General Knowledge!
« on: March 16, 2008, 11:15:40 PM »
Well I thought about posting this for a while now, and I decided to go ahead.


Basically, someone posts a general knowledge question. The person who guesses the answer correctly then posts the new question, etc.

RULES:

  • Please do not use the Internet or other resources to get the answer. (You're only cheating yourself!)
  • Please only post another question if your one is confirmed to be right (VIA post, PM, vent..etc)

Good luck!

New question:

What team is David Beckham, the footballer, currently playing for? On loan, I should stress.

Yes and no. But mainly no.

I was meaning the team that he played for last night. (European time.)

Ooo, a football question, something I would have known. Too bad I didn't see it in time. :P

Rugby was an olympic sport during some of the first olympic games.  It was dropped in 1924, but was recently voted to become an olympic sport again in the 2016 games in Rio.

What country is the reigning olympic rugby champion (winner of the gold in 1924)?

It's either England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Great Britain, France, Australia, or South Africa.

So I will say Great Britain.

No, not Great Britain, and just in case, no, not Usain Bolt.

South Africa?

Australia?

Edit: I've just read the answer and a) it's not Australia and b) I would never have guessed them in ... about 50 guesses.
