B) WHO SAID IT?
Give us the speakers of the following baseball-related quotes:
C) GENERAL BASEBALL QUESTIONS:
a) A lumberjack match -- ring surrounded by other wrestlers (usually 20) who throw the combatants back into the ring if they fall out or attempt to leave.
b) A chain match -- two opponents attached by a chain so they cannot escape one another; needless to say, the chain itself is often used as a weapon.
c) A tuxedo match -- both wrestlers begin match in full tuxedo; the first man to strip his opponent to his underwear is the winner.
As an alumni team, we've answered more questions about Eddie Gaedel than we care to remember. Eddie was the first (and only) midget to play major league baseball-- but if you needed us to tell you that, you're already in trouble.
And so, to commemorate the mighty mite, and end Gaedel Trivia forever, we ask you now to list every scrap of information you can give us about the pipsqueak. We do mean everything-- who, what, where, how tall, and all the rest. Of course, stick to pertinent info ONLY. We don't want the town he was born in, or his favorite TV show. But do give us anything and everything about his one at-bat, and the surrounding hubbub.
The "ultra-cutthroat" part comes thusly: The team that provides us with the most bits of information gets two points. The next-highest team gets zero.
That's right, there're only enough points for one team. These are unanswered points, and don't count towards your Super Bonus scores. Get cracking.
We were armed with a list of about 35-40 bits of Eddie Gaedel data, and much of it was in evidence. Son, There's A Panty On Your Head got the two-point bonus.
