Of course, being in Charlotte, most every one of my buddies are Panthers fans.

We've been quite disappointed lately, for obvious reasons. Epsecialy last season... that was pitiful for us, lol

Sweet Candace December 16th, 2011 9:37 AM

I live so close to Philadelphia and I have to deal with when the Eagles win. But when they lose, I make sure to rub their defeat in their fans' faces.

Espeically if they lose to the Cowboys. ;)

I wish I could have had some of you sports-minded people with me last night for pub trivia. There was a whole section of sports questions, which is totally unfair for someone like me.

Meganium December 16th, 2011 11:52 AM

I love being the *only* Steelers fan here in my current town. :)

Sweet Candace December 16th, 2011 12:08 PM

I hate Pittsburgh. Their fans aren't as obnoxious as Eagle fans are, but they can get pompous and obnoxious.

They may have 6 titles, but they won 5 fair and square. (SB XL, they totally paid the refs off.)

Mr. X December 16th, 2011 12:29 PM

Am I the only one here who, you know... Doesn't care about pro sports?

Best part about the trailer for the third Batman movie - Bane blows up Hienz Field during a football game with actual Steelers players. Trolol.

I have no idea what anyone is talking about when it comes to sports omg

The team that's really starting to get my goat now with the way they play is the Detroit Lions. Ridiculously dirty play.

What other sections were there? For some people, the sports ones are all they're good at. (b'-')b My specialty would probably be geography.

I know zero about sports of any sort, but I do know that, living in Cincinnati as I do, everyone hates the Steelers. Apparently Bengals fans consider them their rivals, though they're probably just jelly that the Steelers have won the Super Ultimate Football Cup thing and they haven't.

Livewire December 16th, 2011 8:26 PM

^ YES, CINCINNATI IS HOME TO NOT ONE, BUT TWO POKECOMMUITY LEGENDS. CITY OF THE GODS.

Chairman Kaga December 16th, 2011 8:37 PM

Well, technically, I only live in the Cincinnati tri-state area, but it's not like anyone other than a very small number of Civil War buffs would recognize the tiny godforsaken hellhole I live in anyway :p

You want to know how backwards my town is? During the Civil War, we SIDED WITH THE CONFEDERACY. Abolitionists and Union sympathizers were excommunicated from churches, shunned in the community, and possibly even driven from town. Yeah...

There was one on dogs where you had to know what breed a bunch of famous dogs were. And like, by famous I mean one of the dogs was Scooby Doo.

I'm guessing one of the questions involved Snoopy?

Mr Cat Dog December 17th, 2011 3:27 PM

Snoopy's the weirdest looking beagle I ever did see!

Actually, no. There were a bunch from movies I'd never heard of. A lot of the questions overall are aimed for people who are at least in their 30s so I'm usually just sitting there feelin' dumb. :(

Well then. That may have been a bit challenging. Though you would think Snoopy would be among those since he's even older than that.

I know, right? I guess they want to make it harder than that. But most of the people there are older anyway. It's not like I live in a college town or anything so I'm one of the youngest people there when I do go.

Maybe the way they decide the questions is by asking a teenager they know if they've heard of something or know something, and if they haven't heard of it or don't answer correctly they add it to the trivia questions. :P

Palamon December 17th, 2011 4:19 PM

Snoopy kind of bugs me. I always disliked his personality. I kind of liked Woodstock better.

It would be a cunning plan if they did.

And Woodstock is a great character, but he can't quite compete with Snoopy as Joe Cool.

If I ever run a trivia night I am most definitely going to use that method to weed out easy questions.

Joe Cool is Snoopy's second best persona, in my opinion. My favorite is his World War I flying ace persona.
