Every episode of Family Feud seems to have at least one question where you have to wonder if the top answer wasn’t rigged in some way as it’s completely baffling to for most of the group of 100 to all say the top answer.
“Name something that most people put in their mouths every single day”
The top answer was “Popsicle/Lollypop” as the Top Answer with 40%. The obvious answer was “Tooth Brush” and yet that was #2 but with only 20%.
Got another one!
Q: What radioactive, 164-foot Tyrannosaurus Rex made the covers of Time and Newsweek?
A: Godzilla
Most of this is accurate, except for the fact that Godzilla is not a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
He is, though, in Fred Worth’s Super Trivia Encyclopedia (with almost that exact wording–Worth says a radioactive fire-breathing 164-foot tyrannosaurus rex).
In the original set, the question was something like “According to The Kinks in Lola what did champagne taste like?”
They insist it’s “cherry cola,” which is WRONG WRONG WRONG because the original lyric was “Coca-Cola” and they had to re-record the lyric as “cherry cola” after Coke threw a fit. Nowadays the “Coca-Cola” version is the one that gets played and Coke thinks it’s awesome free advertising. That’s life for ya.
Well, regardless of who made it necessary, Trivial Pursuit is still wrong in saying the lyric is “cherry cola.” Assholes. Not that I’m still salty about it or anything.
IIRC, the UK version had “cherry cola” in it because of the BBC’s policy about name brands/product placement in songs. So it was banned by the BBC. Ray Davies re-recorded that vocal section and that’s where the “cherry cola” version comes from. “Coca Cola” is the original lyric and the one that is typically played in the US. At least that’s the lyric I sing when I think of that song.
