[50 fascinating facts about the automotive industry]( John Harrington [ 50 fascinating facts about the automotive industry ]( [See full slideshow »]( Few industries have had a more transformative impact on society than the automobile industry. Since it first challenged the horse for transportation supremacy in the late 19th century, the automobile has been a source of fascination, as well as a springboard for innovation and ambition. Supporters see the car as a symbol of freedom and millions of jobs. Detractors blame automobiles for suburban sprawl, the decline of cities, pollution, traffic, and fatalities. For more than 120 years, the automobile has spawned interesting facts and data that have accounted for famous firsts (the first accident or traffic ticket); zany customized options (cars outfitted with flamethrowers—no, not a James Bond car), trends (from the electric car to the combustion engine and back to electric), and quirky laws pertaining to cars (in California, it's illegal to jump from cars traveling over 65 miles per hour). Stacker compiled its list of 50 fascinating facts about the automotive industry by reviewing a variety of sources that included industry resources such as HotCars, Road & Track, Automotive News, and Car Throttle, government sources such as theFederal Highway Administration, news outlets including PBS and U.S. News and World Report, and online resources like History and car company websites. Given the volume of facts about an industry that has had such an outsized influence on society, we chose ones that were informative, entertaining, and provocative to try to capture the scope of the impact of the automobile.

That must mean we're approaching the holiday season, but as everyone's favorite quiz show proves, fun and festive holidays go way beyond the season of mistletoe and Santa Claus. There are federal holidays (which everyone loves for the day off of work—except maybe essential workers), religious holidays (with delicious cuisines and days of prayer), and patriotic holidays replete with fireworks and parades no matter where they're celebrated. Stacker scoured through "Jeopardy!" archives, the online archive of "Jeopardy!" clues, to create a quiz of 25 questions about holidays. Using primary news sources and government reports, Stacker's quiz includes holidays from around the world and explains the origins, traditions, and pop culture references associated with these events. Each "clue" slide includes the clue, category, value, and date the episode aired, followed by the answer (in traditional "Jeopardy" format). All clues are from November 2020 or before. Do you know which football teams dating back to the 1960s have been regular combatants on Thanksgiving Day? What about the violent history of a certain holiday associated with Cupid, chocolates, and cards? This quiz explains all of the above as well as the Vietnamese traditions on Lunar New Year, the symbols and traditions associated with Kwanzaa, and the rich and important history of Juneteenth. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, many Americans will be staying at home this holiday season, but that shouldn't diminish the importance of reflection and fun when celebrating in the coming months. For starters, try out this quiz and see if you can top your friends, family, and co-workers on your knowledge of holidays. Who knows? Perhaps a tryout on the actual "Jeopardy!" game show could come under the tree.
