    Trivia was wrong today, there wasn't a correct answer...

    Question was what team made a super bowl in its first season?

    They said the correct answer was the Tennessee Titans. This team was established in 1959, before the Super Bowl even began.

    depends how the question was worded

    they were the tennessee oilers for the 1998 season, then the titans for 1999 season and made the super bowl that year

    Hey zachary... if nothing else you're going to make a few of my chick friends feel like trivia legends for a day.

    The options offered were: 1. Tennesse Titans 2. St Louis Cardinals 3. Memphis Grizzlies and 4. Henderson Colonels (your choice and a high school football team)

    For a 10pt question about a Super Bowl winner your options were an 1. actual NFL team 2. MLB team 3. NBA team and 4. high school team. Not sure how anyone with even a slight knowledge of US sports couldn't take a decent guess here but good luck with your future trivias!! I'm sure you'll understand why we won't rule the answer "wrong"

    Classic Shari! I doubt many people realize some of the options usually are instant incorrect answers

    Not arguing and I don't wan't to get carsellered,

    but the St Louis Cardinals were also a NFL team from 1960-1987, the moved to Arizona in '88, they have never won the Super Bowl, so of course they couldn't be the correct answer.

    Titans have never won either.

    Trivia is impossible to win without the glitch that freezes the clock.

    Not really. Question doesnt say anything about FRANCHISE. Tenn Titans did make the Super Bowl the first year of their existence as the Titans. None of the other teams exist in the NFL or ever made the Super Bowl.

    Titians were already a team. They just changed their name.
