A Christmas Story Quiz

To say that I am obsessed with the Christmas movie, A Christmas Story wouldn't be an understatement. For me, it ranks right up there with my Seinfeld obsession. I have the decorations, the collectables figures, the movie, and of course a leg lamp in my husband's office.
I thought I would have a little fun today and have a quiz of A Christmas Story and see what you all may remember from the movie (that just so happens to run on TBS 24 hours from Christmas Eve to Christmas Day each year). If you see perhaps even half of those airrings (like my fmaily does), I will bet you can score pretty high in this quiz.
Leave your answers in the comments. I will post correct answers tomorrow.
We shall see who earns bragging rights!
Good Luck!
(If you plan to watch the movie trailer, be sure to pause the music that airs in my sidebar)
