First of all I would like to thank everyone for giving trivia questions. Unfortunately I needed the answers so I was not able a lot of the questions. BTW there were some very good ones, but I did not have time for a lot of research. There were even a few that I had used in the past like the Elvis tractor one. As time goes on I am always looking for information to use as trivia questions. Numbers 7, 11 and 19 all came from this page in the last few months and were really enjoyed by the people at the party. It gave them a good laugh. Thanks again!
