The products gracing the pages of the SkyMall Magazine provide guaranteed laughter, disbelief and audible exclamations of “Who would buy that?” In each question in today’s quiz, one product is actually for sale in SkyMall Magazine; the other is an invention that failed to secure a patent. Can you tell the difference?

  1. 100% I guess being bored while flying last week paid off for something!

  2. I got 100% as well, only I haven’t flown recently – I traveled Amtrak and until about a week ago I had no idea that there is a RAIL version of SkyMall, printed especially for Amtrak!

  3. I flew a few weeks ago, and glanced through but somehow I still doubt I’ll get 100%

  4. 75%. I even remember seeing the picture of that guy with that thing on his head, but I guess the picture freaked me out so much I didn’t even look at the name of the product. On the first question, I actually remember seeing both as choices. I guess I am wrong. That foam gun idea freaked me out. I was hoping that wasn’t an actual product.

  5. My grandfather-a great lover of hot dogs–actually bought one of those hot dog machines. He used it so much it wore out and he had to buy a second one. :-)

  6. 100%! My wife and I registered for our wedding at the skymall. psych.
