Answer: Ty-D-Bol

This very old commercial always made me laugh when I imagined where the little man in the boat ended up after being flushed away! Actor Dan Resin once portrayed the Ty-D-Bol man.

Answer: Napoleon Bonaparte

I'm not too sure we'll be served with Napoleon Brandy in this boot camp or Chicken Marengo, named after a Napoleonic victory in June 1800.

Answer: Briana Scurry

The U.S. women won the Gold Medal, and true to her word, Briana Scurry ran naked down an Athens, GA street (in the middle of the night, of course!). I was lucky enough to be a volunteer for the soccer semi-final and final games, held at the University of Georgia's Sanford Stadium.

It was an amazing experience. Brandi Chastain was a defender on that team, and is better remembered for her winning penalty kick at the 1999 Women's World Cup where she ripped off her jersey and dropped to the ground in joy. Hope Solo was the U.S. Women's number one goalkeeper in 2012. Mia Hamm--well, unless you've been living in a cave--I suspect you've heard of her. By 2012, she had scored more international goals in her career than any other player at the time, male or female, with 158.
