Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Rachel Green from "Friends" was a cheerleader at Lincoln High School. In one episode, she says what position she was, stuntwise. What was she?

Answer: Flyer

(From "The One With Ross's Sandwich")

Rachel: "So Pheebs, what is the book about?"

Phoebe: "I thought you said you read it in high school."

Rachel: "Well yeah, but then I remembered I started it and there was this pep rally and I was, I was on top of the pyramid but anyway-umm, what is this book about?"

In this scene, Rachel and Phoebe were at their book class and Rachel said she was on the top of the pyramid. If you are on top of the pyramid, you must be a flyer.

A liberty is the simplest stunt done with the flyer on one leg, because it's easier to balance and it doesn't require a lot of flexibility.

The movie is about a new girl trying to fit in with the popular girls called "The Plastics." Although "The Plastics" were mean and popular, none of them were cheerleaders.

Answer: Base

Patton's parents were sitting in the gym getting ready to watch the cheer routine, and they discussed his stunting.
