Trivia, not Trivial
I like pub quizzes, although I'll admit I'm much better at the 'pub' side of things than the 'quizzing'. Our team never wins, although we do hold our own in the 'enjoying your beer' round.
I've learnt a lot from these quizzes, and I now know lots of fascinating trivia facts... Did you know?
There are more chickens in the world than people.
Horses cannot vomit.
The first female monster to appear on the big screen was Bride of Frankenstein
Noway consumes more spicy Mexican food than any other European Nation.
The cat is the only domesticated animal not mentioned in the Bible.
In the 1940s, the Bich pen was changed to Bic for fear that Americans would pronounce it "bitch."
Herring is the most widely eaten fish in the world.
No president of the United States was an only child.
A Sultan's wife is called a Sultana.
Months that start on a Sunday always have a Friday the 13th.
In the 18th century all carrots were Purple or White. Dutch farmers cultivated orange ones only because it was their national colour.
'TYPEWRITER' is the longest word that can be created by using only the top row of the keyboard.
Leonardo Da Vinci invented the scissors.
Sadly, none of these trivia facts will help you enter PokerStars Trivia freerolls!
These special 'Quiz' events are part of PokerStars 10 Billionth Hand Celebration. To enter each freeroll you'll have to answer a PokerStars Trivia Question. These freerolls run each day until May 22nd, at 00:10, 09:10, 13:10 and 19:10 ET. More details can be found on our Trivia Freerolls page. You can find these events in the 'Tourney' lobby, and there's a $1000 prizepool for all those who know their PokerStars, and their poker playing!
So far these Trivia teasers have tested player's knowledge with...
What color are Diamonds in the PokerStars Four Color Deck?
When did PokerStars first have over 100,000 players simultaneously online?
What job did 2003 WSOP Main Event Champion Chris Moneymaker hold before becoming a professional poker player?
Good luck!
And on a final Triviatastic note... Did you know that Alka Seltzer makes seagulls stomachs explode?
