UGH! Audience fail. I had that one even without the answer choices. But, I'm a big sports fan, so...

I'm not a sports fan, and the right answer came to me, too.

But the audience was too influenced by the modern "everybody gets a trophy for participating" outlook--the same one that has the APs talk about auditioners who "non-passed" the test instead of failing it.

But Lombardi wouldn't have gone in for any such word games.

1. Hollywood is otherwise known as "Tinseltown." Easy.

2. easy. I learned this in 10th grade biology class.

3. jump #1

4.jump #2. Ouch! That audience result was tough. I probably would've fallen for the same distractor.

I've heard this a zillion times. I wonder what the winning coaches say. Probably, "We won!"
