UM Trivia Questions - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

crystaldawn · 09-17-2006, 04:57 PM

I thought it would be fun for us hard core fans to test how well we know UM so I thought we could all post some trivia questions and see if anyone here knows them. A few suggestions. Only post the question and not the answer on the initial post so everyone will get a chance and see if they can guess it. Then after some guesses are made, if the answer is still in question, then the true answer can be revealed. Another suggestion is to make sure when you ask a question that you know the answer so you can verify if someone gets it right. I'll start if off:

What else did Matthew Chase's roommate ask him to pick up when he left to deposit his check in the ATM?

A pack of cigarettes and a Playboy? Seriously, I don't know. What I DO know is that this is a great idea for a game.

No but good guess. I'll see if anyone else wants to guess the answer before I say. Meantime cricci I'm sure you can think of some good trivia questions so give it a shot.

I believe it was cat food. Cool idea for a thread, I'll have to think hard and come up with some questions.

Good job wiseguy!

Yes please do think of some.

Okay another one but this isn't too tough.

What was missing from Perman Gilbert's body that the killer may have taken, possibly as a momento of the crime?

kadrmas15 · 09-17-2006, 10:04 PM

His wallet containing the symbol of the masons and his masonic belt buckle I believe.

kadrmas15 · 09-17-2006, 10:09 PM

Here is one, kind of an easy one: How much did John Mooney pay Elmo Florence to kill T.K. Hardy?

I remember it wasn't much, I believe it was $100. Did Elmo ever serve time for that btw? I remember Mooney was caught but escaped.

Here's a question: What television show did Michael Scott Martin claim he and his neighbor were watching during the time the gas station was being held up? (p.s. I wonder if that was ever investigated. They could have asked him questions about the episode, that might have been enough to clear him. It wasn't discussed in the segment.)

Was it Battlestar Galactica?

This one's easy...

What were the only things missing from Stanley Gryziec's home after he was killed?

justins5256 · 09-18-2006, 02:31 PM

What psedonym was Ed Walters given in the first report about his photographs of the UFOs over Gulf Breeze?

LOL

Liar??

Good job Kardmas about the Masonic belt buckle.

HyeTev I believe the only thing missing was a couple of beers from Gryziec's home....right??

HyeTev · 09-18-2006, 04:05 PM

Right, just a couple of beers. Weird one indeed. Who really knows why except perhaps all that ransacking the assailants did caused them to have a huge thirst.

Hard to know anything about this case since important evidence seems to have vanished...

Well according to the UM segment John Mooney paid Elmo Florence only $125 dollars to kill T.K. Hardy. Also to answer your other question Wiseguy yes Elmo Florence and John Mooney were both sentenced to life in maximum security prisons in Georgia. Florence is still in prison all these years later and never escaped. To this day he is in a maximum security prison and will be 75 years old next month. John Mooney was also sentenced to life in a maximum security prison but after only 3 months in a maximum prison he was transferred to a minimum security prison where as you mentioned about a year and 3 months after he was transferred there he escaped. Mooney I believe was re captured in 1989 after being profiled on UM. Mooney was taken back to Georgia where he remains in prison and he is not in a maximum security prison even now but is in a medium security prison. Mooney is now 58 years old. By the way Mooney and Florence are both parole eligible but have been turned down many times. Mooney I believe was last denied parole in 2002. Also it interesting to note that the same prison Mooney escaped from in March of 1980 the minimum security Wayne Correctional Institution was the same prison that William Jordan would escape from in August of 1984.
