I had no idea Trivial Pursuit was so dangerous

Woman hospitalized after Trivial Pursuit game.

This is hands down the best part of the article:

"Cooper, 21, who was the yellow piece.."
Because that is vital to the story. Vital.

Since I now know what color her piece was, I want to know if you have to be Norwegian-American to go to that particular hospital?

Hee! Awesome! You're right about it being weirdly specific. Also tremendously amused by cannabis, "hit" and "blunt" (with accompanying explanation). I feel like this must be a code or cipher of some kind and we're just not privy to the real meaning. Because otherwise, the hell?

See, if we'd had this system when I played Trivial Pursuit, I might've not vowed to never play it again.

the science and nature wedge would be my undoing.
