This is a quiz for people who know everything! Image

I found out in a hurry that I didn't. :P

These are not trick questions. Image

They are straight questions with straight answers. Image

And no googling Image :D

1. Name the one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends.


2. What famous North American landmark is constantly moving backward?


3. Of all vegetables, only two can live to produce on their own for several growing seasons. All other vegetables must be replanted every year. What are the only two perennial vegetables?
