Trivia

We came in 4th by one measly point. We were in first, but spectacularly blew the lead with our ill-advised wagering. Still fun, though. Here goes:

Round 1 -

  6. Bonus: Who were the three original members of the band Nirvana?
Round 3:
  1. Movies: What George Lucas film made only 750,000 at the box office, but is the most profitable film in Hollywood history?

  3. Polka: Who is the "American Polka King?" (Hint: He shares a name with an accordion-playing pop star.)
  4. U.S. Capitals: What is the capital of Montana?
  5. Art History: What artist created "Sunday Afternoon on the Grande Jette" (sp?)?
  6. Bonus - 80s Sitcoms: Name the four actresses who played the leads on The Golden Girls.
Round 4:
  1. TV Commercials: What was Mr. Whipple's catchphrase?
