INTERESTING MOMENTS

When we asked about the number of holes on belts, someone on every team removed their belt. Yes, we effectively invented strip trivia.

One player’s initial guess on a language question was shot down as ridiculous by his teammates, before several hints led them back towards the fact that he had been right all along. Smugness ensued.

When we played a song by the Cranberries, one team answered that it was titled “the one that isn’t Zombie.”

A question on actors in Home Alone resulted in answers of Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci… and “the other guy”.

See you next week.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 29 January 2023

We’re dealing with people in songs this week.

Think about the people in one of your favourite songs, and tell us what you think they’re doing now.

Sk8er Boi attempted a career in the UFC and is now hawking cryptocurrencies

Roxanne transitioned from turning on the red light to campaigning against sex work

Jolene lost her flaming locks of auburn hair when she developed alopecia

Any update on the life story of someone in a song will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

This is George Gregan.

This is George Brandis.

Someone mixed them up.

We had a margin of victory of 24 points. Which might be a record.

And one team promised if they won that they would sing their team name… and then they did. So we got to hear what the opposite of the Aeroplane Jelly advert sounds like.

See you next week.
