Free Tie-Breaker Pub Quiz Questions & Answers

Stuck with a draw? You’re in the right place. A great tie-breaker settles the score, and we’ve got plenty for free.

Writing a tie-breaker question is actually harder than you think!

A good tie-breaker shouldn't be something that is just general knowledge, and ideally not an obvious number. How high something is, what year a shop opened their doors, or how many episodes of a TV show are all good examples of a tie-breaker.
