Radio Ga Ga Trivia Quiz

Answer: Dik-dik

A dik-dik is a small antelope that lives in the bush of East Africa. It makes a noise, when scared, that sounds like "dik-dik", thus its name. The dik-dik is so small, it is not only hunted by lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and wild dogs, but also by caracals, monitor lizards, pythons, and eagles. An aye-aye is a small type of lemur.

A tse-tse is a type of fly, which can also be called a tik-tik.

Answer: bonbons

Bonbons are little pieces of candy, usually chocolate. The word "bon" is French for "good". Bonbons were originally sugar-coated almonds, but now "bonbon" means anything that is small, has a filling, usually creamy, and has a sweet outer coating, usually chocolate.

Would that make "Skittles" little bonbons?

Answer: Zsa Zsa Gabor

Zsa Zsa Gabor was in "Moulin Rouge" in 1952. She has been married nine times, seven of those ending in divorce, and another being annulled. In 1989, she was accused of slapping a police officer, Paul Kramer. The fiasco became known around the world, and she was sentenced to jail for 72 hours.

Answer: Rin Tin Tin

Rin Tin Tin was first used when a wolf that was far too disobedient needed to be replaced for the 1922 film "The Man From Hell's River". Although Rin Tin Tin did not look like a wolf, he played a wolf several times in his career. He was not the main star until in 1923, however, in "Where the North Begins". On radio, Rin Tin Tin, and Rin Tin Tin, Jr. voiced for a 15 minute radio show, "The Wonder Dog", which was renamed "Rin Tin Tin" shortly after it began.

It ended in 1933. The series continued again in late 1933, and ended in 1934.

It was revived for a year's period in 1955. Lee Duncan also had a dog, in the same bloodline as the original Rin Tin Tin, named Hey You. He was much lighter in color, but he had the same mannerisms and stances as the original.

In 2009, the tenth Rin Tin Tin, still from the same bloodline as the original, still made appearances to promote responsible pet ownership. Hopefully, this will continue for years to come.

Answer: Mojo Jojo
