Growing up in a rural area some would say they think there is not a lot to do. But like many families in a farming community it is quite the opposite. When not doing 4-H, school extra-curricular clubs or my part-time job packing groceries, I still found time to pack my brain with tidbits of useless trivia and knowledge. In fact, like most “nerds” who like to think they know it all, I was a member of Knowledge Bowl – a high school version of Jeopardy Game Show. However, the audience would laugh when someone would get caught up in the moment and answer the poised question in the form of a question. (The host would retort with his nose in the air, the “What is?…is not necessary”.)
Anyway, this flashback came to head when doing some research for the concert. I came across some like known facts about the Farm Aid artists. Now these tidbits of Farm Aid Knowledge are your chance to get a Farm Aid bumper sticker… if you are the first one to answer all of them correctly. Send the answers via e-mail with your mailing address to me at blogger@farmaid.org. So get your Google-fingers ready!
