The JOE Friday Pub Quiz: Week 139

Rich Cooper

JOE Friday Pub Quiz

There’s no Pub Quiz intro this week.

Instead, here are the first few lines from Dante’s Inferno. Enjoy!

MIDWAY upon the journey of our life

I found myself within a forest dark,

For the straightforward pathway had been lost.

Ah me! how hard a thing it is to say

What was this forest savage, rough, and stern,

Which in the very thought renews the fear.

So bitter is it, death is little more;

But of the good to treat, which there I found,

Speak will I of the other things I saw there.

I cannot well repeat how there I entered,

So full was I of slumber at the moment

In which I had abandoned the true way.

 

…good shit, huh?

This week’s Sport round comes courtesy of JOE’s very own Site Editor for Sport Wayne Farry. Why? Because, once again, I ran out of time, hence fucking off the intro. It’s a good round though, so thanks to Wayne for bailing me out.
