It’s been a decade. The world has changed. But we hope you haven’t forgotten what life was like back in the late 2000s. Step into the MagiQuiz time machine! We’re headed back in time ten years to see if you can remember what happened in 2008 (and let me tell you it was more than low rise jeans and shawty getting’ low).
We’ll take you back to 2008 to see if you remember what was happening in politics (there may have been an important election), what was popular at the box office, and which tunes were on everyone’s radio. Only a true 2000s kid will remember everything that happened, from the serious to the ridiculous.
Hop on in! We’ve got a lot of ground to cover and we’d better head back to 2008 if we want to get started. If you think you can ace this quiz, it’s time to get started.
