Someone asked for the best pub quiz team names they’ve ever heard – 22 jackpot-winning answers
The pub quiz is a fine British tradition. Us Brits are very fond of both trivia and booze, and the combination of both in a pub setting is an absolute winner. We can’t help thinking that Only Connect and University Challenge could both be improved by the teams involved being a bit sloshed.
Pub quizzes are also a great way for folk to get creative when it comes to choosing that all-important team name.
Twitter user Andy Bush asked his followers to share their favourites that they’d heard in the wild, and we’re very glad that he did.
