On the 16th of March, the UK Government advised that social gatherings should not take place. Andrew Wildgoose (Goose), had spent nine years building a company that delivers over 45 pub quizzes a week in bars and venues across Scotland. In the space of a couple of hours, the company had no revenue.
The Goose's Quizzes team pivoted quickly and on Tuesday the 17th of March launched Goose In Yoor Hoose (twitch.tv/goosesquizzes) - an online pub quiz.
