Stop posting all these geography ones…


Wilt Chamberlain scoring 100 points in a single game in 1964 is a feat that will likely NEVER be surpassed in the NBA…

…Neither will his lifetime record of banging over 20,000+ women ever likely be broken either.

lol definitely caught me on some poor grammar - there are more public libraries than McDonalds in the US. That being said, you got a good useless trivia fact?

He could have never scored a goal and Wayne Gretzky would still be the NHL's all time points leader. Without extreme rule changes, that record will absolutely never be broken.

That said, Wilt's other record is probably pretty secure.

On a smaller scale in the SF Bay Area--and this is only of lesser non-interest to local folk--UC Berkeley in the East Bay is further west than rival Stanford along the Peninsula.

I was taught a newly severed head weighs approximately 15 lbs.

The difference could be from fresh versus preserved.
