Sinatra, Frank Celebrity Trivia Questions
1. One of the stupid things that Frank Sinatra did as a young man was drop out of school. What was the highest level of education that Frank actually finished?

From Quiz Something Stupid

Answer: Middle School (US grades 6 through 8)

Frank attended only 47 days of high school before he was expelled for his rowdy behavior. Entertaining and singing had always been his passion, and he decided to pursue that dream instead of putting in four more years of study to graduate from high school. To tie it back to the song "Somethin' Stupid", here's a line that may have something to do with dropping out of school: "I know I stand in line until you think you have the time to spend an evening with me..." Could be that Frankie just got tired of all the lines he had to stand in at school!

From Quiz Something Stupid

Answer: 4F & 4 F & FOUR F

One newspaper published that Frank Sinatra was the most hated man in WWII, even more than Hitler, because of unfounded rumors that he paid to get out of doing time in the armed forces. Extensive FBI investigations into his past never uncovered any evidence of this. In fact, the FBI report showed that Frank's ear injury was well-documented and a legitimate reason for being 4-F. A line from "Something Stupid" that might apply here is: "And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true and never seemed so right before." Though many thought that Frankie's reason for not serving in the army was a lie, he always maintained that it was the truth.
