Haven't seen a trivia thread for a while (ever?). No fair peeking unless a few hours go by without an answer.

Easy question to start: Two internationally huge 80s bands had a lead singer whose last name is Sumner. Name them.

OK, I'll play. Here's one that'll surprise some folks:

In the 1970s, original Chicago lead singer Terry Kath killed himself in a game of Russian roulette. Which much younger, now-huge TV star did his widow later marry?

NO GOOGLING!!

Ahh....yes. I now do recall that.
After Big Mama and Keith wrapped up a long night of hard partying at Nilsson's place Mama went to the kitchen to make that infamous Dagwood sized ham sandwich. As Mama was scarfing it down she began to choke and fell on top of Keith who was passed out on the floor.
Her enourmous weight crushed poor Keith and in his wasted condition he was unable to struggle out from under Mama mountain.
Nilsson was also wasted out of his skull and unable to hear the struggle taking place on the floor in the next room and provide any assistance. When HN finally came to hours later he saw the two on top of each other and assumed that both had given in to their drunken desires and went back to bed. He finally called for medical assistance hours later but by this time both were long dead.
