Welcome to the Los Angeles Times News Quiz. If you’re here to play for the first time, here’s how it works. (And if you’ve done this before — you know who you are — get on with the game!)
Each Friday, I serve up 10 handcrafted, California-focused, multiple-choice questions based on stories that appeared in The Times (in print or online) over the previous seven days. This week, for example, we’re taking a look at stories about 3,500 endangered Joshua trees, a Palo Alto donkey with a connection to the big screen, Biden’s border benchmark (try saying that five times fast) and what caused Rubio’s Coastal Grill to shutter 48 restaurants.
Not all Los Angeles pub quizzes are created equal. Here’s a guide to local bar trivia nights that bring a little something extra to the game.
If you’ve kept up with the news of the week, answering these questions correctly should be a breeze. Also, if you enjoyed the quiz and want it to land in your email inbox each week, make sure to sign up for our Monday-through-Saturday Essential California newsletter, which includes a link each Saturday morning. But if you didn’t enjoy the quiz and have thoughts on how to improve it, we’re all ears. Just scroll down and fire away. (Don’t forget to click the green “submit” button when you’re finished.)
Are you ready to have some fun? I am. Let’s get started.
