NYC quiz preview: Tuesday, Sept 3 (part III)

Prize time! We've already told you (here and here) about some of the big plans for the next NYC BQT, this Tuesday, September 3: Our fab new venue, SubCulture; our dynamite opening comedian, Liam McEneaney; and the panoply of multimedia games, including Meme-O-Rama. But I know what you're thinking: What's in it for you? (Other than, you know, fun, entertainment, and social interaction.)

As usual: the cash jackpot of $200. Last month we shifted gears a bit, divvying up the money among several teams instead of unloading the whole wad onto the winners, and I dare say it worked out fairly well (does that make me a socialist?). So thus it will remain: $100 for first place, $50 for second, $25 for third, and $25 for tenth, 'cause why not.

In addition, as always, oodles of good stuff. Lots of returning prize sponsors, including…

The best in showbiz-themed bus tours, both in NYC and Boston. On Location has been generous several times in the past, but the company founder finally checked out the show last month and renewed her commitment to her sponsorship, so hurrah. We have a pass for two to their New York TV & Movie Sites jaunt. Learn more at OnLocationTours.com.

Also…

Masters of unique and fun scavenger hunts, POGO Events has been on the BQT prize team through much of '13. (And even fielded a team at our Sneak Preview TV Screening event). Passes to some of these supreme enjoyments are in the haul Tuesday, and all the news is at POGOEvents.com.

And theater tickets! Specifically…

Courtesy our prize partners at Red Rising Marketing, two shows that we've featured at the BQT before: Unbroken Circle and The Two Character Play. Click here and here for my ever-so-witty blog takes, or visit the respective sites, UnbrokenCircleThePlay.com and TheTwoCharacterPlay.com.

Plus some newcomers: the legendary storytelling entertainment of The Moth; pin-knocking good times at Bowlmor Lanes; indescribable deliciousness from Milk & Cookies Bakery; and some tickets from our fine new venue, SubCulture. To be discussed in more details shortly. Meanwhile… What? You don't have tickets yet?!?
