Irish Trivia Day...

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Who doesn't like a challenge, trivia, and prizes? I know, right! So today, post your answers to the questions below and Monday, I'll announce who had the most correct answers. Prizes, you get to choose an original According To Alison photo or surprize gift (trust me my budget does not allow for much, so don't get too excited).

Let the trivia begin.
