Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Jimmy Fallon was born: James _______ Fallon?

Answer: Thomas

When asked this question, after an SNL show toward the beginning of season 27, Jimmy was slightly taken aback. Soon, all of the fans around him began adding,'Yeah! What is it?' Finally, Jimmy looked back at the original inquirer and said, with a smile,'It's Thomas.'
2. Where was Jimmy born?

Answer: Brooklyn

More specifically, he was born in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
3. Jimmy has a sister named Gloria, who is about one year older than him. When is her birthday?

Answer: September 22

The Fallon kids have said that one of the reasons that they are so close (I guess the word would be emotionally) is that fact that they are so close in age.
4. Jimmy attended what high school?

Answer: Saugerties High

It is the only public high school in Saugerties.
5. The year of his graduation (1992), Jimmy and 4 of his friends ran for office, calling themselves J5. Name one other 'member'.

Answer: Jerry

'I have the thinnest, straightest hair, so when I tried to do what they did, I'd look more like a 30's bartender. We graduated in '92, and we were just so proud of that year - '92, 92, 92!', we used to chant that all the time. I ran for office with four of my friends and we were called the 'J5' because it was Jimmy, Jon, Jerry, Jared and Joey. We totally marketed the whole thing- we had t-shirts that said, 'Keep '92 alive-Vote J5.' We were all the bad kids that would put the garbage cans on top of the flag pole.'
6. At 17, Jimmy won 1st prize in an impressions contest at a club (Bananas) in which New York city?

Answer: Poughkeepsie

He entered a contest where he was given about a minute to do as many impressions as possible. He won by doing PeeWee Herman.
7. At the College of St. Rose, Jimmy majored in what subject?

Answer: Computer Programming

Jimmy left 15 credits short of his degree because his classes became too hard, and he wanted to pursue his comedy career.
8. What happened to Jimmy while walking down Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA, circa mid-90s?

Answer: the cigarette incident

'I tried to smoke 'cause Paul McCartney smokes and Simon and Garfunkel smoke. So I got a pack of cigarettes and I'm like, 'I'm gonna learn to smoke, man ... I was in L.A., and I walked up and down Venice Boulevard and I'm like, 'Yeah, man,' and I'm letting it hang out of my mouth, you know? And then I got home and it stuck to my lip and I'm like ... I pulled it off and my lip ripped open.'
9. How many times did Jimmy audition for 'Saturday Night Live'?

Answer: two

Jimmy bombed his first audition, but he didn't give up. He worked hard to improve his act and got a second chance.
10. Jimmy arrived as an SNL featured player in what season?

Answer: 24

Jimmy is pretty much the same age as the show. He was hired at 23, but turned 24 just before season 24 started. At 25, season 25 (anniversary) started. At 26, season 26 started, and so on.
11. Jimmy made his first Weekend Update appearance on the episode of SNL hosted by whom?

Answer: Ben Stiller

Jimmy debuted his trademark parodies by singing Halloween Carols.
12. Which of the following has NOT been a rumored girlfriend of Jimmy's?

Answer: Kirsten Dunst

Though there was much talk and speculation after the MMA's (this was all based on stupidity), there were no actual public statements saying that the two were dating. There were idiotic statements such as 'Oh my God, are they really getting married?!' But, those don't count, because, as we all should know, the 'we're getting married' thing was a JOKE.
13. What song does Jimmy warm up the SNL audience with?

Answer: Midnight Rambler

Each cast member takes a turn at 'warming up' the audience before the show. Usually, they go out and stand on the main stage, either singing, telling jokes, or making fun of people. Jimmy is the warm-up master.
14. Which of the following 80s bands does Jimmy cover in his 80s medley?

Answer: After the Fire

15. Jimmy initially signed a _____ year contract with 'Saturday Night Live'?

Answer: 5
