    Endgame was easily the most anticipated movie at the time so I'd say its right.. dunno if infinity war made that much.. seems very high

    The only reason I got that was I saw a YouTube video a few weeks ago where people were watching the show for the first time, so the number was fresh in my head

    Well not in general no, but I still do know some things, and can very much enjoy Basketball, Ice Hockey, Tennis, and Rugby if the mood strikes me ; wouldn't follow them religiously or anything, but I've been known to watch from time to time. Quite a lot of sports I think are watchable even if I don't follow them personally.

    Soccer is really the only one I can't stand in the slightest.

    Clue: Jules Rimet Trophy

    How many countries have appeared in a FIFA World Cup final at least once?

    I can name 10, but don't know about the early years so there might be three more that I'm missing.

    That's not what I'm looking for but that's a great answer as it's also technically correct as 13 nations have played in the world Cup final at least once
