Here is an interesting site for you to try. There are a number of fill-in-the-blank type games.
I started off with the periodic table of the elements... that didn't go so well.
The planets was hardly even a challenge.
The 50 states was a little harder - especially since I couldn't remember Alabama and Kentucky for a while.
Disney Villains did me in. I can't believe I couldn't remember the villains from 101 Dalmations and the Lion King.
I breezed through the American League on the MLB Teams page, but I got stuck on the last National League team, because really, who cares about the national league? I take some comfort knowing that the one I missed was the third-most frequently missed overall.
American Idol winners proved easier than I thought, though I still couldn't remember one of the runners up (runner ups?).
And finally, my AP US History teacher from high school would be ashamed that I could only name 24 of the US Presidents correctly. It is interesting to see which presidents were missed most often. I don't remember ever even hearing #21's name before...
Have fun.
