Alan Rock's Trivia Teasers

Q: Who discovered corn in Cuba?

A: On November 5, 1492 Christopher Columbus. We might point out that at the time he was not listening to this program.

Q: The King of the Cowboys was born on November 5, 1912. Who was he?

A: Roy Rogers. I think he was King of the Cowboys because he was always so spiffy. Roy'd get his hat blocked, press his pants, shine his boots, and give Trigger a bath just to go catch rustler. It made the rustler feel real dirty and remorseful.

Q: On November 5, 1946, the first basteball player in history to shatter a glass backboard during an NBA game; who was he? (clue: he later starred as TV's "Rifleman").

A: Chuck Connors.
