INTERESTING MOMENTS
We had a number of team dancing to our music questions, one more than one occasion, at more than one quiz.
A team made up entirely of Swedish people were the first to get a bonus question about Ian Thorpe & Glenn McGrath. Swedes knew more about Australian sporting heroes than Australians. (Either that or they got lucky.)
We asked a question on AFL clubs, and one team objected on the grounds that they had never heard of the AFL.
After getting a bonus question on French literature, one player shouted “EXISTENTIALISM! POW! POW! POW!” We are pretty sure that exact combination of words has never been said in the history of mankind.
See you next week.
