I just pulled it up on wiki, and then I remembered they went to his birthplace on a relatively recent season of The Amazing Race.

It's one of my favorite trivia questions, but I usually ask for the country.

Forgive the stupid question. How does a trivia night at a bar work? Is it like a game show where you ring in first? Is it a written test teams work on? Is there an MC to run the show?

Typically multiple teams and an MC runs it. Round by round you hand in answers to several questions at a time and are scored. Some have wagering components, some have music rounds, etc. We play 2-3 times per week around the city.

Missed #s 17, 18 and 20. One year off on Andrew, misread the QB question, but doubt I would have guessed that.

I surprised myself by missing only two. I was within a year on Andrew.

Didn't more than one city serve as the capital of the Confederacy?

Yes, but I checked beforehand and Richmond was their DC, essentially.
