QUIZMASTER Aleisha Riboldi has already set a date for the second Hirafu Pub Trivia Quiz Night at Paddy McGinty’s following the popularity of the last weekend’s event.
Within days of Aleisha’s announcement that she wanted to host a pub quiz, half the town had signed up to take part.
Paddy’s was overflowing with 55 official participants plus a swag of spectators.
Despite the light-hearted nature of the event, competition was fierce with teams racking their collective brains to answer questions like:
What is the world’s most recognised smell?
What was the first product to carry a barcode?
What is the name of the man featured on the Y1000 note?
How high is (Niseko’s most recognised landmark) Mt Yotei?
*Answers below
The quiz night adds yet another event to Niseko’s summer social scene, which is really starting to thrive and help Niseko become a vibrant year-round holiday destination.
Paddy’s owner Roger Donazzan and new part owner Mayumi Kutsumi praised Aleisha’s efforts in organising such a successful community event, and thanked everyone for supporting Hirafu’s only summer pub to help keep it running throughout the off-seasons.
The next night will be held on September 11, kicking off at 7pm at Paddy’s. Take a leaf out of Lambda Lambda Lambda’s text book and get creative for your chance to win best team costume.
