Hey! Think you're smart? Think your gray matter is worth something? Yeah? Well, take a crack at these....

What do Princess Leia and breakfast pastries have in common? What species of dinosaur would have loved deli
sandwiches? Which of the Seven Dwarfs might have benefited most from a dose of Prozac? Does size really matter? And
what author's name is an anagram of the word "toilets"?

So, think you know trivia? Think you know trivia games? YOU DON'T KNOW JACK!¬

YOU DON'T KNOW JACK is a fast-paced game where you are the contestant on a TV trivia game show. YOU DON'T KNOW JACK
can be played by 1 to 3 players. The goal of YOU DON'T KNOW JACK is to rack up cash. If you're the player with the
most cash at the end of the game, you're the winner.
