Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In season one, Ted met a girl named Trudy at the bar and wound up in bed with her and with a questionable fruit on his nightstand. What fruit did Ted find?

Answer: Pineapple

In this episode, aptly titled "The Pineapple Incident," Ted (Josh Radnor) drank five shots and then picked up Trudy (Danica McKeller) at the bar. It was never explained where the pineapple came from, but Trudy returned for one episode in season three.
2. Barney believes that what man is his father?

Answer: Bob Barker

When Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) was a little boy, his mother told him that Bob Barker was his father. Barney grew up believing this to be true and even appeared on "The Price is Right" game show in order to meet Barker. After Barney won a bunch of prizes, Bob told him that he was proud of him and Barney started to tear up a little.
3. For nearly two years, Robin hid parts of her past from her friends, most importantly that she was a teenage Canadian pop star. Robin had a big hit under her stage name Robin Sparkles. What was the name of her hit song?

Answer: Let's go to the Mall

Robin (Cobie Smulders) had a hit with the song "Let's go to the Mall" in the 1990's (although ironically, the video seemed to be shot in the 80's because, as Robin said, the 80's didn't come to Canada until the '90's). The video is hilarious and it seems that her friends will never let her live it down.
4. At the end of the first season, Lily left New York (and Marshall) to attend an art program in what city?

Answer: San Francisco

Lily (Alyson Hannigan) applied to an art program in San Francisco, and was accepted, without telling Marshall (Jason Segal). The date of the program conflicted with their wedding, but Lily decided that she had to at least try to fulfill her dream of being an artist, so she left Marshall behind.
5. Although it seems that Lily has always lived with Ted and Marshall, she started out the series with an apartment of her own that she hardly ever returned to. When Lily returned to her apartment after a three month absence, she was surprised to see it had been turned into what type of business?

Answer: Chinese restaurant

Lily's apartment had indeed been turned into a Chinese restaurant. But because she spent so much time at Ted and Marshall's apartment, she never got the notices that her landlord died and that she had to move out, until her building had already been taken over. The people at the Chinese restaurant did save her belongings for her and even displayed some in the restaurant.
6. After Lily and Marshall broke up, Marshall began hanging out with one of his recently dumped law school friends. They went to concerts and brunch together, but Marshall started to get a little creeped out when it seemed like he and his friend were dating. What was the name of Marshall's law school buddy?

Answer: Brad

Not only did Brad "date" Marshall, but he ditched everyone at Marshall's bachelor party to go gambling, and tackled the photographer at Lily and Marshall's wedding.
Carl is the bartender at the gang's favorite bar, Stuart is Marshall and Ted's friend who got married in season 1, and Scooter is Lily's high school boyfriend who tried to stop her wedding to Marshall.
7. What former sitcom star provides the voice for Ted in the year 2030?

Answer: Bob Saget

Bob Saget, formerly of "Full House," provides the voice of older Ted in each episode of "How I Met Your Mother." On the DVD commentary, Saget said how much he likes the job as he just goes to the studio, records his voiceover and is all done for the week.
Ted Danson, Tony Danza and Craig T. Nelson are from the shows "Cheers," "Who's the Boss?" and "Coach" respectively.
8. At Eriksen family holidays, Marshall, his father and his brothers play a game that is a combination of three sports. Which of the following is NOT one of the sports?

Answer: Football

The game that Marshall plays is called Baskiceball, which is hockey with a basketball and tennis rackets. Lily questions the game's name, asking if it should be Icesketball instead but all the Eriksens look at her as if she were crazy.
9. On New Year's Eve, Ted rents a limo for the gang to go to multiple parties in New York City. They are all having a great time and even pick up a celebrity. However, it turns out that the celebrity isn't a celebrity at all but is a crazy person with a gun. What one-named celebrity did the gang mistake the crazy person for?

Answer: Moby

Ted thought he saw recording artist Moby on the side of the road and invited him into their limo. It turns out that "Moby" was just a crazy guy with a gun.
10. In season one, Barney and Ted take a trip and end up licking which American monument?

Answer: Liberty Bell

In the episode "The Taste of Liberty," Barney and Ted try to pick up some women at the airport. When it turns out that the women are headed to Philadelphia, Ted and Barney go too, but are disappointed when the women turn out to have professional athlete boyfriends. Instead, Ted and Barney make a detour to lick the Liberty Bell.
