You know, I would feel more in agreement with the Rolling Stones' denouncement of their being censored during the Super Bowl halftime show if they weren't knowing participants. They should have threatened to walk - during the show if need be - rather than play along and complain about it later.
No trivia last night, but I'll throw out a few questions from weeks past for fun:
William King was the only Vice President sworn into office outside of the United States. In what country did he take his oath of office?
What musical group was indirectly responsible for the development of MRI technology?
What US President played a pivotal role in forming the current rules and structure for college football? Teddy Roosevelt (Mike) - TR was enough of a rugged individualist that he saw the promise of college football, but not enough of one to accept its occasionally lethal results. He pretty much strong-armed interested parties into various changes in the game, so in a way he's to blame for the BCS.
Born Michael Gubitosi, what actor is one of the few surviving members of the Little Rascals? Robert Blake (Mike) - apologies for the weasel wording, but I'm pretty sure the host claimed that Blake was the last surviving member of the Little Rascals. I think there are a couple of aged Californians who would be surprised at that remark, based on my (admittedly brief) research.

3 is TR. 4 is Robert Blake.
If mike's wrong on TR - and I don't think he is - I'll vulch Wilson.
the MRI question: hell, Kraftwerk.
William King was the only Vice President sworn into office outside of the United States. In what country did he take his oath of office?
The Bahamas
I'll guess The Who on the musical group - only because their earshattering vocals and music were so highly touted that perhaps someone developed a technology to determine the affect of all that noise on the brain.
