Game of Thrones Love at the P.O.P.E

Posted by Alex Tewfik on March 20th, 2013

Just when I thought things have gone too far, Ommegang proves me otherwise.

Danya Henninger over at Zagat Philadelphia, reported that the New York brewery has created a Game of Thrones beer, a 6.5% ABV blonde ale to be exact, and since almost everything that comes out of Ommegang is awesome, I’m sure this beer is no different (even though it’s a bit of a gimmick). So you can either wait around for the season premier on March 31st to drink it, or go drink it tonight at The P.O.P.E. at 7 p.m., where pints of Iron Throne will be on tap. Then, at 10:15 pm, quizzo-extraordinaire Johnny Goodtimes will be hosting a “Quiz of Thrones.” You’re not a real GoT fan until you drink GoT beer while playing GoT Quizzo. That’s a stone-cold fact.


Oh, and f*** Joffrey.

Finally, Cheating at Quizzo is Acceptable

Posted by Foobooz on September 27th, 2010

Quizzo can be a drag when you don’t know the answer. And even more of a drag when you spot a team Googling answers with their iPhones. But tonight Johnny Goodtimes is hosting a quizzo where cheaters DO prosper. Tonight at 6:30 at the MarBar at 40th and Walnut, for a price you will be able to phone a friend, use your cell phone or even ask Johnny for a major hint. All the money raised goes to the Spells Writing Lab. For more information on the lab and the event check out the Spells Writing Lab site.

Goodtimes is also in the midst of his Johnny Goodtimes Autumn Invitational where quizzo teams can qualify for his high stakes fall event. More details on how to accumulate points are available at Johnny Goodtimes.com.

UPDATE: We have winners, thanks for playing!

This Saturday, March 29th marks the Fourth Annual Quizzo Bowl, of which Foobooz is a proud sponsor. Why not? Quizzo is the realm of know-it-alls and who excels in know-it-allness better than foodies? Also, Sly Fox will be providing the beer, which is another good reason.

Here’s your chance to win free tickets, which normally cost $25 in advance, $30 at the door (and include all the Sly Fox you can drink), courtesy of Quizzo Bowl host Johnny Goodtimes.

Quizmaster and Quizzo Bowl IV host Johnny Goodtimes loves a listicle, so it’s no surprise he’s all over PW’s Top 50 Bars. He’s so obsessed, in fact, that he’s started his own anti-list: the Worst Bars in the City. Check it out and see if you have any to add. We know we do!
