Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 23 November 2025

Last week we asked a current events question about United Airlines who is claiming that a window seat doesn’t require a window.

That got us thinking that there are plenty of other similar claims that can be made.

So for your team name this week, we want you to come up with something else that doesn’t require what it sounds like it requires.

An exit row doesn’t require an exit

Ordering fish & chips doesn’t mean you get fish… or chips

A steering wheel doesn’t need to be able to steer

Boneless chicken wings contain bones

A cheeseburger is made of cheese, the burger part is extra

Any justifications for shortchanging people will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

A new team played the jackpot round, knew the answer, but it didn’t strike them that they had to bring it up. And that cost them $130.

In the categories bonus round, one team tried to argue that heroin was a reason to borrow money, a way to kill time, something they bought in the last month, and something to bring on holiday.

Instead of Bridget Jones’ Diary, one team thought it was Jeffrey Epstein’s Diary.

If you’re the loudest team at a trivia night, you don’t get to complain that it’s too loud to hear the questions.

And our quarterly tournament leaders are proving difficult to catch.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 16 November 2025

Anyone can get a trivia question wrong.

But recently one of our teams got a question REALLY wrong. Instead of the correct answer of the quirky Zooey Deschanel sitcom New Girl… they said Game of Thrones. Which is about as far from the plotline and aesthetic of New Girl as you can possibly get.

So for your team names this week, we want you to get a question as wrong as possible.

Bali is part of Australia

Sweet Home Alaska

Greenland is covered in rainforests

Cocoa comes from coconuts

Any spectacularly wrong trivia answers will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
