Howard gave a caller named Steve a chance to play The High Pitch Erik Trivia Game, explaining that Erik had been asked a series of trivia questions–Steve must guess whether or not Erik answers them correctly. 3 out of 5 takes home a cash prize.

The questions/prompts, followed by Steve’s prediction and Erik’s answer:

What does D.C. stand for in Washington D.C.? No. “District of Columbia.” (wrong)

Who was shot in Ford Theater? No. “Ford!” (correct)

Spell banana. No. “B-A-N-A-N-A.” (wrong)

Where is Nigeria? Yes. “Nigeria!” (wrong)

What’s the capitol of New York? Yes. “Albany.” (correct)

Even though Steve, who claimed to be a little drunk and on painkillers, only got 2 right, Howard gave him the prize and sent him on his way.
