    Ok Ill play...

    Prostitutes make far less today than 100+ years ago due to most women now giving away sex for free. Basically the moral decay of women has led to prostitutes making less.

    Over 18.7 million brackets were entered in ESPN Tournament Challenge.

    Only 18 picked all 16 Sweet 16 teams correctly.

    I believe they also never played In the Light, a fucking great song, in concert due to the complexity of the synth and the difficulty of replicating it live.

    I'll play, too...

    Between 1300 and 1400, real wages in Europe rose by about the same percentage as the population declined due to the repeated outbreaks of the Black Death.

    P.S. This graphic only shows some outbreaks from the initial spread of the disease there. Each successive generation for the next 100 years or so also got snapped by outbreaks, as they had no immunity to it.

    That's also the only century in which the population of the planet is known to have declined. The labor shortage is considered a factor in the decline of feudalism.

    Please refrain from referring to the medieval bubonic plague epidemic in Europe as the "Black Death". That's racist.

    If you played all of the Beatles singles and albums that came out between 1962 and 1970 back to back, it would only last for 10 hours and 33 minutes.

    Can I play too?

    Vending machines:

    37 people were killed trying to get a snack from a vending machine from 1978 to 1995. That's an average of 2.18 deaths a year, making this cause of death WAY more likely than shark attacks. (or terrorists)

    Fairbanks, Alaska is one of the coldest places in the United States.

    On January 29, 2012, it more than 50 degrees below zero there, and there was a 130+ degree temperature difference between Fairbanks and another spot in the United States -- Honolulu, Hawaii.

    However, also in the 2010s (I forget the date and don't feel like looking it up), a winter day in Los Angeles was actually colder at the same point in time than it was in Fairbanks.

    Liverpool FC were not the first team to win the League Title at their home ground of Anfield.

    It was Everton FC, who won it in 1890, as Anfield was originally EFC's ground before they moved to a new ground less than 1 mile away, which they named Goodison Park.

    Liverpool FC were then formed in 1892 and moved into Everton's old ground of Anfield.


    Beatles related fact.

    The Cavern Club in Liverpool is synonymous with The Beatles which attracts many thousands of tourists each year. But most have no idea they're standing in a replica shell as the original was demolished in the 70's due to it not being structurally safe.


    One for dumb Americans

    Humans are a product of evolution.
