--I heard once about a trivia game that had as one of
it's questions "What trivia game has 40% [or something
like that] of its answers wrong?  ANSWER: Trivial
Pursuit."

Mind you, I've encountered this myself in the game
(though I can't account for that great a discrepancy).
 But anyway, you're justified. c:
