TEAM NAMES
Chat GPT surely has some interesting origin stories for your made up idioms.
If you have a ladder, don’t swim in the ocean
A bird on the road keeps the doctor away
A watched stream never flows backwards
No skin off my teeth
When ants go to discos
It’s easier to scratch a dog than shake a cat
Like a frog with a tuxedo
The early bird gets its wings clipped
Too many cockroaches at the table
I wouldn’t hang my coat on that
A fool and his money are are a girl’s best friend
You don’t set mousetraps under a full moon
Eyeliner doesn’t make a polar bear a panda
Never trust a sailor with a purse made of bacon

INTERESTING MOMENTS
When we asked a question on brands of golf balls, one player suddenly became very interested in the golf that was on TV.
One player who had just returned from the bar was sent up to face the bonus round by a friend. Neither of them had the slightest idea what it entailed, and they wound up naming a grand total of zero artists who have recently won the Grammy for Best Record, instead of the 12 they were tasked with.
Jared Leto’s role in Fight Club was described as “dude who gets beat up”. Which, to be fair, is not entirely wrong.
We had a pregnancy announcement at one quiz, and a promise that if the baby comes on a Monday, they will be brought to trivia on the Tuesday to get them the best start in life.
And our leaders have maintained their spot at the top of the table.
