Quiz Night

The Woodman's weekly quiz has an unusual prize setup: second-to-last place gets 25 pounds. Entry's three quid, winners take a 50-pound gift card. It suggests the host wants a full room back, not just the trivia types.

Quiz nights work best with the right mix of people and plenty of chat between rounds. This one's built for teams and mates rather than specialists. You show up, someone takes it seriously, the rest mostly drink and find reasons to argue about the answers.
