Avoid the Obvious: Autumn Edition

Details

Avoid the Obvious is a trivia game with a twist. Each round, players face simple questions with multiple possible responses, but the most obvious choice is off-limits! Can your students think quickly on their feet, outsmart the other team, and avoid blurting out the “easy” answer?

OVERVIEW:
Two teams compete to answer trivia questions with multiple answers, but the most obvious answer is off-limits.

HOW IT WORKS:
Each round, a simple trivia question will appear on screen, but the most obvious answer is off-limits. (Example: Name one of the first 10 presidents… but you can’t say George Washington).

Have teams send up a new contestant each round. Whichever team has the most points at the end of the game is the winner.

The original ""Avoid the Obvious"" had 12 rounds, but this version has 15 to make it a little more adaptable. If a question is too regional or not applicable for your group, just delete it or skip it!
