oddball trivia 9/30/2025
👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽 Hey, hi, hello, and happy Tuesday! It's your main man combatdavey coming at you from seat 5B in carriage 5 of a VIA Rail train headed to Toronto from Montreal. I am getting jostled just as my edible is hitting, which is actually kind of rad.
Today is Tuesday, September 30, 2025, i.e. 9/30/25. Lower down in this post you will find sports trivia questions about 9s, 30s, 930s, and 9302. If you instead find an angry minotaur, you've scrolled too far. I hope you're not wearing red.
To make Oddball trivia more user-friendly I have recently started putting the answers in the questions posts (below the questions, natch) so that readers/players don't have to wait or fire up the ol' Google machine.
