The rules of this little game are simple. You give a topic and the person below you has to give up three random facts about said topic, giving the next person a topic of their own. For example:
Someone above me would give sports as their topic and I would give them these facts:
The Kansas City Chiefs and Dallas Cowboys are the only two teams in the NFL that have played all of their division rivals at least 100 games and having an all-time winning record against all of them, while the Eagles, Chargers, and Lions are the only three teams in the NFL that have played all their division rivals at least 100 games and having an all-time losing record against all of them?
The Kansas City Royals are the only team in Kansas City, Missouri that has never relocated nor been renamed. They've been the Royals since 1969. The Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL were formally the Dallas Texans and were located in Dallas, Texas. Sporting Kansas City was originally known as the Kansas City Wizards and are now located in Kansas City, Kansas, while the Kansas City Scouts are now the New Jersey Red Devils and the Kansas City Kings are now the Sacramento Kings.
Sporting Kansas City's home, Children's Mercy Park is the only MLS Stadium to host the MLS Cup, Lamar Hunt Open Cup, and MLS All-Star game in the same year, doing so in 2013.

1.Scotland is currently the second largest country in the UK, after England.

The Sun is constantly going through nuclear fusion and is made up primarily of hydrogen and helium.
Black holes have a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape them.
Gamma Ray Bursts are one of the brightest known electromegnetic events that can be seen in space, and if we were hit by one, it would wreck the living hell out of our planet.

Oooh,colors.I got an interesting one I learned in high school.
Men and woman actually see the color red differently. I'm not gonna get into woman is best or anythin.but...men simply just see red. Just,simple red. Woman see all of the shades. Explanation is that men have chromosome X in their eye,while woman have 2 chromosomes,making them see better shades. Sooooo,basically don't worry if you are panicking finding the right color lipstick,it doesn't make a difference ^^.

Finishing out the three color facts first:
Human beings are trichromats, meaning that we have three color receptor cones (people with color blindness and most mammals only have two). However, there is a woman in England that is a tetrachromat, with four color cones and it's estimated that she can see 99 million more colors that the normal human!! If that's not enough to boggle your mind, the mantis shrimp has SIXTEEN COLOR CONES!!!!!
Your blood is green underwater!
Not technically true, but rather all of the red wavelengths of light get absorbed within the first twenty or so feet of being underwater, leaving the blue and green wavelengths which get sucked up much more slowly!
And now onto Art!:
Vincent Van Gogh produced more than 2,000 works during his life: 900 paintings and 1,100 drawings and sketches. He only sold one painting while he was alive.
Salvador Dali would skip out on paying his tabs by drawing and doodling on his checks. Establishments wouldn't cash the check as it was believed that the drawings from the famous Mr. Dali were more valuable than the meal that he ate!
The Mona Lisa. While some claim that Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting is a self-portrait of the artist himself in drag, research has concluded it is likely a portrait of a woman named Lisa Gherardini, a member of a prominent Florentine family and wife of a wealthy silk merchant. Leonardo’s father allegedly knew Gherardini’s father very well, and the painting was possibly commissioned by him.
