Fun fact about #1: His high school played mine years ago, before he was famous.
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that!?
DeleteHey, I was close today! (Always a great feeling :) ) I got #1 wrong, but therefore I knew the bonus. You could/should make a weekly post of trivia *hint* *hint*
ReplyDeleteIt has been fun! I'm definitely going to consider it an annual A-Z event!
DeleteMaybe not weekly, but monthly would be fun! This blog needs a revamp anyhow!
I got 1,3 and 5. Can't believe I forgot Mozart. Carrie's fact is awesome. Thanks for such a great month of Trivia and taking part in the A-Z Blog Challenge.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a lot of fun Sheena-kay! I'm a little worn out...but that could be my junk food addiction and lack of exercise.
DeleteWow, I got four of them right. Though I should admit that some of them were guesses. This has been a fun A-Z
ReplyDeleteHey, if you guess and get it right, it counts lady!
DeleteI missed the basketball one. (Not a big b-ball fan) but nailed all the others! Woo hoo.
ReplyDeleteI'm not either, but I have family who live in Akron, so I hear all about LeBron!
DeleteBummer, I missed the fifth one!
ReplyDeleteThat's a kick yourself one too. You see the answer and think, man I knew that!
DeleteNumber one stumped me, but I got the others.
ReplyDeleteSports trivia is my weakest spot too.
DeleteI didn't get #1, either. Oh well, can't get 'em all!
ReplyDeleteI've loved your quizzes. See you for one more day of this Challenge.
No you can't, but you've done amazingly well!
DeleteI knew them all except #4...I'm going to miss these little quizzes after A to Z is over.
ReplyDeleteIt has been fun. Maybe we can do a monthly trivia...or go visit Alex C. and do his movie trivia.
