    Trivia Question - Do I have a legit complaint?

    What football player first set a record for going to the most Super Bowls in a row?

    Jim Kelly
    Gale Gilbert
    Bart Starr
    Troy Aikman

    I don't understand the question... two in a row could be a record? Can anyone dumb this down for me?

    This was my 175 pt question. Am I deserving of another crack?

    It's confusing to me. Bart Starr went to two in a row, so that would be a record, no? And he was obviously a record-holder before any of the others because Starr was playing by Super Bowls I and II and those other guys came later. However, Starr would've shared that "record" with a number of players.

    Maybe it should be adjusted to which player holds the current record for most SBs in a row?

    Do not see that you have any recourse. Whoever went to 2 in a row first is self-explanatory.

    yea wording of question sucks.

    "first" ruins it.

    reset and correct question imo.

    Shouldn't answer be Bart Starr then?

    He was MVP of Super Bowl I and II.

    Shouldn't be worded that way.

    Going to the most super bowls could mean as a spectator

    Loshak too busy taking players money at the poker table to focus on how he words the questions!

    Gilbert played in five consecutive Super Bowls.

    Trivia randomly questions obscure facts. The question may have been less confusing without the word "first", but seriously, it's the name of the game. What's confusing to person A isn't to person B; a line is being drawn in the sand.

    He was the correct answer. We're not deleting every question that confuses people as if we did, there would be none left.
