Below is 100 of the hardest Smashing Pumpkins Trivia questions I could come up with.

Prizes!
1st place:
- The End Is The Beginning Is The End import single
- Video Tape of all 12 Smashing Pumpkins videos + 3 live performances
If you are the 1st place winner & already have either of these prizes, I'll choose an alternate prize for you.
2nd place:
- Starjob, the new EP by the Frogs, produce by Billy Corgan (under a different name.)
3rd place:
- Choice of any bootleg on audio tape (See XSpaceboy1's SP Bootleg Page for a list of available tapes.)

When the deadline, (originally Sept. 15, has been extended for a little while), is up, all the answers to these questions will be given. If you submit answers to me, I can tell you how many you got right, but I can not tell you which ones were right.

About sending in your answers:
Send all the answers you could come up with on 1 e-mail to xspaceboy1@aol.com.
For each answer that you give, you should also quote the question & the question number. Please do not quote questions that you don't have an answer for.

The deadline for entries may be changed, depending on how small or big of a response I get to this.
Some of the questions may change: Some may be taken out, some may be added, some I may add hints to, some I may just change the wording. Always use the most current question list on this page (for those of you saving it to a text file.)
I may change the prizes. I will probably only do this if I can't get the equipment to dub the video tape. In that case, I will offer something else in it's place.


Good Luck !
