Monopoly Quiz Questions

 Monopoly Board Game


Greetings fellow quizzer. The worlds biggest selling board game and the worlds most popular board game by far which sells in over 100 countries and translated into 43 different languages is Monopoly.
So why am I talking about Monopoly when I make quizzes for living? Easy, you can literally make hundreds of quiz questions if you study the game and the good thing is that everybody has played it.

I make fun quizzes for Pubs and Quiz Masters every week and questions like "how many bars are on the jail in Monopoly?" are fun and easy questions that the quiz teams just love to bits. So in this weeks article I'm going to give you some of my favourite Monopoly Quiz Questions and provide you with some extra knowledge so that you can create more of your own.

The Monopoly Board

A picture of a Monopoly Board
Just by studying the board you can get a plethora of questions to quiz your teams. Immediately by looking at the corners I can see that the FREE PARKING car is red, the policeman is blowing a whistle, there are three bars on the IN JAIL picture and the GO arrow is red. Here's some quiz questions I just grabbed from the board in 5 minutes.

Monopoly Questions

1. How many "Chance" squares are there on a Monopoly board?
2. How many Community Chest squares are there on a Monopoly board?
3. How many utility properties are there in Monopoly?
4. In Monopoly, a picture of what is used for Super Tax?
5. Can you name the four Monopoly train stations?
6. What symbol is used for Chance in the board game of Monopoly?
7. How many properties are there on a Monopoly board?
8. On a Monopoly board, what colour is Pall Mall?

Easy questions when you are looking at a picture of the board but not so easy when you are in a pub playing a quiz. There are many more quiz questions you can preen from the picture if you use your imagination.
Let's move onto making more interesting questions by studying the history of Monopoly.

The History of Monopoly

The game has been on sale since 1935 in the US by the Parker Brothers and  later in 1941 in the UK by Waddingtons. It was invented initially by an American woman named Elizabeth (Lizzie) J. Maggie Phillips back in 1903 who made it to teach people about the single tax theory of Henry George. Later Charles Darrow took the idea and created what we now know as Monopoly although it had to go through many updates up to the 1970's before it became what we play today.

Initially, Parker Brothers rejected the game as they said it had 3 major flaws which included the games lengthy game play and complexity. Note: I have seen a quiz question that states that the game had 52 fundamental errors, it is incorrect. When a number of department stores were placing large orders from Charles Darrow for the game the Parker Brothers got wind of it and changed their mind. They bought the copyright from Charles and within a year they were making 20,000 sets a week making Charles the worlds first millionaire game designer in history.

Interesting Facts about Monopoly

The longest ever game of Monopoly lasted for 70 days but other world records include 45 days underwater, 8 days on a balance beam, 11 days in a tree house, 16 days in a moving elevator and 36 hours upside down!

The most expensive set ever made had a price tag of $2 million, the board was made of solid 23 carat gold and the dice were diamond studded.

Jake the Jailbird is the name of the man in jail and the police officer's name is Edgar Mallory.

More than 1 billion people have played the game since 1935.

The name of the mascot, the man in the centre of the board, is Rich Uncle Pennybags.

The game was used to smuggle escape plans into German POW camps during WWII and they even hid real money inside the games play money.

The game has even featured on a US postage stamp.

Tokens from the game have even been flown into space aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis!

Well I hope you enjoyed this article and I hope it has inspired you to create some of your own quiz questions for your pub quizzes just like I do every week. If you would like to play one of my fun quizzes then follow this link to take a look. www.quizpub.co.uk/

Brain Teaser 2, a puzzle just for fun.

Hello fellow quizzers, this is brain teaser is pretty easy but then
again most of my puzzles are. I create these every week for
my pub quizzes and because I've amassed a large amount of
them over the years I'm currently writing a puzzle book. I have
worked out that the book should take me about 2 months to
write and will include picture puzzles like the one below plus
riddles, logic problems, math sequences, odd one out, anagrams,
dingbats, pictograms, catchphrases and a plethora of other fun
things. I will write another article when it's finished to let you know.

In the mean time see how long it takes you to figure out the puzzle below.






Instead of putting the answer to this puzzle here I would welcome you
leaving a comment with what you think the answer should be and why.

And last but not least, the fun quiz round 4 to finish off with, the game show round.
I currently have 3 different game show rounds in my pub quizzes which I alternate
each week so the quizzes are unpredictable and exciting. In this blog I'm going to
finish off with the most popular one which is Family Fortunes.

a dingbats picture handout or a Catchphrase picture handout halfway through the
fun quiz too! You can see an example of some of the catchphrases I make in my older
quiz blogs. In the mean time I found this very funny video of one of the original TV
shows with Roy Walker who hosted the show first, enjoy.

TV Catchphrases

Who from TV said these famous catchphrases?

Bazinga!

Danger, Will Robinson.

They don't like it up 'em.

Is it 'cause I is black?

I pity the fool.

Are you 'avin a laugh?

He's dead, Jim

You should have got nearly all of them.
You probably remember the TV series but can you remember the characters name? Don't skip straight to the answers yet have a good think first, it will be more satisfying when you get them.

OK

Here are the answers..

Bazinga! Was Sheldon Cooper's catchphrase from the award winning and hugely successful Big Bang Theory. He used this phrase instead of gotcha! And most of his jokes were very unfunny, which made them funny. Superb.

"Danger, Will Robinson" was the iconic words spoken by the robot (he didn't have an actual name) from Lost In Space.

"They don't like it up 'em", was one of Lance Corporal Jones's catchphrases from Dad's Army. Other famous catchphrases from Jones were, "Don't panic!" and "permission to speak sir."

Is it 'cause I is black? Was one of many catchphrases from Ali G, the ironic thing is he wasn't black but he was a black rapper wannabe. Sacha Baron Cohen is the actor behind Ali G and the TV show was called "Da Ali G Show" which went on to become a film called "Ali G in da house".

"I pity the fool" is the line every celebrity impersonator quotes when doing a take off of Mr T from the A Team. Mr T you may remember had a fear of flying and all kinds of funny ways were thought up to get him on a plane against his will.

"Are you 'avin a laugh? Is he having a laugh?" Is the catchphrase of a character of a character of the British sitcom Extras. The main characters name was Andy Millman who is a full time Extra for films and who's ambition is to be a famous actor. He got a screen play he wrote accepted by the BBC called "When the whistle blows" and he played a factory manager by the name of Ray Stokes who wears a black curly wig and oversized glasses.

And last but not least, "He's dead, Jim."
One of the top 100 well known catchphrases of all time by the legenday Dr Leonard "Bones" McCoy from Star Trek.

These catchphrases are taken from Quiz Pack 96 from the Quiz Pub UK website.

Thursday 28 March 2013

Catchphrase

Do you remember the brilliant game show called Catchphrase?

It was hosted by a great Irish presenter called Roy Walker and for it's time the cash prizes were very big.

I'm surprised it hasn't made a come back after all these years, but I can only imagine the work involved in creating all the animated pictures that went with each catchphrase.

If you've never seen the show I'll explain.

They took an everyday phrase like fish and chips then turned it into pictures and the contestants had to be the first on the buzzer to guess what phrase the picture represented.

Roy Walker was always saying "say what you see!"

I've made a few examples for you to have a go at yourselves, see if you can get them all correct.








The Quiz Pub UK website is full of fun things to add to your pub quizzes and these Catchphrases are the newest addition.
If you would like to see the answers to the above catchphrases then click this link: Catchphrase and you will see the pictures on the left hand side of the page. Just hover your mouse pointer over the picture to see the answer. Did you get them right?
