Monday Mini Quiz: Ketchup, Time Travel and Heroics

Happy last Monday of April ,


Here at Trivia Mystery, we are seeing winter snow warnings, so it seems spring hasn't sprung quite yet. Being stuck inside means we've written too many quiz questions for this week's edition of our Monday pub quiz live stream. Warm up your brain for the week and then get yourself registered for tonight's main event.


Last week, Happy Wade shot to viral fame after he saved his wife by throwing __________ across his lawn.


  1. a venomous snake
  2. an attempted kidnapper
  3. a rabid bobcat


In early drafts of Back to the Future the time machine was not a car, but what?

  1. a refrigerator
  2. an ice cream truck
  3. a shower


Inventor of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell suggested answering the phone by saying _________.

  1. Yo!
  2. Ahoy!
  3. Who calls there?


According to The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, when is it acceptable to put ketchup on a hot dog?

  1. when the consumer is under 18
  2. only in the summer months
  3. never


Hopefully this mini-quiz worked up your mental appetite. Remember tonight's quiz starts at 8:00pm in London. [That's 2:00pm in Chicago for our American friends.]

Answers: Happy Wade tossed a rabid bobcat to save his wife. Back to the Future would have been a lot different with Marty time-traveling in a refrigerator. Alexander Graham Bell wanted us to say "Ahoy" when answering a phone, but Thomas Edison popularized "hello." Finally, per the NCDSC website:


Don't: Use ketchup on your hot dog after the age of 18. Mustard, relish, onions, cheese and chili are acceptable.

That's all for this week! See you tonight!
