Watch Metallica defeat a superfan in a TV pop quiz then rifle through his wallet in search of a cash prize

Metallica

When you’re a band as monumental as Metallica, the press tour around a new album involves a lot more than just a few interviews with magazines and newspapers. National TV shows also fall over themselves to get access to you, very much aware that you’re the men responsible for one of the best-selling and longest-charting albums in history. And sometimes, once they get hold of you, said TV shows can have you doing all kinds of wacky shit.

The Four Horsemen would find that out firsthand in 2016 during a stop at Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote Hardwired… To Self-Destruct. In addition to the band talking to the host, they agreed to do a segment where they would compete in a quiz against a superfan. The twist being that every question in that quiz was about Metallica.
