Trivia Question - Need Help - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Lsh1482PA · 04-17-2003, 09:26 AM

A local radio station runs a "five-question quiz" every week day morning. If all five questions are not answered correctly, the pot
increases $5/day until all questions are answered correctly. The
pot starts at $100 and currently is up to $670. There is one
question that has been troublesome and I hope you can help, here it is:

Who or what is featured on the number one selling poster of all time in the U.S.?

Here are some of the answers given that were wrong; Farrah Fawcett, Marilyn Monroe, smiley face, Uncle Sam - I Want You, Twin Towers, Say NO to Drugs, Poker Dogs, etc. Here are some comments the DJ made: "Boy, you guys are going to kick yourself when you hear the answer" and "When you hear the answer you're not going to believe me, but it's true". Here are some hints that were given: It fits the "Who" and "What" of the question and it is from the early 80's.

I thought it may be from a sitcom.

Here are a couple guesses:

Duran Duran
The A-Team

My guesses are one of these four;

Return Of The Jedi
The Empire Strikes Back
E T
Raiders Of The Lost Ark

How about The Dukes Of Hazzard? Fits your description pretty well!

My guess would be E.T. He was very popular at that time. We went to see the movie 3 times.

It's got to be E.T. He was everywhere in the early 80's.

yep and he would be considered a who and a what.

Well, here's some suggestions:

The I (heart) NYC phrase. John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever, the Beegees, Kurt Cobain, Britney Spears, JFK. he says who or what appears on the most popular poster- how about "words".
