Man in the Stand Quiz

It’s time for another Man in the Stand Quiz.

Because no fully correct entries were received last time, the prize has now jackpotted to a 200 dollar voucher from Lone Star Bar and Cafe www.lonestar.co.nz

In the event of more than one winning entry, a draw will decide the winner. Cloning another contestant’s answers word for word is not acceptable.

In the unlikely event of no correct entries, the prize will jackpot to a 300 dollar voucher for the next Man in the Stand competition.

Good luck.
