US History Trivia: What constitutional amendment deals with the quartering of troops in houses?

The U.S. Constitution is replete with amendments - 27 to be exact.  Some deal with issues that remain prevalent and controversial today.  Others, however, haven't been touched since they were first ratified.  So, off of Pocket Trivia: US History - What constitutional amendment deals with the quartering of troops in houses?  Is it the 3rd, 6th, 9th or 11th?

US Presidents Trivia: Which of these terrorist attacks did not occur during Bill Clinton's Presidency?

This will hopefully be a very big week for Pocket Protector Games, as we are hoping that our next trivia game, Movies Trivia, will be available by the end of the week - and Music Trivia shouldn't be far behind!  As you can imagine, we are very excited about all of the new offerings we are hoping to bring to your shortly!

Anyway, as for today's question.  Terrorism has seen a dramatic rise in the past twenty of so years, particularly terrorism aimed at the United States.  Bill Clinton's Presidency saw some very significant terrorist attacks, both on American soil and abroad.  So, off of Pocket Trivia:  US Presidents - Which of these terrorist attacks did not occur during Bill Clinton's administration?  Is it the Oklahoma City Bombing, the World Trade Center Bombing, the Embassy bombings in Tanzania & Kenya or the Beirut Marine Barracks Bombings?

80s Trivia: What was 'Black Monday'?

Most of Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia deals with Pop Culture questions - things like music, movies and TV.  That being said, sometimes we do get into the hard news portion of this decade - and there was certainly no shortage of that.  So, here is today's question:  What was Black Monday?  Was it a massive firing at the Security & Exchange Commission, a Supreme Court Ruling, FEC Regulation or a crash of the Stock Market?

US History Trivia: Where was Martin Luther King assassinated?

It goes without saying that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, civil rights leader of all time.  He truly spoke for an entire people that had been oppressed for centuries and helped make America a better place through his work.  Like many of the leaders during the turbulent 60s, Dr. King was gunned down by an assassin before his life's work could approach completion.  From Pocket Trivia: US History:  Where was Martin Luther King Assassinated?  Was it Montgomery, Selma, Memphis or Dallas?

US Presidents Trivia: What President gave the longest inaugural address?

Presidents are notorious for being long-winded.  It's likely an occupational hazard...but then again, who can really blame them?  If you were the leader of the free world, wouldn't you have a hard-time shutting up, knowing that the entire world was hanging on your every word?

That being said, some President's really go on for far too long.  And that's one heck of a way to make an impression on the public when you are first sworn into office!  So, off of Pocket Trivia:  US Presidents -  What President gave the longest inaugural address?   Was it William Henry Harrison, Bill Clinton, James Garfield or Zachary Taylor?

80s Trivia: Where did the ponies on 'My Little Pony' live?

I'm going to make a brave, if not slightly painful admission here:  As a young lad (say 5 or 6), I loved My Little Ponies.  There, I said it.  I loved that cartoon and begged my parents to let me get one of the figures, which they eventually did...for the life of me, I can't remember its name!  Anyway, My Little Ponies was a staple of the 80s - between the cartoons, movies and toys, they were quite ubiquitous for some time, even making a comeback in the 00s.  So, off of Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia - Where did the ponies on My Little Pony live?  Candy Valley, Sweet Valley, Dream Valley or Hope Valley?

US History Trivia: What is the name of the famed "Son of Sam" killer?

United States history, particularly in the past forty years, is rife with serial killers.  For those of you who lived in New York during the late 1970s, this name likely sounds familiar: the Son of Sam.  The Son of Sam killed six and wounded many others over the course of a roughly one year period in New York city.  Those he killed tended to be young and dark-haired.  The Son of Sam had the entire city of edge until his eventual capture in August 1977.  On the day he was arrested, the entire city only had one question in mind - who was the Son of Sam?  That is today's question, off of Pocket Games: US History.  Is the correct answer David Berkowitz, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy or Jeffrey Dahmer?

US Presidents Trivia: Which of these Presidents was not assassinated - McKinley, Kennedy, Garfield or Harding?

One of the questions we deal with the most at Pocket Protector Games is assassinations, and this topic is no exception.  Four Presidents in American history have been assassinated, and another four have died in office of natural causes.  All four of the men in this next question did die in office - but only three were assassinated.  So, off of Pocket Trivia: US Presidents - Which of these Presidents was not assassinated?  McKinley, Kennedy, Garfield or Harding?

80s Trivia: Which of these characters was not on Fraggle Rock?

Fraggle Rock was, bar none, my favorite all time 80s TV show.  It was hysterical, adorable and provided grown-up lessons in a language that kids could understand and adults could appreciate.  To those of us who loved the show, its cast of characters is legendary.  So, here is today's question, off of Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia -  Which of these characters is not from Fraggle Rock?  Is it The Trash Heap, Boober, Gonzo or Sprocket?

US Presidents Trivia: Which President once got stuck in a White House bathtub?

Presidents, like the rest of us, are human.  They trip (Ford), have affairs (Clinton and another half of the Presidents), and are very, very overweight.  One President's weight, however, reached legendary proportions - he was so fat that he actually once got stuck in a bathtub.  So, off of Pocket Trivia:  US Presidents - What President once got stuck in a White House bathtub?  Was it Truman, Hayes, Taft or Franklin Roosevelt?

80s Trivia: What movie had this famous line - "Why don't you make like a tree, and get out of here?"

I cannot think of a preamble to this quote, one of the best of any 80s movie, so let's just go for it today.  From Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia, what movie features this gem:  "Why don't you make like a tree, and get out of here?"  Is it Cocoon, Back to The Future, The Goonies or Spies Like Us?

US History Trivia: Who was Attorney General when the partially nude "Spirit of Justice" statue was covered with curtains?

The "Spirit of Justice" statue is a magnificent sculpture that stands in the Department of Justice Building in Washington, D.C.  It is the female counterpart to the male "Majesty of Law" statue that sits in the same location. Though beautiful, the statue probably would be unknown to 99.9% of the American public if not for its clothing (or lack thereof) - the statue is partially nude.

During one of these Attorney General's tenure, the statue was covered so that its partially nude form was not revealed to visitors or during press conferences.  Off of Pocket Trivia:  US History:  Who was Attorney General when the partially nude "Spirit of Justice" statue was covered with curtains?  Was it Alberto Gonzales, John Ashcroft, Edwin Meese or Robert Bork?

US Presidents Trivia: Who was Gerald Ford's Vice President?

Gerald Ford was the first and only President to ever become President after the resignation of the previous Chief Executive.  He is also the first President to never actually be elected President or Vice President (he was appointed Vice President by the Senate after the previous VP's resignation under scandal, then ascended to the Presidency after Nixon resigned).  As such, a Vice President was never elected in Ford's term - however, one was appointed by the Senate.  So, off of Pocket Trivia: US Presidents - Who was Gerald Ford's Vice President?  Was it Walter Mondale, Spiro Agnew, Donald Rumsfeld or Nelson Rockefeller?

80s Trivia: Who killed John Lennon?

We frequently deal with questions related to Presidential assassination attempts, or actual assassinations.  However, tragically, every now and then we venture into the same area, but for music.  As most of you are probably aware, John Lennon was killed by a crazed fan on December 8, 1980, one of the worst days in music history.  Off of Pocket Trivia: 80s Trivia - What was the name of the man that killed John Lennon?  Was it John Hinckley, Mark David Chapman, David Berkowitz or Phil Rudd?
