Quiz: Are you smarter than Ireland's best quizzers?
A team of 25 attended the Celtic Nations championships last weekend but how well would you have done?
LAST WEEKEND SAW some of Ireland’s top quizzers head to the Celtic Nations Quiz Championships in Edinburgh.
A team of 25 from Ireland competed at a number of events – in both pairs and as individuals – with Ireland coming second overall.
The Irish quizzers last won first place in 2016.
The competition sees well-known quizzers including chasers like Mark ‘The Beast’ Labett, representing Wales, and Anne ‘The Governess’ Hegarty representing Scotland, from The Chase.
So in light of that, we had a quiz champion from the Irish Quiz Organisation design a quiz for TheJournal.ie.
