    Trivia

    I just had the following Trivia question:

    Which city hosts the annual little league world series?

    This was the FIRST trivia question. ( 10 points ).

    Its enough that we get an inproportionally large amount of questions on obscure sports like baseball and Nascar. But that we have to answer questions on children sports is ridiculous.

    If this remains the case I will volunteer as trivia writer. I will make a lot of questions about European little league soccer, that I am sure will be very popular with the forum.

    The first question should always be super easy like "What number was Michael Jordan?"

    If you follow sports at all...and don't know this answer...then you are simply a complete dumbfukk.

    End of story.

    I guarantee most people don't know anything about the Little League World Series. I don't get off on watching little children.

    Have any of the people who said it was easy and called me dumbfukks etc been non-americans?

    Because naturally all of you americans know this answer. That is pretty much the point.

    Don't sweat it Pareto...many Americans don't pay attention to little league and half of those same people couldn't even point out Pennsylvania on a map

    I was born there so it's easy for me..but it's also tricky! I was born in Williamsport, PA...but the games are actually played across the bridge in South Williamsport, PA and the people really get pissed when "Williamsport" gets the publicity as the home of Little league baseball.

    Just a little useless trivia

    Its not a big problem. I just found it extremely arrogant and even comical ( much like post #7 in this thread).

    I could also make a trivia question that all my countrymen would find extremely easy, but where the rest of the world would have little chance.

    Anyone more than a casual U.S. sports fan knows the answer to that questions in 3 seconds

    little obscure for non-Americans I guess but same as asking EPL questions or somesuch which pop up on there occasionally
