Every quiz I do, I run the jackpot in the same format. All players pay £1 to take part which buys them a guess. I then ask a knowledge based question where the answer is a %, a year or a number. Closest player comes up to the mic, choses a category and then if they get the question they win whatever the jackpot happens to be. If not the majority rolls over and we play for side prizes of around 10% of the jackpot.
Here were this weeks questions...how would you have done?
Jackpot Round
Online Retailers
In the name of the
online fashion retailer ASOS, what do the initials ASOS stand for?
20th Century Sitcoms
What 20th
century British sitcom followed the lives of the Parkinson family?
Us Geography
The Mississippi River
enters the sea as it passes out of which US State?
Football
The home stadium of
Accrington Stanley shares a name with which famous pop band of the past?
Australian Geography
What is the most populated
city in Australia that is NOT a state capital?
Well I would have picked 20th Century Sitcoms and would have been wrong. Forever forget the family name in Outnumbered!
ReplyDeleteWould have got the two geography ones....I Think
Football

ReplyDeleteAnswers you should have given...
ReplyDelete1. As Seen on Site
2. Butterflies
3. Louisianna
4. Whame
5. Gold Coast
Good stuff.....4 out of 5! One slightly wrong!
DeleteNothing is wrong on there? I assume this for cash....I would have disputed of those if you would have called me wrong
DeleteASOS is the one you are dropping
ReplyDeleteHow?
ReplyDeleteASOS is As Seen on Screen....Had it been a normal round maybe 1/2 a point but with it being a Jackpot round for all the money in front of the whole room you would need to be 100% correct
ReplyDeleteFunny this ASOS one came up last night at the Quiz I got to in Torquay! Worth 4 points as well...so thanks!
ReplyDeleteI see....my mistake. No win for me!
ReplyDeleteDo keep posting these though
Yrs I will. If it gets won I don't ask all 5 so there may only be a few questions per week but let us see! Hoping to upload the full quiz in the coming weeks
ReplyDeleteWould have got Butterflies but little else!
