Results: Winners: Ranajeet Soman and Ramanand (25 points) 2nd: Venkat S and Arnold D'Souza (20) 3rd: Samrat Sengupta and Maitreyi Gupta (19.5) Report:  An excellent set of questions on sports and entertainment (side aside: why is there a spate of Sports+Entertainment quizzes in recent times, "SpEnt" as it is referred to. Has the potential of just a Sports or an Ent quizzes been spent?). Most questions were very workable, even the ones masquerading as hip-hop questions. Got something to say yourself?
