"Tell me a fact that you and 10,000 Americans know, but I do not know."

Edit: In hopes of more interesting responses.. satisfying the above criteria is the bare minimum. With a moment of thought it's clear that it's not hard to do, especially considering how little I know =( The interestingness of the fact therefore is paramount for us ATOTers to think you gave a good answer. And everyone knows you crave ATOT's approval.

Few facts about me in case it helps..
Studied comp sci and finance, working in mathy ish firm now. General interest in sports, music, video games, but no real expertise in any of those.

I'm not sure how many times you need to be told not to post that stuff in threads that are not about that stuff, but apparently the last time when the Forum Director told you "Stop posting this crap in threads where it is not the topic, or you will face a series of escalating sanctions" was not enough. See you in awhile.

Huh? I didn't say anything, much less say something and claim it fit the criteria of the prompt, like you imply.. Perhaps you're confusing me with someone else. Or perhaps vshah is right and I am too dumb to understand.

@skim: didn't really have an answer in mind.. was just hoping to learn something interesting.

@ironwing: I like your answer the best so far =)
 
Without looking it up on-line?

Price for tickets/parking tickets at last Sundays Bears game at Soldier's Field. Seating capacity is 61k. 😛

YES!!!
 
Carmine (aka cochineal), a common red food coloring, is made from bugs.

Kikkoman soy sauce contains wheat gluten while La Choy does not.

The punk on the bus in Star Trek IV was an associate producer, and he wrote (or co-wrote...it's been a while) the song blasting from his boom box.

The Ford GT40 was so named because it is 40 inches tall.

Sean Connery was a runner-up in the 1953 Mr. Universe competition.

When you see a movie directed by Alan Smithee, that means the director refused to have his name associated with the movie after seeing how it was edited, etc.

The P-51 Mustang originally had an underperforming Allison engine and only became a superstar after it was fitted with a Rolls-Royce Merlin.

If you run a diesel engine on reclaimed vegetable oil, the exhaust smells like french fries.

In The Legend of Zelda, it's possible to get the white sword without getting the wooden sword first.

Nice. I only knew one, and you can probably guess which one.
 
What I had for breakfast this morning.

(I'm actually very famous, and I'm sure at least 10,000 celebrity newshounds know that already.)
