“Dear PoPville,
One of my friends is going to be on Jeopardy tomorrow and we wanted to have a watch party in DC at a bar! Do you know if there are any bars that show jeopardy? It feels very DC to already exist hahaha. I think apparently Midlands said they would host! Apparently they’ve hosted quite a few over the years.”
Which other bars regularly show Jeopardy? Which ones would be most fun to watch your friend, hopefully, crush it?!?
Thanks to Robin for sending:
“Any idea what’s going on with the post office inside Union Station? I feel like I remember it closing due to flooding or something several months ago, but didn’t realize it was still closed until I tried to go recently. I tried again this morning just in case it was a one-day thing, and it’s still closed. (more…)
Thanks to Taylor for sending the finished sign: “Check out what is going into the old Big Hunt space in Dupont Circle.”
Totally wild, I don’t think I’ll ever get used to this…
Gotta be opening any day now, stay tuned.

“Some fantastically odd art (?) hanging in the starburst intersection in NE DC.”
I love it.
Reminds me of the chandelier artist. Anyone see other pieces like this?
