Have you checked out the date today?! Today just so happens to be 3-14 or in the world of Geeks, Pi Day. As 3.14 is the short short short version for the symbol Pi. (Click here for more info on Pi.) Not to mention the Geek of ALL Geeks, Albert Einstein, just so happens to have his birthday fall on 3-14. Seriously! It is quite a celebrated day.
So just why are we sharing all of this with you? Because it’s that time of the year Addicts…the only day of the year where we give away PIE! Mmmmmmmmm PIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!
See when we think of Pi Day…we think of PIE!! So in honor of all the geeky nerds, nerdy geeks, and all in between…WE ARE GIVING AWAY PIE. (sorta) WOOHOO!!
In the past, we’ve given away pie, but because we can only send it inside the US..and that’s not fair to our many readers outside the US…this year I decided let’s do something we can send to anyone. A pie themed LEGO minifig…
It’s not edible, but it’s still fun!
Now comes the fun stuff…HOW do you win?
Since we’re on the trivia kick, I thought we’d have a little fun with this one. Take some time and fill out the Pie Man Simpsons Trivia below. All the questions are from “Simple Simpson” S15, E19. EVERYONE that plays trivia will be entered to win the LEGO minifig. Just be sure to put your name, email address, and country in the box…and make sure they’re all valid.
As long as you play the trivia you’ll be entered to win, doesn’t matter how many you get right.
For those of you having trouble viewing the form above, you can access the direct link to it here.
Simple enough, right? Don’t forget to fill it out completely. No corrections accepted. First time has to be done right.
The contest will close as of 11:59 PM ET on March 15th, 2019. Any submissions after that will not be accepted into the contest. Once the contest is closed, we will put all the valid entries into http://www.random.org/ and let the Geeky computer spit out TWO Winners!
Once the winners are picked we will get in contact with the Winners via email (so make sure you enter a valid one in the email section when you fill out your information on the comment form) to verify their address. The winners will have THREE days from that email being sent to claim their prize otherwise we’ll move onto the next winners.
Now for all that legal stuff…
Official Rules: Each contestant may only submit ONE entry! (No revisions/reposting accepted. If multiple entries are submitted by the same reader only the FIRST entry submitted will be accepted.)
Valid email address must be provided when submitting an entry, this will be how we will contact you to let you know you’ll be featured. (they are not published on the blog and only viewable by the blog staff.)
Winners will have THREE days after receiving a winning email to claim their prize, otherwise, we’ll move onto the next winner in line.
You must be 18 or older to enter.

So what are you waiting for? Let’s celebrate Pi Day with Pie!
I got all of the answers correct.
I managed to get 7/7 with mostly guesses. Haven’t seen this episode in awhile
You always beat me! I only got 3 this time 😂
7/7 and I haven’t seen that episode in ages!
1/7😥.
Have seen episode yet admittedly limited storage.
I got a 2/7. This exact episode is on in an hour on FXX.
Oups! Shame on me! 2/7! Grosss! My memory is failing badly! Mind you I have not seen it much. Maybe only once, so, can I be excused?!? 🤣🤣🤣
I got 5/7. I don’t even remember this episode.
6/7… Somehow this episode is still engrained into my subconscious despite not watching it in over a decade!
unrelated to pi day… but my golden goose has been glitching since the update… every time iquit the game and reopen it there is a new land tile even though the timer doesnt reset… ive gotten 30 new tiles in an hour just quitting and reopening the game pretty crazy
And read (or re-read) Yann Martel’s Life Of Pi.
Wow….5 outta 7. Not bad for NEVER seeing this episode!
7/7! Pie-asy 🙂
Good too know my Simpsons knowledge has stuck with me over the years!
Off topic but is there any reason that Rightiousness rating has dropped to 0?!
Cheers
Put some training wall in your Springfield and the righteousness will be at five stars again.
Love the Pie Man episode! Seen at a dozen times or so. And I also love Pie, my favorite desert, over cake, cookies, etc. Happy Pi(e) Day everybody.
Honestly, I can’t remember this episode…..
Wow, I got 5/7. Perhaps I can remember it subconsciously?
I could of googled the answers like I think a lot of you will do, but I just went off my horrible memory. It’s more fun that way.
I was hoping that by saying the score doesn’t matter for the contest it would discourage folks from cheating. It’s all about the fun, cheating is never fun 🙂
Woo-hoo! 5/7!
Lovely idea, Alissa! Thanks for the thought 😊
