I'm big on boxing history, so lets get this show on the road.
What year did John L. Sullivan lose his heavyweight title, and who beat him?

Or is it 4 ?
Can we look it up in a book?
Ah, alright. I'll make an easier question. :)
Very nice, though. It is indeed Gentleman Jim Corbett. He knocked out the Boston Strongboy in 23 rounds in 1892.
Easier general boxing history question for you guys. Sam Langford, known as one of the greatest black champions that never was, was from which country?

Hmmm... Let's stay on the theme of History.
What was the name of the senator from Kentucky that opposed FDR during the great depression?
No idea, should have stuck with Greek mythology. :)
Yeah, I suppose you must have not dived all that deeply into the Great Depression Era and it's political figures, did ya?Quote:

Was he related to early morning grass ?
I can just about get the Roosevelt in the FDR, never mind anything else. :)Quote:

Maybe I should stay away from the lesser known parts of American History.
New question time, I think.
Which Saturday Night Live guest is most famous for his work in the "Cowbell" sketch, saying the line, "needs more cowbell."?

Read up on Huey Long years ago, fought against the rich and powerful then assassinated.
The King Fish was a populist nutjob! His last words were something along the lines of "But I have so much left to do". Added to which indignity its thought that his own fucking bodyguards accidentally shot him trying to hit his assassin :vd:Quote:
