Rules: Trivia question is asked by Q. The first team to answer correctly gets to stay at the lower level of the top deck and do an ab circuit (5 crunch up, 5 V ups, 5 pulse up, hold plank). Loser does 10 burpees then quadrophilia up the ramp to touch the wall and back.

-A wrong answer results in 10 burpees, followed by quadrophilia

-Abstaining from answering results in 5 burpees, followed by quadrophilia. Sometimes abstinence is the safest way.
