INTERESTING MOMENTS

The only player on one team who knew about the Newman/Redford film The Sting was Italian, so she answered La Stangata… and got a point given the circumstances.

One team mistook the singer Charlie Puth for the son on the President of Russia and called him Charlie Putin.

When you ask for a bonus point for knowing the stadium in which the first Rugby World Cup Final was played, first you might want to make sure you’ve got the right city… in the right country.

One player did the whitest Beyonce impression we’ve ever seen.

Someone thought you need to make $75k to be in the top half of income world wide, which either means they’re terrible at math or they have a terribly unrealistic sense of money.

Someone tried (and failed) to convince us that pregnancies last ten months instead of nine.

And once again, “Jono” failed to turn up to trivia. You are letting your team down Jono… whoever you are.

See you next week for more iQ Trivia.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

A surprising number of British people didn’t know which way was up on the Union Jack.

Guesses about the distance to the centre of the earth ranged from 50km to 573,000km (which is the distance to the moon and half way back.)

One player complained that there were no questions on sport, five minutes after we asked a five point question on Major League Baseball, because baseball isn’t the right kind of sport, like NRL. Twenty minutes later, we asked an NRL question, which he got wrong, complaining that it was the wrong kind of NRL question.

One team, having chosen their football club’s latest season as their last place subject, couldn’t remember how many goals they had scored. COME ON! We are rigging this in your favour and you’re still not getting it!

And one guy fused Flashdance with MC Hammer sh!t with a rendition of David Brent’s awful dancing from The Office.
