This Week in iQ Trivia – 5 June 2021

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.

JACKPOT

They won both first place AND the jackpot so it was a pretty good night.

We’re pretty sure they got lucky on a question about Qatari towns, but it still counts.

And this guy didn’t need any help to win based on his knowledge of AFL songs & French composers.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked about countries with the highest Jewish populations, and had to remind a couple of teams that Bondi is not a country.

A team with French speakers in regular attendance suffered through a question on the French language, because the Francophones chose this week to be absent.

And our bonus round which asked people about a famous place that was 135 metres high and cost £70 million to build… resulted in one team guessing “The Maldives”. You know, the country made up of over 1,000 islands and was apparently built for the low price of £70 million. (This is what happens when you don’t pay attention.)

See you next week.
