Bumper Summer Quiz 2013
21st May 2013
HERE it is...what you've been waiting for since last season finished...
That's right – it's the Official Argyle Bumper Summer Quiz.Starting from Tuesday, we will post two rounds of 10 questions per day until Saturday, all with different Argyle themes.
All the questions are based on this season and all but a small percentage of the answers can be found within the confines of this website.
All you have to do is make a note of the answers and then, at the end of the week, email them to media@pafc.co.uk.
The winner will become the proud owner of this year's Box of Whatever.
The contents of the Box of Whatever are...well, whatever we put into it when we spring-cleaned the Home Park Communications office at the end of last season.
The contents probably redefine the expression 'mixed bag' - there are things to wear; things to look at; things which footballers have scribbled on; old things; new things; and general things. We take no responsibility for what you may find there.
In the unlikely event of no member of the Green Army scoring 100%, the most correct entry will win the Box of Whatever.
The closing date for entries is Wednesday, June 5.
Here's the first two rounds. Good luck.
