I've definitely heard of the Isley Brothers and Randy Quaid. No idea who Yount is. But the fact that I don't know who he is is not a good reason to exclude him from the quiz.
So because you weren't alive is a good excuse to not learn anything historical? No one who takes these quizzes was alive during the years of Genghis Khan, Charlemagne, Napoleon...
Kind of a bad example. You think this guy will still be known in a couple of hundred years? If not you cant claim he has historical importance. Some people can be extremely famous in a certain time period, but not relevant and forgotten a generation later.
Saw the word drummer in the clue and automatically skipped it. I never know specific musicians in these quizzes. Then I saw the answer, reread the clue, and now I'm so ashamed. I was a fan when they first invaded the US and I missed that one???
Never knew anything about snooker until I stumbled across a video of O'Sullivan playing, and watched it for some reason. The guy is a snooker assassin. Unreal. Made me go look up the rules of the game to better understand it.
