The 38th Annual Kings X Trivia Tournament was held April 25 at Magoo’s Restaurant in Pleasant Hill. The team named It’s Neither Ceased Nor Salmon captained by John Prokofiev won a hotly contested battle. John’s reward is he gets to do the questions next year. The moderator for the tournament was Darrell Garrison, a longtime Trivia stalwart, who unsurprisingly, did a fabulous job of offering interesting, but challenging questions to the assembled experts. He has been kind enough to share a few of them with you, dear reader.

2. Now age 97, she sang at halftime in Super Bowl IV and VI. Who was she?
3. She just recorded a top selling British recording of her hits at her 100th birthday. She received one of the highest honors that Britain grants. Who is she?
4. Abraham Lincoln’s son, Robert Todd, was once saved from a serious accident on a train by what man?
