[The KingPin]

Hello to all,

For fun we are going to have a Trivia Question.

Who's Birthday is it this month?

It could be a PBA Pro, A place, A company, it is wide open.

I am not sure if we will make this a contest, yet we will see what the guesses are and go from there.

On the day of this Trivia questions big day, we will announce who it is.

Good luck!!!

[onefrombills]

Chris I think next time you need to tell us a little more about what your looking for.....LOL

[The KingPin]

Well I cannot give out too much too quickly

It can be a PERSON, PLACE, or THING!!!

[The KingPin]

Hmm no more guesses?

How about a hint?

If this answer was a dog it would be young, yet not old enough to drink

So take how old the answer is and this should help narrow down your guesses.
