INTERESTING MOMENTS

Cities with high NRL attendance? Adelaide, Sydney, Perth said one team who probably didn’t know what NRL is. When we suggested they change some, they scratched out Sydney.

One team forgot to do their homework on Swedish Prime Ministers so they guessed the names of ABBA members, and because Andersson is both a member of ABBA and a recent Prime Minister, they still got one.

You know that famous Dylan Thomas poem? “Do not go gentle into that good night. Take as many of the bitches down with you as you can.”

One player complained that in asking about high population Sydney suburbs, we didn’t count dead people. Because that’s a totally normal way to count population.

See you next week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

After we mentioned there would be a question on wheat somewhere on the quiz, one team answered “wheat” no less than 6 times on the quiz, but unfortunately not where it would have been correct.

The special subject at one of our quizzes was intersectional feminism, and when we asked the first question, LITERALLY every person in the room was a man.

One team nearly left before the results. It’s a good thing they didn’t, because they won.

See you next week.
