I don’t care.

Boru

I am sure you don't, but you still answered my obscure questions.

You’ve NEVER asked an obscure question. 

So, any guesses about my two unanswered questions?

lol, simply because I don’t know the answer doesn’t mean the question is obscure. It took me less than a minute to look it up. I googled ‘Joe Theismann broken leg’ and got something like half a million hits. How can that be ‘obscure’?

The answers (what’s left of them):

*****

The last time Pele was seen playing an international football (soccer) match, who was the goalkeeper? (Hint: You don’t have to know anything about football to get this right.)

The last time Pele was seen in an international match was in the 1981 film ‘Victory’ and the goalkeeper was...Sylvester Stallone.

*****

What do the following have in common:

-Windows in 2015
-Eurovision since 2016
-‘Red Dwarf’ in 2012
-iPhones

They all skip the the number 9 - there is no ‘Windows 9’, you can’t give a contestant in the Eurovision Song Contest 9 points, ‘Red Dwarf’ has no series 9, and there is no iPhone 9.

*****

Tip o’ the hat to arewethereyet and Brian37 for the ones they got right.
