It’s March. There is Madness all around. So why not a March (Social) Media Madness trivia special?

Over the next two weeks, we’ll take a look at social media stats in both B2B and B2C environments. The numbers will amaze you!

Today’s Trivia Tuesday has to do with social media in the restaurant industry.

As the US restaurant industry recovers, operators are increasingly employing mobile and social media marketing to meet consumer expectations. Businesses that engage, provide value and reach potential diners where they spend their time will be at a distinct advantage.

It seems as though you all enjoy the trivia! Each week we have more and more folks playing.

This past week, 58% of respondents answered correctly.

A wildly popular 2010 Super Bowl commercial featuring Betty White was selling Snickers. Here’s the commercial, in case you missed it, or just want to remember how funny Snickers commercials used to be.
(Yes, that was a zing! at this years’ Snickers Super Bowl commercial which made my worst list.)

I love it when Betty White says, “That’s not what your girlfriend says!”

If you think I took a below the belt blow with my critique of the 2011 Super Bowl Snickers commercial, take a look at it one more time. Roseanne Barr doesn’t have the comedic sense that Betty White does, and she does a horrible job at taking the hit.

What’s your take on Snickers’ commercials? Do you think the 2011 Snickers “Loggers” commercial works? Why or why not?

Stay tuned for Trivia Tuesday next week! We’ll be spotlighting the next big sporting event: NASCAR’s Daytona 500!

Congratulations to those of you who answered the most recent trivia! “See the USA in your Chevrolet” was a popular jingle in the 1950s.

The song was the Chevrolet jingle sung on the show Inside U.S.A. with Chevrolet by Chevrolet’s real-life husband-wife duo, Peter Lind Hayes and Mary Healy, years before it became associated with Dinah Shore through Chevrolet’s decade-long sponsorship of her television shows. Dinah Shore sang the song after 1952, and it became something of a signature song for her. Later the song was also sung by male spokesman Pat Boone on his Pat Boone-Chevy Showroom (ABC) from 1957 through 1960. When the games of the Los Angeles Dodgers were televised in the 1960s, commercials were aired with the song sung by Johnny Roseboro and Don Drysdale, whose singing careers, announcer Vin Scully said, were “destined to go absolutely nowhere.”

Thanks to Wikipedia for this trivia tidbit!

See Dinah Shore perform the popular jingle on the Dinah Shore Show by Chevy:
