Punk fans absolutely nailed the Sex Pistols' iconic moments — 'Anarchy In The UK', the BBC ban, and Malcolm McLaren's management all scored a perfect 100% — yet 1 in 9 fans still mistakenly handed The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle to The Clash, making it the one Sex Pistols fact that slipped through the cracks.
Fans were rock-solid on The Clash's music — Combat Rock and Joe Strummer both hit 100% accuracy — but when it came to music history, 33% of fans wrongly believed the Sex Pistols beat The Clash into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, revealing a surprising blind spot in punk's legacy timeline.
