Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 1 August 2021

Uncategorized,

So Brisbane is hosting the Olympics.

That means they’re going to need a mascot.

For your team name this week, we want you to suggest a mascot for the Brisbane Olympics.

Perhaps Captain Underpants would be interested in the job.

There’s also a petition to make a bin chicken the mascot.

Charlie the Cane Toad

Literally millions of spiders

A white elephant

Any suggestions for Brisbane’s mascot will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

Spelling mistakes can matter. Like when you misspell High Hopes as High Hoes. Which means something VERY different.

How I Met Your Mother featured characters like Kramer, Newman, George Costanza, Art Vandelay, and Smelly Cat. Nope. Wrong New York based sitcoms.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We were given “turkey” as the last place subject, and so wrote questions on the bird. It turns out they meant the country. (This is why you should be specific when choosing last place subjects.)

We were pleased to see that the only team to get a special subject question on Parks and Recreation was the team that chose Parks and Recreation as the special subject, which meant that the special subject did exactly what it’s designed to do.

And we had a couple of one off trivia shows to make up for the fact that a lot of our live venues are shut down. If you need online or live trivia for your next event, you know how to contact us.

See you next week.
