Anyone got any great pub quiz questions?

millie&me, 4 December, 2008 at 13:26 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 10

I'm in the process of writing a pub quiz for tonight - its the christmas special (woooo!) so I'm trying to make it half way decent.

Normally have 6 rounds of ten questions on various subjetcs, mid-older age group contestants!

Anyone know of any good sites where i can find some interesting topics and questions - my brain clearly isn't working today!

TIA Nicky

    I'm not much help as I'm notoriously bad at quizzies. I won boobie prize (age 14) at the churche quiz, in a team with my 80 yr old grandmother, her 75 yr old sister and their friend (oh the shame, we got out of date cream eggs ?) and won a special prize (age 16) when answering the question "What is paleontology?" with "the study of buckets". (Do people in England call buckets pails? If not, you might not get that. ?

    Oh, there's one I got right a long time ago - hmm, can't quite remember the wording, but it's something along the lines of : "In the 1700's Britain lost 11 days of time. Why?" The answer is that we changed over from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar.

    Also, if a human neck has 7 vertebrae, how many does a giraffe's neck have? Answer : 7
