Trivia by number
« on: February 06, 2008, 02:57:58 PM » |

1. Guess the significance of a number. Subject matter can be anything, but should be based on common knowledge. Nothing too esoteric.
2. Refrain from using Google/Wikipedia.
3. Sports records don't have to all-time best. They can be records that have stood for many years but have recently been broken.
4. Some numbers may have multiple correct answers so even if your response isn't what the submitter of the clue intended, it could still be correct.
5. If you answer correctly, post the next clue.
Let's start with a can of corn:
755
