On this week’s who knew Wednesday, we discussed Apples, Frogs, and Leprechauns; plus who am I trivia. Here is what we talked about:

WHO KNEW FACT CHECK – Male frogs of the Genus Pipa jump and wrestle other males over territory

National Apple Pie Day – Apples are not originally from America. They came from Kazakhstan

National Leprechaun Day – Two major sports franchises have leprechaun logos, The Boston Celtics and Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

National Jumping Frog Day – The South African Sharp-Nosed Frog can jump 90 times its own body length. If humans could jump that same proportion, the average human could jump 500 feet

Who Am I?

  1. I was born in New York City on May 13, 1922
  2. Before I became famous on television, I made my mark on Broadway-and even won a Tony Award for my role in musical Mame
  3. You may know me best as a strong-willed, outspoken woman on not one-but two-hit TV comedy shows in different decades\
  4. First, I brough sharp wit on CBS as Maude Findlay… then laughs as Dorothy NBC’s The Golden Girls
  5. During World War II, I proudly served my country as a member of the U.S. Marine Corps Women’s Reserve

I am…Bea Arthur!! Congratulations to Jay of Mount Vernon for guessing correctly and taking home a $5 gift card to Watts Restaurant in Utica!
