Crossword tournament today

I'm all about the crossword puzzle. I still haven't bought into the whole Sudoku thing.

I'm old school like that.

So this caught my eye: The Maryland Science Center is hosting a crossword puzzle contest at 1 p.m. today. Anybody can walk in and sign up for it. It costs $24.

None of the puzzles have been published anywhere yet, and they're all from Will Shortz of the New York Times. Which means they're probably hard.

Here's the website where you register.

If you dig crosswords, you should pick up a Harpers Magazine. In the back there is a crossword puzzle. It is the Kung Fu master of crosswords. It will proceed to whip you like a small and feeble child. If someone got 20% of the clues, I would be super impressed.

About Sam

I've been The Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.
