Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

Two teams got a jackpot for knowing about Finnish alcohol.

TEAM NAMES

You got creative with your team names.

Everywhere is a toilet if you’re a toddler

Every criminal is free if they’re President of the US

Any trivia answer is a correct answer if you’re threatening enough

Every day is payday if you’re a bank robber

Every light is a green light if you’re colour blind

Any distance is walking distance if you’ve got the time

Every work day is a last work day if you can’t keep your mouth shut

Every day is a weekend if you’re unemployed

Any joke is funny if you’re drunk enough

Every sink is a bathtub if you’re under 5’2’’

Every tree is a public urinal if you’re drunk enough

Any book is a Bible if you have enough faith in it

Every house is a mansion if you’re a mouse

Every walk is a bushwalk if you’re hairy enough

Any bath is a swimming pool if you’re small enough

Every sleeve is a tissue if you’re snotty enough

Any dog is a horse if you’re small enough

Every meeting is an AA meeting if you’re vulnerable enough

And multiple teams went with… Anything is a dildo if you’re brave enough

Alexandria Trivia – Iron Duke Hotel – Wednesdays at 730pm

July 14, 2025Uncategorizedsydney, trivia, venuesiqtrivia

Alexandria trivia is kicking off in a new venue.

Yes, we’re bringing trivia back to a venue that needs it.

alexandria trivia

It’s at the Iron Duke Hotel at 220 Botany Road in Alexandria, and it is kicking off every Wednesday at 730pm.

trivia alexandria

We’ve got interesting trivia, we’ve got great food from the bistro complete with all the pub classics, a fully stocked bar with plenty of rotating taps so you won’t die of thirst or boredom, and we’ve got great prizes courtesy of the Iron Duke.

In short, we have got everything you need for a great Wednesday night out.

Of course, the Iron Duke isn’t your average pub, and iQ Trivia don’t do average trivia. So it’s bound to be a great night out if you are into beer and trivia. (And if you’re not, we have no idea why you are still reading.)

If you’re the kind of person who has memorised every Melbourne Cup winner, congratulations. But to be honest, that probably won’t help you. This isn’t an exam. Rather than just spitting out facts, you’ll probably have have to do some lateral thinking. We will ask questions that you won’t see coming. We will ask questions you probably won’t know off the top of your head, but will enjoy arguing about with your friends. The IQ in iQ Trivia stands for interesting questions, and that is what we will provide.

As always, we’ve got a homework question to give you an advantage. If you want to be on the e-mail list, just send an e-mail to homework@iqtrivia.com.au with Iron Duke in the subject line to be added to our mailing list.

And the Facebook page dedicated to the show will have additional information to help you out.

Book yourselves in for Alexandria trivia on their website or on 8006 3313.

And we will see you at 730pm every Wednesday in Alexandria at the Iron Duke.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 13 July 2025

July 13, 2025Uncategorizedteam name bonus point, triviaiqtrivia

This week we want you to think about everyday items, and then take them beyond their limitations.

Specifically, you’re working with the formula… “every BLANK is a SUCH AND SUCH BLANK if you…”

Look at these examples to get the idea.

Every bag is a sleeping bag if you’re tired enough

Every car is an electric car if you stick an electric motor in the back seat

Every bike is a folding bike if you’re strong enough

Every chair is a lawn chair if you take it outside

Every zoo is a petting zoo if you have no regard for personal safety

Every restaurant is a drive through restaurant if you drive a tank

Every bank is a sperm bank if you’re willing to get arrested for indecent exposure

Any item taken beyond its usual context will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

A player mistook My Little Pony for Schindler’s List.

Someone’s commitment to their tournament team name led to them getting a “tattoo”.

And there are three teams at the top of the table in our quarterly tournament with 2 wins in 2 weeks.
