Put these 1970s events in the right order

Rank these chronologically from 1-10!

 The Everett Collection

This one's a little bit different from our other quizzes.

We love the '70s. It was a fabulous decade filled with great pop culture moments. 

But how well do you remember the events? Specifically, can you recall what happened when?

We'll list ten events, and under each will be an option from "1" to "10." Your job is to list the number that would put these events in the right order. 

So if you know the one that happened first, select "1." The last one, of course, will be "10!"


Good luck, and be sure to share your score in the comments section below!


P.S. Take your time and maybe write down your guesses with a pen and paper first. You only get one shot at choosing the correct order! 

  1. Ali defeats Foreman in the "Rumble in the Jungle"
  2. The Munich Olympics take place
  3. Elvis Presley dies
  4. The Godfather is released in theaters
  5. The Beatles break up
  6. Pope John Paul II is elected
  7. The partial meltdown at Three Mile Island
  8. Nixon resigns
  9. The United States Bicentennial
  10. Tennis fans watch the "Battle of the Sexes"

Put these 1970s events in the right order

At 1st I was like uhh waaa with the layout of this one. I scrolled down and guessed Elvis and got it right. I was born in 1969 so that decade was my childhood and don't remember some. Didn't like the layout of this one.

5 out of 10. That was a hard quiz because some of those events happened in the same year.

5/10 I started on 10 and guessed backwards. Graduated in '77 so many dates have just blended together.

10/10. The 70s were my decade. I wrote down all the events and figured out which came first. Then I went back and checked the right number.
Ahhh...the 70s. If only I could go back and do it again.

6/10. Didn't take time to write anything down & missing a couple at first helped fill in the rest...

I am a student of history!

President Nixon put his signature on a resignation letter, but he was still the real elected President
in absentia.
I'm sure this statement might drive any Nixon haters still out there crazy.

It's wrong to assassinate any president figuratively or literally.

Stupid quiz

Agree, it seemed a little too much like homework. 😆

For sure!😄
Was it a stupid quiz? Or did you maybe just... not like it very much? It's okay not to score well on a quiz, but that doesn't necessarily make the *quiz* stupid.

I like your profile picture. I almost forgot about that one.

8/10 I got a couple of the middle years mixed up.

Watching FredFlix helped me put a couple of them in order (Three Mile Island and Pope John Paul II).
Yep, he has some great retrospectives! I go to his YouTube page EVERY day!

10/10 Graduated in 75. Wrote them down. Took 5 minutes to put the correct year next to them.

Me, too (Class of '75). Did the same thing by writing it all down and then picking them out.
I'm Class of '77 so this quiz was EASY!

I didn't do this one. 🐥
I could see a 0 out of 10 in my future if I had. 😆
