R & R" with "Crimson Tide" 5th and the "Bar Ks" 6th to open the tournament. "Croma", the perennial cellar dwellars did NOT finish last, much to Jerry's dismay. He relishes in that bottom spot and Loves those DumDum pops at the end of the tournament. Your tournament mini-categories are listed below the blurb and they are in alphabetical order. You won't know which one I have chosen until the night of the show and then it will disappear from the list.

Last Week's Blurbage

Well, Happy Labor Day to all of you. As you already know we do NOT have a show tonight at the Barn Door simply because.....well.....the Barn Door is closed for the holiday. We will return on September 8th and I hope we can pack the place. Remember, your Fall 2009 Nine Week Tournament begins in just 4 weeks so sharpen up. How do you do that? Well, you come out to the show for PRACTICE. 10 teams (for the third week in a row) and 58 people last Monday night here at the Barn Door. Pre-tourney favorites "Out of the Vortex" had their way with all of you for the 2nd week in a row and kicked some royal butt with a 19 point victory over "Sew You Think You Can Trivia" with "Vandelay Industries" another 6 points back. Katie's bunch of loons from "Just Dumb Luck" returned after a week off and mamaged to finish in a tie for 4th place with "Wacky Corner". The 'Corner's BOB was later heard to say, "I just wasn't worth a lick tonight". The once mighty "J-Men" ahve been sinking faster than the John Edwards marriage and they no longer seem to be a threat to the top of the tournament heap. It was a fun night but the entire crowd is still wondering what is up with "KC". I know the "J-Men" and GARY miss them terribly.

LAST WEEK'S BLURBAGE

A light night last week here at Crossgates and I am sure it was just a night to rest your weary brains before your 9-week Fall 2009 Tournament gets underway this week. Expect a VERY LARGE turnout and this is also the week that the MU golf group comes out to play so get there EARLY for your favorite seats. Your tournament mini-categories are listed below the blurb and they are in alphabetical order. You won't know which one I have chosen until the night of the show and then it will disappear from the list. There are 10 categories but only 9 weeks of tournament so you won't even be certain of the final week because there will still be 2 on the list. Also, Our 7th annual Halloween Costume show will end the tournament on October 30th so your teammates should be planning for that show now. As for last weeks show, pre-tourney co-favorites "Out of the Vortex" AND the "Stupid MOFOs" BOTH finished out of the top three for the first time since the 'MOFOs started playing last year. I am not sure what that means but "R & R" showed some teeth and with Bruiser back, after a self imposed Time Out, romped to victory last week. Well, they didn't actually romp. They beat the "Better Half" by 2 points and the 3rd place "Bar Ks" by 4 points. The ROMP comes from the fact that ANYTIME a team beats up on the 'Vortex AND the 'MOFOs on the same night, it is an accomplishment worth mentioning. As for the 'MOFOs, their loss can be chalked up to the young, lovely Erin, hurting her back and the fifth of Captain Morgan and the bottle of Percoset turned her brain to mush so she was totally useless. Her mother Joyce, was also pretty useless but that is just her normal mode. She better pick it up for the tournament. If only Tracy would put out now and then. Then, of course, there are the "Fighting Mongooses", "Crimson Tide", "Off Duty" and "Thorns and Roses". These 4 teams don't care about winning, they just PRAY that they don't finish behind "Croma". "Croma" is the "KC" of Crossgates Trivia, especially when Leslie shows up. And, Speaking of "Off Duty", they seemed totally lost without Sarah to help them out. Also, a hearty WELCOME BACK to the "Young Bucks".
