Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Ralphie Parker and his family lived on what street?

Answer: Cleveland Street

The film was set in Northern Indiana, but the actual filming took place in Cleveland, Ohio. The name of Ralph's street is possibly a tribute to that fact.

2. Early in the movie, Ralph's dad was griping about the fact that the Chicago White Sox traded this baseball player?

Answer: Bullfrog

Apparently his ball playing skills weren't what they were 'croaked' up to be.

3. Who did the Sox receive in the transaction?

Answer: Four-Eyed Schottenhauffen

4. What was the name of the Lone Ranger's nephew's horse?

Answer: Victor

5. In the newspaper, Ralphie's dad mentions that some clod-hopper down in Griffin, Indiana did what?

Answer: Swallowed a yo-yo

'That's real news.'

6. What department store was traditionally the 'high-water mark' of the holiday season?

Answer: Higbees

You've got to admit, that store did have one heck of a window display.

7. Ralphie wanted a Red Rider B.B. Gun. Where did he tell his mom that Flick saw some grizzly bears?

Answer: Polaski's Candy Store

Once again, the name spelling is just guess-work. Please note that I did my very best to sound it out.

8. Trying to 're-build the dike', Ralphie says he wanted this toy instead of a B.B. gun. What toy?

Answer: Tinker Toys

'You'll shoot your eye out.'

9. What was Ralphie's favorite radio program?

Answer: Little Orphan Annie

10. What did Flick say he was going to get his dad for Christmas?

Answer: The old squirting flower gag

11. At first, Ralphie's dad thought that his major award might be this?

Answer: The deed to a bowling alley

Although Ralphie's dad said a new furnace when Ralphie asked him what he thought he got him for Christmas, old man Parker thought the award at first was in fact a bowling alley. Careful - Fragile.

12. What was the last name of Ralphie's grade school teacher?

Answer: Shields

Ralphie learned the hard way that bribery by way of a large fruit basket will still only garner you a C+ when writing a theme.

13. According to Ralphie, what was his 'personal preference' when it came to tasting soap?

Answer: Lux

The name of the soap is Lifebuoy, like those things that float in the harbor? I worked at a grocery store as a kid, and I stocked every type of soap imaginable including Lifebuoy. With that being said, Ralphie mentions his preference was for Lux, but went on to describe how Palmolive tasted.

14. After gathering the 'sad remains' of his broken major award, Ralphie's dad could only muster these few words?

Answer: Not a finger!

'Not a finger' it was. Although he did call the Bumpus' dogs smelly.

15. And finally... Name the imaginary villian who headed a gang of robbers who were pestering the Parker clan?

Answer: Black Bart

'You've won this time Ralphie. But we'll be back!' 'Adios Bart, but if you do come back, you'll be pushing up daisies!'
