And here are the results of the final ZZ Top quiz. Eric Bougeard won
this quiz with a stunning 85 points! Finally a real ZZ fan :).

But Adri Verhoef had some luck on his side and with his 48 points he
gets a total of 87 points which is 2 more than Eric! Congratulations!

Overall, these quizzes have been way too difficult I guess, so when I
find the time, I'll make an easy (?) "Weird Al" Yankovic lyrics quiz.

Seeya later,
Walter.
