We received an insane amount of emails with hungry fans trying to score a pair of tickets to see Tito Ortiz taking on Chuck Liddell in UFC 47: Its On!
The contested ended on Saturday, March 13th, 2004. Dont even try to enter the contest now because your emails will simply be deleted.
However, while hundreds of contestants entered the contest, only FIVE people answered every question correctly. It seems that one question in particular threw most of you off for some reason (you have to thoroughly read the question). Ill explain after the proper answers are given.
And by the way, only the five possible winners will be notified via email and will be given the final tie-breaker question. The first two people (since we at are giving away two pairs of tickets) who respond to my email the fastest will win, as long as the question is answered correctly. The tie-breaker question will be sent out to the five finalists at the same time. Below are the correct answers:
Q: Chuck The Iceman Liddell is a huge Slayer fan. What is his favorite song from the metal legends?
A: Angel of Death (Chuck revealed this in an old interview and verified it to me over the phone during a new interview that will be posted within a week).
Q: Tim Sylvia is a huge movie buff. Who does he consider to be his all-time favorite actor?
A: Al Pacino (Tim Sylvia revealed this to me during a phone conversation after I informed him of the trivia contest. He reassured me during our interview which will be posted this week. Many contestants guessed this one correctly- good job).
Q: Editor-in-chief of Ko.Sherdog.com, Mike Sloan, has a boxer (dog) named Tito. His dog is not named after Tito Ortiz. Who is his dog really named after?
A: Felix Trinidad (That ones easy. I mention Trinidad in many of my articles and my avatar on the forums is of Trinidad after he KOed Fernando Vargas)
Q: In the Mandalay Bay, there is a giant headless statue. What tourist/locals hotspot is this statue standing directly to the right of?
A: The Rum Jungle (THIS is the question almost everybody got wrong. Most people answered the Red Square Bar. The Red Square is a hotspot that is situated directly to the right of the headless Lenin statue, but the question asked what hotspot the statue was standing directly to the right of, which is the Rum Jungle. The statue is directly to the right of the Rum Jungle. The order from left to right is Rum Jungle-headless Lenin statue-Red Square).
Hope you all enjoyed the contest. Stay tuned to find out who the lucky winners are and dont forget to enter the upcoming Jones/Tarver II contest and the UFC 48 contest.
