WDW Trivia

I found this trivia list from The Sentinel for WDW, it is from 2004. I had not seen this before. The numbers are amazing, but yet not so because this list is from 2004, considering attendence was lower than it was in 2005 & 2006 the numbers now must be staggering. I've posted the Orlando Sentinel page that lists this because there is an interactive Trivia game in the middle of the page look for the link. I have played the game & it's not so easy, I had to stop playing my cold meds are making me miss questions (LOL), I am unsure if there would be a score when the game ended.
