Finally, we didn't lose on a tiebreaker

Aquamama and I won ye olde pub quiz last night.

Five of the six questions we missed (the sixth we missed so badly we can't remember it):

1. Which NFL team drafted Brett Farve?
2. What is the chemical symbol for Vanadium?
3. What does "SKU" stand for?
4. What Country is Cape Horn in?
5. What movie is the following quote from: "You're a dirty pirate hooker. Why don't you go back to Whore Island?"

The one that we made a wild guess on and got:
6. What is the most populous state capital?

The one that I pulled, somehow, out of the deep recesses of my mind:
7. Which NBA player holds the record for most points scored in a game?

The one that I somehow knew but really had to convince Aquamama of:
8. Which album was on the Bilboard 200 for the longest time?

The one that I am really embarassed that I knew:
9. Name the artist and title for the following lyric: "She's so lucky/she's a star/but she cries cries cries in her lonely heart thinking/if there's nothing missing in my life/then why do these tears come at night?"

Answers after the jump

  1. The Atlanta Falcons
  2. V
  3. stock-keeping unit
  4. Chile
  5. Anchorman
  6. Phoenix
  7. Wilt Chamberlain
  8. Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon
  9. "Lucky", Britney Spears

In a million years I would not have gotten any of them right!

You knew the lyric to a Briney Spears song? Especially a more recent one? I'm embarrassed to know you. For shame.
