INTERESTING MOMENTS
Abdul, one of our regulars, chose to have his birthday at trivia.
He had also chosen the special subject of his own birthday, which naturally, he and his friends aced.
When we asked for the most spoken language beginning with the letter B, more than one team answered “bullshit”. They’re not wrong.
We had to explain to one team that England does not begin with an I. (Well not in English.)
While we were doing a lightning round, one team was trying to photograph the answers off our answer sheet. For that, we assessed a penalty that left them with the lowest score ever at iQ Trivia, which was -1.
And in the same lightning round, one player dropped the ball on a question he really should have known. After the show we found out from his boss that next week he’s having his annual performance review, and that his mistake would be brought up. Yes, iQ Trivia is apparently branching off into HR consultancy.
See you next week.

This Week in iQ Trivia – 11 May 2019
Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.
WINNERS
If you won, here’s evidence just in case anyone doesn’t believe you.
JACKPOTS
They took first place in the quiz, and then allowed another team to choose the jackpot subject as they’ve never won when choosing the subject themselves… and then they won the jackpot.
TEAM NAMES
You have some frankly ridiculous fears… and maybe a few reasonable fears.
Coming last at trivia
Clive Palmer becomes PM
Human eye contact
Beards
Velvet
Turtles
Being watched by a duck
My inner demons don’t like me
Not having a smartphone
Looking after primary aged kids at the beach
The only song on the radio is Love Shack by the B52s, forever
Walking over grates, uneven pavements, or sewer covers
My boyfriend kicking me in the face while we sleep, because, you know, we sleep head to toe, obviously
I cover my feet with a pillow at night so I don’t get stabbed
Trivia hosts
TriviArt
Crocodile Schnitzel
Swimming Pig
Artificial Noun
Fancy Host
Existential Bottles
Sweaty Bird Wine
Drunk Leonardo DiCaprio
Hungry Squirrel
INTERESTING MOMENTS
On a jackpot question about the timing of a WWI battle, one team went two years before the war began, and one team went 26 years after it ended (taking them right into World War II.)
We asked about the label on a bottle of Jack Daniels, and someone went to the bad and ordered a “Jack Daniels and… something.”
One team who doesn’t drink, up an DONATED their bar tab to another team that promised to give it a good home.
And we helped raise over $9,000 for the Steve Burroughs Foundation at a charity trivia night.
See you next week.
