How it works
These 2000 trivia questions and answers are on 2000 to 2009, from a leap day that bent the century rule to the long eclipse of 2009: 120 multiple-choice questions in six rounds of 20, each with its reason and source.
Play the six rounds on a phone or paper
Choose a Round, tap one of four choices and press Check answer: the reason and its source open under the question. For a table, press Print question sheet before anyone answers, because the sheet takes the next 20 questions from where you stand. Print answer key carries the same sheet code.
What each round of the 2000s asks
World news, 2000 to 2009 runs from a recount settled by 537 votes to a vault inside an Arctic mountain. New at home: tech of the 2000s covers flash drives, flat televisions and a format war. The other four take in space, sports, the arts and what a barrel of oil cost.
Tips
- Young players? Set Show only to Easy questions. That keeps 28, such as where the twin rovers landed.
- To split a tie, read the 2000 census question without its four choices and take the nearest guess.
- Born from 1981 to 1996? Set Show only to Millennial mix for the 40 questions you are likeliest to remember.
Questions and answers
Is there a 2000s trivia questions and answers pdf?
Yes. Press Print question sheet and choose Save as PDF in the print dialog. The sheet holds 20 questions with four lettered choices and no answers marked. Print answer key saves a second file with each right letter, its reason and its source.
Can I run this as a 2000s trivia game for teams?
Yes. Press Host a round and each question fills the screen in large type. Add a team for up to six tables, press Show the answer when pens are down, then give a point with the plus under each team that got it right.
Do these questions cover 2000s movies, music and TV?
No. The pack leaves out shows, songs, films, video games and brands, so nothing turns on a lyric or a logo. The arts round sticks to plain facts, such as which award category arrived in 2002 and how a hoard of gold was found.
