The fifth question of the night reminds us all why a little healthy pop culture is essential to keep the brain cells going. The question had everything to do with Texas and the products America uses.

Donoghue, Walter Benona Sharp, and Arnold Schlaet upon discovery of oil at Spindletop. The company sold gas in all 50 states and was independent until it merged in 2001.

UK Texaco Gas Station and Petrol Station

UK Texaco Gas Station and Petrol Station: The Getty Oil takeover battle between Texaco and Pennzoil was probably one of the ugliest in Wall Street's history. In 1984, Texaco swooped in at the last minute with a winning bid before Pennzoil was able to finalize an already agreed-upon deal with Getty Oil.

A furious Pennzoil filed suit and started a bitter legal feud that lasted for the following four years, which pushed Texaco into bankruptcy, until a settlement of $3 billion, brokered by Carl Icahn, was reached. At the time, Cal Icahn, a noted corporate raider and financier, accumulated over 13% of Texaco's stock in a failed attempt to take control of the board.

However, the settlement, in which Icahn acted as a catalyst, removed the dark clouds hanging over Texaco and Pennzoil. As a result, both companies were able to move on and refocus on business. The resulting gains in stock prices also got Icahn some sizable financial windfall.

In the end, the biggest winner of all were the law firms, as Texas lawyer Joseph Jamail (whom Icahn mentioned in the video below) reportedly got $600 million for leading Pennzoil's attack against Texaco.

Here is a rare video of Carl Icahn recounting the event at Caroline's Comedy Club in Manhattan, New York.
