Truly difficult Chiefs Trivia
 

Not even Ubeja will get most of these. From the backs of old football cards.

Was the 2nd leading rusher his final NCAA season before being injured. MacAurther Lane by Rain Man

Had a radio show in KC in 1971 (not Len Dawson). Jan Stenerud by Rain Man

Owned a 1928 Oldsmobile. Bobby Bell by Rain Man

Owned a cocktail lounge in KC in 1971. Otis Taylor by srvy

Enjoy's playing the clarinet. Emmitt Thomas by kcgreene

Once ate 86 pancakes, a dozen eggs, and a pound of bacon for breakfast. Ernie Ladd by George Blowfish. Also, Buck Buchanan

Most accomplished Chiefs tennis player. Johnny Robinson by Rain Man

I remember the Johnny Robinson football card with the tennis illustration on the back.

Winner!

I remember the Oldsmobile illustration as well, but can't remember whose card it was. Bobby Bell?

You have a fantastic memory.

ROFL

The flanker lounge Otis Taylor

Conrad Doblerwould have still been playing in 71

I own about 200 old AFL football cards, about 30 chiefs like,,,

Len Dawson
Abner Haynes RC in his North Texss State uni
Curtis McClinton RC
Otis Taylor
Johnny Robinson
Jim Tyler
Buck Buchanon
Curley Culp
Bobby Bell
Willie Laneir

hmmmm?

Too lazy to get my ladder, they are all in binders in a shelf.

Tons of football cards.

My baby.....mint Jim Brown rookie.

i actually appreciate ( i assume ) that you have these cards and don't have to copy and paste :thumb:

Otis Taylor is correct. Thanks for the name of the lounge. "Flanker" is a term that seems to have disappeared from the NFL lexicon, but it was frequently used as Otis Taylor's position.

Not sure which question you are attaching to Conrad Dobler, but it was not my intended answer to any of the questions.

I'm guessing here, but I feel like the clarinet guy may have Marvin Upshaw, but that's just a guess. If not, then maybe it was a running back.

Marvin Upshaw would be a good name for a jazz musician. But not in this case.

Didn't Emmitt Thomas play the Clarinet? Could swear that I read something about him getting a scholarship to play clarinet...

Wendell Hayes on the clarinet?

I keep wanting to say Curtis McClinton, but I'm pretty sure I didn't have his card.

Amazing!

I'll go with Mo Moorman on the pancakes.

I have no idea but I cant even imagine 86 pancakes is possible. The belly would swell then to squeeze eggs and bacon on top. Whoever it was must have been miserable.

I know Willie Lanier and Jim Lynch also Bobby Bell did some broadcasting on weekends on KMBC TV but I dont know about radio.

Heh, sparked an ancient memory. Recall learning to run the flanker flag in the football section of 8th grade PE. Basically, when it was too cold to go outside, we learned on the chalkboard how to read play diagrams and identify positions, then we ran the plays when we got out on the field.

my coaches never told me anything. i learned everything on the fly, pattern ROFL

Relevant that this was PE, not rec league or even school-sponsored FB itself.

Since we were in school, we were supposed to 'learn stuff.' ;)

Plus, since every kid had to take it, you had to find stuff to do for kids who could barely tie their shoes, let alone run and jump and catch.

The first true flanker in the NFL

I’m going to say Mike Adamle out of Northwestern for the rushing question. He was one hell of a player in college.

Or maybe Jesse Haynes, although I don’t remember him getting injured. Come to think of it, I really don’t really much about him besides having a bunch of rushing yards at some local Division 2 school.

First one was paul palmer!

Food thing is Ernie Ladd.
2nd leading rusher, just a guess: Ernie Ladd
1971 Radio, I'll guess Ed Podolak

Radio show question could be Hank Stram

Ernie Ladd was a running back in college????

Tim Grunhard?

I am going to give you Ernie Ladd, because he ate more pancakes even than the person I was thinking of in my question. The answer I was looking for was Buck Buchanan. I imagine it was a college fund raising thing in college.

No other winning answers have been provided yet.

I'm betting the radio show is a defensive guy since Dawson would have already been on. I'll go with Jim Lynch.

And one would expect the rusher to be Mike Garrett in that era.

Ed Podolak had the radio show. Ed Podolak had a playoff-record 350 TOTAL YARDS on 12/25/1971 against the Miami Dolphins in a over-time loss. 85 rushing, 110 receiving, and 155 in returns!!!

Jim Otis is the rushing one I bet.

The Tank for RB?

The RB was from a slightly later era. Different year card.

Woody Green?

Greg Hill

Guy put up some serious numbers at ASU.

We are going to need to know his 100m dash times.

It's funny that I've never actually seen Ubeja answer a trivia question.

It could also be Jeff Kinney.

Keep in mind they ran 100 yards in his day.


so....


State had the guns to defend itself. Leading the speed was sophomore Halfback Woody Green, a 9.5 sprinter. And then there were 14 or 15—with that many, who counts?—others listed at 9.9 or faster, including two split ends, a few flankers, the entire secondary and enough running backs to fill a couple of relay teams.

Arizona State having....

Henry Carr Olympic 200m gold/9.3 Giants
J.D.Hill 9.3 Bills
Travis Williams 9.3 Packers/Rams
Ron Brown 10.06 Olympian Rams

I want trivia to work here, it won't if I hog it up.

Mike Cloud pre college injury?

PM me the answer to the last two and I will give you credit. :D

ROFL

Was the running back Joe Delaney?

And the radio show guy was Ed Budde, I bet.

Hints:

When you hear the RBs name, a normal NFL fan would not remember them as primarily a Chief.

Radio show: Go through the people you know on the SB roster. Of those people he is one of the last people you would pick for a weekly radio show. I mean, how much does he have to say?

Marcus Allen and Gene Trosch?

Well before Marcus Allen, but post SB.

Gene who? Not an obscure player, but how much do they have to say to warrant a weekly interview?

Theotis Brown and Jerrell Wilson.

One of them is warm.

Mike Adamle and Jan Stenerud.

Jan Stenerud goes up on the board!

I would've thought his accent would've made him a less than ideal candidate, not to mention his position.

I'm just flat out guessing on the running back now. Willie Ellison?

Or John Brockington!

WARM!

No wet cake!

MacArthur Lane.

Ding!

That was truly difficult Chiefs trivia.
