Fun and Educational Trivia Quiz for February 27


Brain Chain consists of well over 3,000 questions and answers in eight different categories. Remember, Oddball questions require players to determine what three items have in common and pick out the "Oddball" -- much like the old Electric Company television show game -- except more challenging, and often, funnier!

For those of you who have not yet played Brain Chain, review some of our other posts to get a feel for the Oddball trivia question format.

Good luck and good knowledge!
