Have you ever used a fitness tracking app or a smartwatch?

Why people ask this

This question works because the yes-or-no split always surprises the room — someone answers in a way nobody expected, and the conversation starts from there. Sport questions surface the worst-injury and quit-the-team stories that rarely come up unprompted — and the non-athletes in the room often deliver the funniest answers. What makes this format durable is that a no can be just as interesting as a yes. 'No, but I once…' or 'No, and here is why not' opens a conversation the question never directly asked for. The best sessions are ones where the follow-up runs longer than the question itself.
