Last night was the second in a series of ROM Pub Trivia nights at the Fox's Den. With a healthy turnout of 53 people, the crowd was stumped and the winning team managed 37 correct answers out of 56.

How well would you have done?  Test yourself with some of these questions from last night.

  1. NASA has finally answered a long-standing question: all but one of the six American flags on the Moon are still standing.  As of today, what colour(s) are on these flags?
  2. Pliny the Elder, a Roman geologist, died while observing this volcano erupting.  What is the name of this volcano?
  3. This Rolling Stones song features a day of the week as well as the "king of gemstones" in it's title.  What is the name of this song?
