Wednesday Night is Trivia Night

December is usually the rest season for the Pittsburgh Sports League. Never Fear! The good folks at the PSL have cooked up Wednesday Night Trivia to get you through the holiday season. Word on the street is that this is tricky trivia. Grab some friends and head on down to Buffalo Blues for Trivia Night.

Get Out Your Santa Suit!

December 8 is Santaarchy 2007. I love this event. Natalia post this event on IheartPGH way way back in 2005 (2 years seems like a long time in blog time). I am always thrilled to see it return each year.

A while back a group of people in San Francisco went out drinking dressed in Santa Suits. Thus began Santarchy. Now people all over the world get together for an evening (or afternoon) of drinking dressed as Santa. It is Santa fun for grown ups. And yes there are Santarchy’s all over the world. Check out the calendar located at Santarchy.com – on December 8 – there will be Santarchy’s in
*PITTSBURGH, PA, USA
*CARDIFF, WALES
*CHICAGO, IL
*HOUSTON, TX
*PHNOM PENH, CAMBODIA
*and like 15 other cities

I love it when people are doing the same thing in Pittsburgh and Phnom Penh on the same day.

The Pittsburgh Santarchy will start at 2:00pm at the fountain in the South Side Works on Saturday, December 8, 2007.

In my attempt to find amazing pictures to illustrate each of these posts I discovered this picture on Flickr. I have no idea who these people are but I am glad they are sharing this picture. Apparently they met this Santa somewhere where it is warm and that this guy participates in the Pittsburgh Santarchy!

Thanks to Flickr member OhBurner for sharing this picture on Flickr. I love this picture because I just spent some time in Honolulu for turkey day (visiting Pittsburgh friends) and was wondering how Santa handles the warm weather.

I think there is even a picture of the great Golf Cart Santa!

3 Reasons to visit the Sharp Edge

I have just posted this review on Yelp! (which is an website filled with first person reviews that I am just figuring out how to use). But I though I would post it here too. All of the details on the Sharp Edge are available here.

3 Reasons I like the Sharp Edge

1. Now Smoke Free! – yes, the Sharp Edge is now smoke free!
2. Thin crust pizza. I like the crust thin and crispy. Monday nights large pizzas are $5 off
3. Mugs of beer. Sometimes I just can’t drink a big big beer. I like that I can order a mug of beer here. Never fear, you can also order big and big big beers here.

Cocktails for a Cause

This Tuesday – all proceeds from Happy Hour at the Brillobox benefits Planned Parenhood of Western, PA. The last Cocktails for a Cause is one of the best happy hours I have attended in a long time. The Brillobox is great and usually has $2 appetizers on Tuesday.

Tuesday, December 4, 6-9pm @ The Brillobox.
