I’ve always had a strange obsession with history and famous dates. Also, being as educated in random facts as I am, it is my responsibility to freely share some of my scholarship with the public. I’ve chosen a few random events that stood out and now you’re forced to read them. Continue reading

Swedish House Mafia is stopping here in Chicago tonight and a couple of Poor Scholars and I will be droppin’ the brohammer as they play for the very last time in this fine city. In honor of this bittersweet night, I’m posting my favorite photos tagged #OneLastTour.

Although you’ve seen him in many big named movies, not many people will recognize Nash Edgerton… An Australian stuntman and film director.
As a stuntman, Nash has appeared in The Matrix trilogy, The Thin Red Line, Superman Returns and Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones as well as Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. Cheers, happy Friday, we made it to the weekend!

Hopefully, by now, you know that the great Michael Jordan will be celebrating his 50th birthday this weekend.

For those who don’t know… I’m a Niner fan. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and I bleed gold (unless it’s baseball season, when I bleed orange). With the San Francisco Forty Niners going to their sixth Super Bowl on Sunday, this week’s Instagram Weekly Top Ten was a no-brainer: #49ers.

Not many people were aware that while we were all watching football and eating burritos, the Maverick’s Invitational big wave surf contest was going on in Half Moon Bay, CA. If you’re unfamiliar, these waves are known to top out at nearly 80 feet and have claimed the lives of some of the world’s greatest surfers.
This week, I’ve decided to post the top ten photos tagged #MavsInvitational that really show off the size of these monsters. Got one that’s better? Tweet us @poorscholars.

Yes, this is real.
All of your favorite bands from your elementary school carpool are here and sitting poolside. Just when you thought life with unlimited pizza and soft-serve ice cream couldn’t get any better, Mark McGrath slaps you in the face with 1996.

We all witnessed the BCS Championship last week… so we’re all aware of two things: The Crimson Tide rolled through Notre Dame and AJ McCarron’s girlfriend is a dignified smokeshow.
While no one is going to argue Brent Musburger about Miss Alabama, a computer system used to determine the BCS standings still ranks the Irish at the top.
