130 free Slogan trivia questions with answers — pop culture quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
126 free slogan trivia questions with answers. Some sentences sell billions of dollars of product on the strength of three or four words. This quiz covers the best of them: Nike's line borrowed from a death-row inmate's last words, the diamond slogan a young copywriter scribbled before bed, the paper towel that got quicker, the elderly woman who asked where the beef was, the milk question an agency thought was too lazy to run, and the cereal sign a Minneapolis ad man sketched on a notepad. Questions run both ways. Sometimes you are given the slogan and asked for the brand; sometimes the brand and asked for its slogan; and the harder ones ask who wrote the line, which agency, and what year. It works for pub quiz rounds, marketing class icebreakers, office trivia and anyone who has ever hummed a jingle they wish they could forget. Every answer has been checked against the brand or campaign's Wikipedia entry, and the sentence that establishes it appears under each question, so you can settle the inevitable argument about whether it was "melts in your mouth" or "melts in your hand".
