Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Chick McGee temporarily left the show in the mid 1990s.

Answer: True

Chick left the Bob and Tom show to become a co-host of his own radio show in San Diego. The gig lasted less than a year and can be commemorated with his oft-heard phrase "Hello San Diego".

Answer: His mustache

The famous 'stache has been on his upper lip since 1969!

5. Tom Griswold is a graduate of an Ivy League school.

Answer: True

Griswold graduated from Columbia University in New York, which may be why he is such an elitist. As one frequent caller says, "I didn't graduate from an Ivan League school like Tom."

6. Tom has many quirks that have multiplied over the years on air. Which of these is not one of those?

Answer: All of these are Griswold quirks

These are just three of the many and random quirks of the great Tom Griswold. He also avoids gas stations with tanker trucks or banks with a Brinks truck outside.
