INTERESTING MOMENTS
The Canterbury Tales were written by Megan Markle in 2023… apparently.
One of our bonus round questions was about Scandinavian capitals. Every team either put three points on it and said Stockholm and were wrong, or put Copenhagen and were right but put zero points on it.
Albinos and Gingers were put on the same level as Vampires in a Google auto-complete question.
And one team recognised an instrumental version of Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves in the first half, and guessed Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves three more times for the audio questions in the second half. It seems someone is a big fan.
See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS
As soon as we asked people to name gold producing countries, we heard a voice from the back of the room asking “why?” Why? Well, asking questions is kind of what trivia is about, and you chose to come here. (At any rate, they wound up winning on their first try.)
One team found out why you should bring your kids to trivia, when their daughter immediately recognised Old Town Road by Lil Nas X when they had no idea.
Where do Vikings go when they die? Odin’s pool room apparently.
When we asked about four letter words said by trap shooters when they’re ready for a target, we got guesses of c*nt and f*ck. Which would certainly change the atmosphere at the shooting range.
And one player who bid 14 in the bonus round not only got zero, he said nothing and sat right back down when he realised he couldn’t name a single NRL player. It was one of the greatest moments of hubris we have ever seen.
See you next week.
