Pub Quiz Questions
I'm sorting out a pub quiz at work next Thursday, as we have the new batch of grads joining.
I've got most of the rounds sorted out.
Picture Round - Decided to do Celebrity Pictures, but their real names are required for a correct answer.
Game Show Round - So puzzles on a sheet, some are Only Connect - Only Consonant style ones. There are some countdown ones (both number and conundrums), and then of course some Pointless ones, where the team with the best answer getting the point.
Film Round - Was just do movie quotes.
Just struggling a bit for Sports questions and General Knowledge. Does anyone have any good ones I can steal?
Any good ideas for a music round would be appreciated also, but I can always just pick 10 songs if needs be.

For the music round, play a load of 80s indie bands, along with a few singer-songwriter types and some Hawkwind.Beefheart wrote:
