I thought I'd start a trivia question thread and see if it sparks some interest and at the same time we can all learn some more about football history in Guatemala Simple rules: - 1 point (and bragging rights!) for every question correctly answered - Time limit: 1 week per question (I will post 3 per week. I may post more as questions are answered - But you're welcome to post your own question!) - Everyone is welcome to participate! @Popol Vuh @jfcule @aramada @Guatefc @drerodz @Itzallboutgtown @Evolute @Tecunuman @ @BKR inC @Ishto @annoyedbyneedoflogin @EvanJ @vilafria @Chul0 @LesG9 @OnTheeRize @MetroChile @Catracho_Azul @dezeptus @Ben Fossen
First batch of questions. Good luck! - Under what coach did Carlos "El Pescadito" Ruiz make his debut for the National Team?
- In what baseball / football stadium has the Guatemala national football team played, where the both the World Series and the Superbowl had been played?
No, neither the Superbowl or the World Series were ever played at the Miami Orange Bowl, although Guatemala played 4 times there.
Correct! 1 point for Popol Vuh The L.A. Coliseum hosted the first ever World Series played in the State of California in 1959, it hosted the 1967 and 1973 Super Bowls, and it has hosted 11 official matches and more than 25 friendlies of the Guatemala NT, being basically our second home. Another correct answer would have been the defunct Candlestick Park in San Francisco, where Guatemala played once.
1) Not Pocho either, but not a bad guess. 2) Neither. I said you were close with Memín, because he was one of the youngest at 16... but not quite the youngest.
Haha I could've swear pasarella was a coach once lol, Rodas? Cordero?....I feel I should just give up and do my physics hw....
Not Rodas or Cordero. Correction, the Super Bowl was played at the Orange Bowl, but not the World Series.
Come on guys, you're not far off. Here is another one: 4. Deportivo Mictlán are a club from the Jutiapa department, currently playing in the LNF (Liga Mayor). Who are the only other team from Jutiapa to ever play in Guatemala's top tier?
Por fin....deportivo achuapa. ........I almost said guastatoya but mom told me guastatoya is from the Progreso department, not municipio in jutiapa
