I saw Hoffa's picture on the TV from a distance this morning and thought

"What the hell has John Travolta done now?"

I don't think we have a post on King Richard III of England either, lately; some human remains of which may or may not be his have been excavated from under a parking lot at the one-time site of a ruined church where his body could have been taken in 1485.

I had been thinking of starting a thread called "move over, Jimmy" at the time of the stories on R III.

of course, the odds are that neither of these sets of remains will be the 'right' ones.

Actually, I kind of remember stuff about Richard III several months ago - maybe it wasn't here, though... Interesting stuff, there. Hoffa, not so much.

Dammit! I didn't bother to read the responses before I posted because what are the odds that somebody is going to beat me to a 15th century England reference??

Yeah, not exactly the same reference, but close enough for jazz....

Considering where you are posting, the odds weren't that off....

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that this was the topic of the only $2.5 million question ever seen on Super Millionaire.
Bob-O Essig walked away from:

"The last known siting of labor leader Jimmy Hoffa was on July 30, 1975 at which Michigan restaurant's parking lot?"

I hadn't heard that one. Might be WWOQ material on SyndieBAM, if they stress the "buried under a parking lot" angle! :lol:

Which was part of a QoD I posted back in February 2001.....


2/17/01 QoD:

1. Where was Jimmy Hoffa last confirmed to be seen on July 30, 1975 before he
disappeared? -
Spoiler
Machus Red Fox Restaurant in Bloomfield Hills, MI (A SuperBAM Q)
2. Who was the navigator who disappeared with Amelia Earhart? -
Spoiler
Fred Noonan (Also on SuperBAM)
3. Who was the magician who revealed the secrets on Fox's series "Secrets of Magic
Revealed? -
Spoiler
Valentino (Not yet on SuperBAM, but don't bet against it! Well, I guess this is a moot point now!)
