Here are some of the questions asked at a "pub quiz" about the Olympics; sadly I didn't know most of them despite hours and hours watching Bob Costas
- year and location of the first Winter Olympics
- which country has hosted the most Winter Olympics (France, Italy, Sweden, US, Japan)
- how many reporters were at the Olympics?
- how many meals were served?
- how many countries participated?
- how much was spent on the opening ceremony?
- how much did NBC pay for TV rights?
