"...And this has been another Useless Fact"

Or so said Yacko on Animanaiacs. SO I have decided to ask you, my fellow interferencers for your help. Being extremely silly, I have come to the radical decision that it is time to compile the largest conglomeration of usless facts into one post.

I shall begin.

Russian athletes used to eat caviar before every big event because of all the protein. Government would subsidize this.

The Pittsburg Steelers football team only has a logo on one side of their helmet because when the team started out the equipment manager didn't double the number of players [two decals per player] and to this day, they've just left it that way.

From the "How do we get this stuff back home?" Department:
In West Virginia, it is technically illegal to possess alcohol within 10 feet of any establishment that sells alcohol.

So you best run fast once you leave the store, or have someone with good hands waiting to catch the alcohol as you throw it from the door, otherwise you could get arrested right as you walk out the door.
