Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is Tony's nickname?

Answer: Tony Baloney

Tony won't eat anything but peanut butter and baloney sandwiches for lunch, so kids call him Tony Baloney.
2. Why did Tony get in trouble on the first day of school?

Answer: He got his foot stuck in the toilet.

Tony got his foot stuck when he slipped while jumping rope on top of the toilet as it was being flushed by Mo.
3. What trouble does Tony cause when he brings Meatball to school on the first day of Pet Week?

Answer: Meatball landed in the aquarium, getting water all over the classroom.

Meatball, Tony's dog, leaped into the air and flipped onto the trampoline. Unfortunately, he missed Tony's arms and landed in the aquarium. Maybe this disaster could have been averted if both Meatball and Tony hadn't been blindfolded.
4. What prank do Tony and Mo pull when they're emptying the trash bins?

Answer: Tony makes 25 photocopies of his rear end.

Tony wanted 25 copies so he could autograph them and pass them out when he becomes famous.
5. What does Tony dress up as for Halloween?

Answer: Bear

Tony's mom doesn't want to pay the money to rent a bear costume, but Tony kicks in part of his allowance.
6. What prank does Tony pull at the KC Chiefs game?

Answer: He steals the ball and runs down the field for a 'touchdown.'

At the last minute, Mo and Anna decide to help Tony be diverting the security guard's attention so Tony can slip onto the field.
7. Why does Tony get invited to appear on "David Letterman"?

Answer: He ran for a touchdown at the Chiefs game while dressed as a bear.

"The David Letterman Show" inspired Tony to be a bear for Halloween in the first place. On one show a man dressed up as a bear and hailed cabs, so Tony figured a bear running for a touchdown would definitely get on the show!
8. What's one thing that did NOT happen to Tony and his friends when they landed in New York?

Answer: Anna lost her mom's cell phone.

Even though Anna did NOT lose the cell phone, it didn't do them much good because whenever they tried to call Mr. Gore it went straight to voice mail.
9. How did Tony and his friends meet Harley Davidsun?

Answer: They knocked over an entire row of parked motorcycles belonging to the Hell's Angels.

It was a scary few moments before the kids realized Mr. Davidsun looked mean and scary but was actually very kind and understanding. Must be part of being a teacher!
10. What do Tony, Mr. Gore and David Letterman do together on the "Late Night" show?

Answer: They each get a tattoo.

Tony had his parents fax their permission for him to get his tattoo. Those are very understanding parents!
