Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This Auburn University, Alabama, football coach of the 1980's sent many players to the NFL. Which Dye was he?

Answer: Pat

Dye had a career coaching record of 153-62-5 during his years at Auburn. His best seasons were in the mid 80's, when he gave Bo Jackson to the world. I guess "Bo knows" that too.

2. Many people dye their hair for various reasons. Some people wish to get rid of gray hair, others to be blondes, but what color belongs to a group of people that almost never dye their hair?

Answer: Red

Famous gingers include Thomas Jefferson and Oakland Raider Quarterback Carson Palmer.

3. One person who did dye her hair red was this blond comedienne who starred on a groundbreaking comedy of the 1950's with her husband Desi Arnaz. Who was she?

Answer: Lucille Ball

"I Love Lucy" is considered one of the groundbreaking and trendsetting shows in TV history. I think it is also ironic that she dyed her hair for a black and white TV show.

4. What do they call the special kind of dyeing to make psychedelic T-shirts?

Answer: Tie

Made popular with the counterculture of the 1960's, tie-dying is still popular at summer camps and concert goers. Makes for some cool designs dude!

5. What word doesn't rhyme with Dye?

Answer: Neigh

Whoa horsey! Neigh is pronounced "nay" and is the sound produced by a horse, like whinny.

6. People with red hair don't react as well to anesthesia and are more sensitive to pain. Dying his or her hair to blond or brunette would change that.

Answer: False

You can't change the person's genetics no matter what color you change your hair to - blond, blue or otherwise.

According to an article from the "New York Times.com": "Researchers believe redheads are more sensitive to pain because of a mutation in a gene that affects hair color. In people with brown, black and blond hair, the gene, for the melanocortin-1 receptor, produces melanin. But a mutation in the MC1R gene results in the production of a substance called pheomelanin that results in red hair and fair skin."

7. What is the slang term for changing the color of your hair? A dye _____

Answer: Job

Admit it, you can usually tell a bad one when you see one.

8. Can you name the long time outfielder for the Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Royals, Oakland Athletics and Chicago White Sox named Dye?

Answer: Jermaine

Dye had a strong right arm and grew into a fine power hitter. He finished with 325 career home runs in 14 seasons in the big leagues, but hit over 1/2 of them in the last 5 years (164). In 1999, he threw out 17 runners from Right Field.

9. What word below is a homophone that is an order you might give someone who needs to change their hair color?

Answer: Diet!

A homophone is a word that sounds the same but are different in spelling and meaning.

10. One fun one especially if you're a linkster (golfer). What golf course design legend has the name Dye?

Answer: Pete

Pete Dye courses were the most sought after for a long time. Dye designed over 140 courses around the U.S. Pete gave us Crooked Stick, Harbourtown (Hilton Head Island), PGA West, and many other courses used by the PGA Tour.
