How is Guess The Year still a radio feature?

DJ plays a song from the 80s and people still, in the age of smart phones and Google, phone in with the WRONG answer.

Tickles me up.

Any other dumb things from pre-internet/smartphone days that still go on that make you laugh?
 
Yea but really, people pick the phone up to call the radio station with the wrong answer.

I am aware it's just a bit of fun, something that appears to be MISSING from this forum, but I just think it's funny that people call up with the wrong answer.
 
Don't they do this with a montage of tiny half second clips though? Wouldn't have thought a smartphone would be able to resolve such short bursts.
I listen to more of the golden oldies so I assume the callers aren't so tech savvy. It's not a competition, just a bit of fun to get yourself on the radio. I've just never felt compelled to call in with the wrong answer.
 
Gets me when they announce it and say “It was all the way back in...2004”!

I mean wow, long time ago! Not the mid 70s, but back when we had broadband, mobiles, two decent cars per household, online shopping, a thousand TV channels :p
If you're a 23 year old Radio One DJ then I guess 2004 seems a long time ago :D
