~ My extensive knowledge of the Cain and Abel storyline - from watching Supernatural not from attending Catholic School for 13 years mind you - didn't help at all with answering a question regarding Adam and Eve's bloodline.
~ For some unknown reason the half time question was about world's deadliest animals according to Bill Gates. While we were able to come up with 2 of the 5, I'm still mostly curious as to why we care what the 5 deadliest animals are in the world according to a tech guru. Shouldn't we care more about what the World Wildlife Federation has to say than the dude that created computers?
~ It is possible to jump from about 38 feet into a pool of 12 inches of water. I would not want to be the person to test out that theory.
~ I'm in a small minority of one on my trivia team that doesn't have any allegiance to Full House. You would have thought the Super Bowl was on the way my team reacted to Full House coming on in the bar this evening. I just don't get it.
~ F. Scott Fitzgerald must be the only American writer the question-writers know because every single time we have an American Writer question, the answer is Fitzgerald, so much so that we guessed and wrote Fitzgerald before the question was even asked.
~ The International Space Station is the second brightest object in the night sky, travels at 5 miles a second and was captained for the longest time by Scott Kelly. Unfortunately, we only know Scott Kelly. Also, seeing as this was a Mystery Category, our complete lack of knowledge of anything NASA related, didn't help.
~ But for some reason we did know that the army in China is called the People's Liberation Army - what exactly does that say about us?
~ Who knew being able to correctly list all the 7 dwarves and put them in alphabetical order - the best kind of order! - would ever come in handy?
~ Seems kind of snobby of us but our team only knew when the Maryland leg of the triple Crown occurred. Yay for pulling out a total guess and Yay for the Derby being in May!
