The GOODS from Strange Fellows Brewing

Vancouver, BC | Calling all Sesquipedalians*, Philologos*, and Word aficionados* … get ready to stand up straight and e-n-u-n-c-i-a-t-e*. If you’ve never competed in a Spelling Bee but always wanted to, or loved it when you did, now’s your chance! We invite one and all to participate in our first-ever Strange Spelling Bee for the chance to win some hellacious* bragging rights. While we can’t promise that the winner will be sent on to the annual Scripps Bee, we can guarantee* some really great prizes, and a plethora* of fun to be had!

STRANGE SPELLING BEE

Saturday, May 25th, 7-9pm

Pre-register online to guarantee your place in the competition. Entry by donation at the door and receive complimentary* participation beer!

Strange Day #53 | Our Strange Spelling Bee is inspired by spelling matches held annually, from classrooms to the international stage. According to reliable on-line sources, the Spelling Bee originated in the United States in the 1800’s, and apparently English has become the language of choice for Spelling Bees worldwide, not for its commonality, but its irregularity. So forget phonetics* or grammatical* rules and go with your gut instinct or photo memory and join the tourney*!

*Just saying – these words may or may not be competition words…
