Go Florida State TRIVIA QUIZzes!

Today is National Greasy Foods Day.

Today is Say "Hey" Day. There's a whole day devoted to that?

Today is St. Crispin's Day, Crispin and his brother Crispian are the patron saints of shoemakers. Why do shoemakers need two saints?

On this day in 1960, the first electronic wristwatch, the Bulova Accutron, went on sale in New York City.


On this day in 1979, a black and beige collie named Jessie was elected homecoming queen at Tarleton State University in Texas. Not pleased about this development: all the other candidates for homecoming queen :)

On this day in 1982, the sitcom "Newhart" debuted on TV. Comedian Bob Newhart played Dick Loudon, an author of how-to books and owner of the Stratford Inn. The series also starred Mary Frann, Tom Poston, Julia Duffey, and Peter Scolari.


OK, sports trivia time! With his 339th victory, Florida State's Bobby Bowden became the winningest football coach in major college history on this day in 2003. Which team did they beat 48-24 to accomplish this?

Good luck :)

I'd guess Wake Forest, but since the Deacs go undefeated just about every year that's probably wrong :)

Yup, it was Dear Old Wake Forest! Nice work, JD! It's nice that Wake could at least contribute to ACC football in some way...
