The SportsJOE Friday Pub Quiz: Week 27

Lee Costello

Friday, pub-day, quiz-day, hooray.

Your weekly dose of Friday-pub-quiz-sports action has arrived to help pass your lunch time, and get you into good spirits for the weekend ahead.

We’ve thrown in a pretty tough movie round (sports themed of course) and then littered the rest of the questions with a combination of all of your favourite sports.

If you know your rugby then you’re in with a good chance, but there’s a few classic GAA questions and football/geography ones that may trip you up.

Quiz

Anything above 12, will be rather impressive to be honest, so be sure to boast your score in the comments section on social media, ether to brag or be made fun off.
