God, is this really the 85th JOE Friday Pub Quiz?
It’s not a particularly significant number, 85, but Jesus that’s a lot of quizzes. If, for some ungodly reason, you want to go back and do every JOE Friday Pub Quiz that ever existed, just hit that link and get ready to waste a lot of your life.
But anyway, this week’s quiz. Round One is ‘Movie Cameos’, while Round Two is our old friend ‘Theoretical Physics’. It’s not, obviously. It’s ‘Sport’.
Round Three is ‘Which is Closer?’, in which you have to determine which thing is closer to the other thing. The Picture Round this week is Flags, and finally Round Five is our faithful old hound General Knowledge.
There’s a lot riding on this. Don’t mess it up.
