Animal House Trivia Questions & Answers

Answer: Peter Riegert (Boon)

Riegert played a police lieutenant trying to catch Carrey.

Answer: Otter

The golf balls that Boon drove ended up in the cafeteria soup and the dean's office. When Otter got the golf club, the first ball hit the horse's rear end and made it angry, the second hit Neidermeyer's helmet. "I think I need to work on my game," Boon observed. Meanwhile, Niedermeyer was screaming as his horse dragged him along. One of the funniest scenes!

Answer: Taken liberties with a few female party guests

Although he admits this transgression, he asks the court to consider the positive aspects of Delta House.

Answer: Vernon Wormer

Actually, John Vernon is the actor's REAL name.

Answer: Johnny Quest

Who knew?! He was 17 at the time.

Answer: Katy

"Is he bigger than me?" said Boon. Katy and Boon were outside Delta house, and Boon was being goofy while Katy was trying to talk to him seriously.

Answer: Clorette

Actually, I don't know if her name is ever mentioned in the movie, other than the closing credits.

Answer: Otter

They had just walked into an all-black club. "Boon -- we're the only white people here," Pinto whispered.

Answer: D-Day

Another classic scene from the movie: D-Day comes crashing up the stairwell on his motorcycle, nearly taking out numerous people along the way, and then proceeds to tap the Lone Ranger theme on his throat as Larry Kroger looks on in wide-eyed amusement.

Answer: eat me

Cake...eat me....makes sense. Deathmobile is written on the vehicle that emerges from under the cake. The Delta's greek letters (but not "Delta House") may be on the cake, I don't recall.

Answer: Boon

A gigantic black man had come up and asked gruffly, "Do you mind if we dance with your dates?"

Answer: Mr. Jennings

Played by one of the few established actors (at the time, anyway) who appeared in the movie. I'm not mentioning names. You'll find out who it is later on in the quiz.

Answer: Hits a girl on the butt

Hitting the golf balls at the ROTC was based on an incident that Harold Ramis (who co-wrote the film) did while he was in college.

Answer: Chip Diller

In the wild Delta house, pledges were initiated into the fraternity by being assigned a funny name, having beer poured on their head and drunkenly singing "Louie Louie". In Omega house, the pledges were hit on the butt by a paddle-wielding Niedermeyer and had to say "Thank you sir may I have another!" after being smacked. This line, probably one of the most famous and frequently repeated lines of this movie, was uttered by a then-unknown Kevin Bacon.

Answer: Otis Day and the Knights

That's Knights with a 'K'. If you answered 'The Archies', shame on you!

Answer: cucumber

He says, "mine is bigger." Nice pickup line, I'll have to remember that one! Otter goes on, "You know vegetables are really sensuous don't you think?" She corrects him, "No vegetables are sensual, people are sensuous"

Answer: Hoover

After Delta's probation hearing -- which was very unfair because Wormer let Niedermeyer go on and on while Hoover hardly got a chance to speak at all -- all the stuff got taken out of the Delta house.

Answer: Shout

As a result of the exposure it got in 'Animal House', this song became a favorite at wedding receptions for years to come!

Answer: The Dexter Lake Club

Remember the 'Road Trip'? Well, here's a few more 'Road Trip' questions for you...

Answer: Bluto

A few of them were searching the dumpster when Bluto emerges from beneath the pile with the sheet in his hand. Too bad it was planted by Neidermeyer and company.

Answer: Emily Dickinson College

Awww, c'mon! You didn't answer Angie Dickinson College, did you? Jeez!

Answer: Lloyd Williams

He also does "Shama Lama Ding Dong" in the movie. The Isley's DID record their own version of "Shout". Otis' band is just put together for this movie, mostly by Robert Cray, who is playing bass guitar in the movie.

Answer: Frank Lymon

He introduces himself as Frank Lymon from Amherst College.

Answer: Kevin Bacon

Nice film debut as a fraternity pledge getting swatted, on his hands and knees, in his underwear. Guess you can only go UP from there!
