Welcome to the YellowBelly Tuesday Trivia Blog. For the duration of downtime during the COVID Quarantine, we are moving the quiz online.  The format is different. Here is how it works.  Each Tuesday, we will post 26 questions. The answer to each question begins with a letter from A through Z, and no letter is used more than once. So if the answer is The Beatles , there will be no more correct answers that begin with B. If the answer is a person, we are looking for the surname .  The quiz will start at 7pm , and you will have until 8:30pm to email your answers to YellowBellyTrivia@gmail.com . Feel free to work individually or as part of a team. We have tried to make the answers hard to Google, but we cannot stop you from doing that.  We will post the names of the top three on the St. John's Trivia Facebook page, and the top team will win a $25 gift prize courtesy of YellowBelly, to be redeemed when all this stuff settles down. Plus each week we will have s...

The YellowBelly A to Z Trivia Quiz got picked up for another week, for Season 3, Episode 2 . With 30 teams last week, we feel we can keep this going until Dr. Fitz tells us to give it up. Each answer begins with a different letter of the alphabet. So, once a letter is gone, there's no turning back. Unless you made a mistake. Then you should turn back. Email your answers to YellowBellyTrivia@gmail.com by 8:30pm NDT on January 18, 2022. We had a few tips last week, so thanks for that. Tip jar remains...OPEN! Feel free to e-transfer to the same email above if you see fit. Now, on with the show. Let's start off with three music montages hosted on Soundcloud - songs may play out of order, so pay attention to that: 1. Music 1 The six songs in this montage share a very simple common bond . Name it. 2. Music 2 There are six clips in this montage. The name of the song is played in many of them, so that's not the connection - we are looking for a two-word quirk they all shar...
