The second pub quiz of 2018 in Buenos Aires is delayed from our usual second Monday by Carnival, so we’ll be meeting up at La Cigale on Monday 19th for the February quiz. Will it as exciting a finish as January’s three-way tie for first place? You’ll have to come along to find out! This month’s quiz sees me inevitably caving in to the fact that inflation exists in Argentina; from February onwards the entry fee will be AR$30 per person. It had been AR$20 for so long that I was tempted to put it up by more, but...

The alphabet round is no more, but there’s still plenty of trivia to go around. It’s also one last chance to play for the price of just AR$20 per person, as next month...

This year, I’ve been totting up the cumulative scores for all of our regular teams, and on Monday night at the end of the December Pub Quiz, I had the pleasure of crowning the inaugural BA Pub Quiz Annual Champions. Cat’s Whiskers took the prestigious Jonathan Evans Memorial Mate (Jonathan, the founding Quizmaster of the BA Pub Quiz, has said he’s honoured at having a trophy named after him), building a comfortable lead early in the year and finishing some way clear of Cheese & Fernet, who stormed past a depleted Let’s Get Quizzical to claim second place in...
