Forget Valentine's Day and without stepping on the toes of too many Scottish rugby fans this morning, our quiz question tests the knowledge about these two trophies…
Winners
Unfortunately, no Scottish rugby team or Scottish band has won either yet (The Triple Crown was first presented in 2006, whilst Whitburn came runner-up at the British Open in 2017).

Wales on the other hand has claimed the famous Gold Shield at Symphony Hall no less than eight times since 2006, although only once has it coincided with the rugby team winning the Triple Crown — and that was in 2019 (although this picture was taken a few years before by the 4BR Editor)
