What was it, Shabba? People often get different questions and in different orders to stop multis cheating.
Oh right didn't realise that.

Paraphrasing - What kind of car was Princess Diana travelling in when she died?
A joyless arsehole.

Mercedes. :) Maybe slightly ghoulish, but it's well known.

Like Sub said, that one recurs quite a bit so no need to read the question.
Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline.

Cheers, Carlos.
Was pretty close for first two weeks, then I had a lucky run and pulled away a bit.
You are definitely biting at my heels, though.
Unlucky, pal :drinkers:

The quiz is very American-centric

Who was the head coach of the Oklahoma Sooners College Football team between May 1979 and June 1978

Which UCLA college quarterback threw for 4,500 yards in the 1923 season

Which Baseball pitcher was born Harry John William Thomas in 1873

And why would an American even know this? How many people here would know what college UK sports people graduated from?

I think most Americans who are into sports would know, given how popular college sports are, and the viewing figures for the draft etc

Yeah, college sports are huge in America. The vast majority of American Football and Basketball players come through the college ranks.

Lets be honest we'd all be smelling a rat if the question was 'What University did Wayne Rooney graduate from'
A joyless arsehole.
