This is a contest on a local radio station where you win $100 if you answer them all correctly.

They take about 3 calls a morning and do that daily until someone gets them all right.

I know 4 out of 5 of these but #2 I am not sure of .... I have a idea ..well or 2

1. What is the most common/popular sports mascot?

2. 4 out of 5 Americans have experienced this, but probably few have told even their closest friend.

3. What is said to be the smartest breed of dog?

4. What city has the most Rolls Royces' per capita?

5. This move by American Airlines in 1987 saved them a estimated $40,000.00


I won't post the answers ~flex~ that I know.... but the 2nd one has me thinking....

And no I won't slit the money if I win....at least I am honest :P

#5 They took one olive out of the dinner salad. (Yes, I am serious.)


#3 Should be easy to find on the net.

Jeeze that's got me stumped. Actually all of them do, talk about trivial. And it's only $100 for this, I hope it's not a $100 gift certificate or anything. Maybe I'm just bad a triva, you don't wanna see what my crosswords look like.
Maybe I just need to get out more.

Hong Kong?

You sure it isn't Beverly Hills? (Yes B.H. IS a city, not a town)

About #2, I've gotta go with a homosexual experience? Or Sexual harrasment?

And for the record, I'm the "5" out of the "4 out of 5".

I'm FAR too ugly for that.

The old joke "If my dog had your face, I'd shave his ass and teach him to walk backwards" applies to me.


#2 could be ---an out of body experience (?)

For a sec I thought it might be an out of body experience as well... I disreguarded it however because that seems to be something you WOULD tell your bestfriend.

I think Hemorhoids is a pretty good guess....

Don't you think a more appropriate name for hemorhoids would be asteroids?

I would say either those or diarhea.

Diarhea cha cha cha

Damn. I thought it was AA that stopped painting their entire airplanes, but that mus´t have been some other airline that did it and saved good fuel-money. Don't blame me. I haven't even been to the usa. *bows down in shame*.

As for #2:

hmm...The uncontrollable urge to appear on the Jerry Springer Show?

2. 4 out of 5 Americans have experienced this, but probably few have told even their closest friend.

pretty sure more then 4 out of 5 americans have had the runs before.

ill assume most people under the age of 20 dont get Hemorrhoids,
there are 74 million people younger then 20 years. out of a total of 248 million, that leaves 174 million out of 248 million or 87/124.
87/124 < 4/5, thats not counting the 3 percent of people who have never had them. So i doubt its hemorroids, bu i could be wrong.

i was gonna say PE, but its a guy thing, that rules out half so....painful urination? Its doubtful that its homosexual experience. I wouldnt think 80% of the pop would have had a homosexual experience.

In all seriousness, and remembering Im a teenager, I think the answer is masterbation. Although I doubt it could be said on the radio, go back to your youth. I bet at least 4 outta 5 tugged away or however you want to phrase it. Did you ALWAYS tell your friends about it? Hmm?

Nah, best friends talk about masturbation... or maybe it's just me.

I'd have to go with STD.

STD's are quite that widespread...more like 1 in 5 people. As for masturbation, Wes is right... This question has been on my mind since I first heard it! It's drivin me crazy.

Actually, I'd be willing to bet Jestah is right (I saw a similar statistic on that a while ago, which I can't really remember, but it was a high percentage). Except that it's doubtful they'd put it in a radio contest.

Is there any significance to it being 4 out of 5 *americans*? That may help a bit... it could be something that can't be done because of poverty, or something. I dunno, I'm reaching here.

ED? Nah... =)

I don't think the answer to #2 is masturbation. With TV, movies, radio and print columnists talking about it, it really seems to be no big deal anymore. I don't think it would be some "shameful secret" that one wouldn't even dare tell their closest friend. (especially you women!! LOL)

Wasn't it Twain who said : "95 percent of men masturbate, the other 5 percent are liars".


Soooo, anyway...I'm changing my answer to : A psychic premonition.

WoW ...... lots of good ideas....... they had some guy on today so no calls for the contest.

I am still not sure what the answer is. But when they take calls they will say.. you got 3 out of the
5 right or what ever. Since I know 4 of the answers maybe that will tell me if a call before me gets
the right answer

I plead the 5th on all the above ideas
