Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. I'm on my way to the 'Piggly Wiggly' down the street. I am most likely where?

Answer: The South

'Piggly Wiggly' grocery stores are best known for being the locale of many Elvis sightings. There are also Piggly Wigglys in states further north but the majority are spread over the area bounded by Oklahoma, Missouri, West Virginia and Florida.

2. 'ACME' stores are most likely to be found where?

Answer: East Coast

Yes, 'ACME' brand products do exist but I don't believe they make exploding booby-traps.

3. Mmm...this 'Hood' brand milk is delicious. Where might I most likely buy it?

Answer: New England

Phish wrote a song about the Hood company. And if you watch the Bruins, the Red Sox or the Celtics play, you've probably seen the banner ads that simply say 'HOOD'.

4. 'Double Cola' & 'Ski' might be the best soft drinks in the world. That's what I think because I live where?

Answer: Evansville, IN

Made in Tennessee, 'Ski' & 'Double Cola' seem to have a very exclusive market in southern Indiana.

5. I also like 'Grippo's' brand potato chips. They are made where?

Answer: Cincinnati, OH

It's a shame, but Grippo's potato chips are only available (commercially) in the Ohio Valley area.

6. It's kind of like 'Hardee's' or 'Carl's Jr.' but it's called 'Roy Rogers.' If I'm in St. Louis, which direction do I need to travel to get to one?

Answer: East

Roy Rogers restaurants started in Virginia and became a popular chain. The restaurant has been sold and resold to Hardee's, Wendy's, Boston Market and McDonalds. It's making somewhat of a revival in the eastern part of the U.S.

7. I just ordered a "cheesesteak with". Where am I?

Answer: Philadelphia, PA

When you walk into a cheesesteak joint in Philadelphia and order a "cheesesteak with" you are going to get a Philadelphia style cheesesteak made with sauteed onions and Cheez Whiz�.

8. I'm starting this company called 'Starbucks' and the first one will be here. Where am I?

Answer: Seattle, WA

Remember when Dr. Evil's new headquarters was in the Space Needle and he was informed that he is the owner of a company called Starbucks? And then he got whipped cream on his face from drinking his latte? And then he explains that "That's the way we do it in Belgium. It's called the 'Belgium dip.'?
That was funny.

9. I'm going to see the New York Mets play a home game. Where am I going?

Answer: Flushing, NY

Shea Stadium sits in Flushing, NY, about 10 miles east of Manhattan. The #7 subway line from Grand Central or Times Square will take you there.

10. I'm going skiing in Squaw Valley. What state will I be in?

Answer: California

Squaw Valley is located on the California side of Lake Tahoe. It was home to the 1960 Winter Olympics.
