Contestant Information
Head 2 Head Champion Rob Caskie was born in Cootamundra, New South Wales, the same town in which cricketer Don Bradman was born.
Pool A Champion Daniel Viles is a regular guest of Richard Fidler on 612 ABC Brisbane.
Paul Lorraway, who lost to Viles during Pool A, was the series winner of Sport in Question, ABC TV's previous attempt at a sports quiz show in 1986.
Jonathon Makai who also lost to Viles in pool A went on to become host of the "Jono and Von Breakfast Show" on Magic 89.9 in Port Lincoln. He is currently a freelance writer and broadcaster based in London.
Despite the Head 2 Head Grand Final being promoted as happening on "the famous first Saturday in December", it eventually aired on the second Saturday in December after the ABC chose to broadcast a netball Test match in October during Head 2 Head's timeslot, thus pushing the entire schedule back one week.

Famous quotes containing the words contestant and/or information:
“Ashtrays to cry into,
the suffering brother of the wood walls,
the forty-eight keys of the typewriter
each an eyeball that is never shut,
the books, each a contestant in a beauty contest,
the black chair, a dog coffin made of Naugahyde....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“On the breasts of a barmaid in Sale
Were tattooed the prices of ale;
And on her behind
For the sake of the blind
Was the same information in Braille.”
—Anonymous.
