Friday Quizzes & Trivia

"Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday!" Oh no...not THAT song again! Why is Friday so amazing? What's the significance? Well, for some it might be that you get to leave work early, for others, it might mean sports day, or sewing lessons. Either way, what it signifies is the end of the week, and the beginning of the weekend!

But how much do you know about Fridays? Why is Friday the 13th the most dangerous day to be out on the roads? Where did the name originate from? Was it Greek, Norse or Roman? What's so special about the movie "Friday"? Think you can answer those questions? Maybe it's your way of relaxing? Everyone likes to relax on Fridays, right? Well what about DJ's and waiters? Which day is their Friday? Does Friday have to be the 5th day of the week? If you can answer any of these "end-of-week" questions, why aren't you? Go ahead, I dare you!
