Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Bell-bottomed trousers were a fashion fad in the 1970s. With what group of people are bell-bottoms thought to have originated?

Answer: Sailors

"Bell-bottom trousers, coat of Navy blue / Let him climb the riggin' like his daddy used to do." Sailors have been wearing bell-bottoms since at least the early 19th century. Bell-bottoms are easier to slip on and off, and can be used as a flotation device in an emergency by tying knots in the legs and inflating them with air; the bell-bottoms presumably hold more air than straight leg trousers.

The U.S. Navy phased out bell-bottoms for its enlisted working uniforms in 2010, but the blue dress uniforms still sport bell-bottom trousers.
