Useless Trivia- I love it!
Here’s some. If you have any of your own, add it! hasta rastas
In Fairbanks, Alaska it is illegal for a moose to walk on the side walk. This dates back to the early days if the town when the owner of the bar had a pet moose that he used to get drunk. The moose would then stumble around the town drunk. The only way the law makers could prevent this from happining was to create the law so the moose could not cross the sidewalk and get into the bar.
Now, give us some trivia you didn’t just pull off another page. We have copyright issues to think about, you know.
Copying and pasting small segments is fine, but you have to mention the source.
Are you serious, Coldfire? Kind of hard to imagine any trivia that isn’t on the 'net somewhere these days. And the trivia SeeShineBlue posted is also on this page.
True, but there’s a difference between telling a widely spread story in your own words, and copying it word for word. In the latter case, we do prefer a source in the post.
Sicnce you all want to know where I got this…I did not get this from the link Donkeyoatey provided.
In fact, I got it from a sourse you wouldn’t think of, which is MTV.com. So there you have it…This where i got this triva from.
Yes, I do know that you would’nt think you can someting like that from MTV, but i did…
Thanks Coldfire.
Here’s a little trivia. I’ve noticed your location (to the left, under the username) for quite some time now, and just assumed it was Dutch humor I didn’t get. So I finally got around to doing a Google search for it. :smack: :smack: :smack: :smack:
From this page (and I’m sure many others) :

Well, since Spoz always says I’m good for the useless trivia, it’s no wonder that this thread somehow drew me in. 
Here’s my bit of useless trivia:
Karate was invented in India.

Trivia has been banned in the isolated mountain village of Hunew, Swiss Alps for the last ten years. The locals liked to test each other’s general knowledge (during the winter, when TV transmission went on the blink) by painting questions on the sides of the goats who run at will throughout the village streets (after a proclamation by Grand-Duke Gormless the IV in 1807). The object of the exercise was to answer the question on the goat you caught in the great “Goat Scramble” festival.
Unfortunately, this would routinely lead to charges of goat-tampering which proved so much of a burden to the judges that they abolished the whole event.
The Hunewians play bingo, now.
