Thanks @Spitfisher ! Appreciate the effort. Cool idea

No problem, the idea came to me a few years ago where I was in charge of an office Super Bowl pool, in years past it was the same bunch of guys throwing in 20 bucks, well times had change and there were more women than guys. So I needed something that everyone could do and understand. because our team (s) were out if it, no one seemed really interested. So I came up with an idea of doing a questionnaire like. Within 5 seconds and not going over how long in seconds will the national anthem be? What colored jerseys will win the coin toss? Dark or light? What kind of commercial is shown after the kick off? Beer, service, technology, auto or neither. The very first play from scrimmage will be a pass or run. Anyway it turned out very popular and the money pool almost doubled. One of the admin women won with no real knowledge of football.
