Taters Gonna Rise Up
posted October 16, 2016 1:56 PM RSS | iCal | +googleCal
Thu October 20 at 7:30 PM, The Rising
1172 Cambridge St, Cambridge, MA, USA (Map & Directions)
Despite being stuck in the corner room at tiny tables, Taters sailed to victory last time at The Rising and we have two gift certificates to spend. Assuming the world doesn't end as a result of the 3rd debate, we'll get our Geeks Who Drink trivia on once again on Thursday at 7:30pm.
Oh and it seems like our best bet is to call ahead for a table, so please confirm attendance by Wednesday.
I dunno, last time I had oysters at an Irish bar it wasn't a great experience.

Yeah, they had roasted heriloom squash in the gnocci. As opposed to mashing pumpkin into the spuds.

Who knew Inman Square was this popular! For the new folks this is what (some of us) look like.

We should just bring the giant gilded potato and wave it aloft to attract other internet folks.

I think (one of) the other team names needs to be "Miss Tater, if you're Nasty".

Also, I want you all to know that I plan to take the 96 and 69 buses to get to trivia tonight. Hopefully I don't fall into some kind of bus paradox vortex.
Bus Paradox Vortex is the name of my Jefferson Starship cover band.
