The men's Fifa World Cup kicks off today, presenting a unique challenge for the quiz master: staying awake through countless group matches between obscure teams like Syldavia and Borduria to maintain a streak of watching every World Cup game since 1978, all while functioning as a normal member of society instead of a sleep-deprived zombie.
For you, however, the task is simpler: answer 15 questions covering topical news, general knowledge, and popular culture. There are no prizes, but you also don't need to stay up for a 3 a.m. kickoff. Enjoy! Allons-y!
