I replied (not to all) to the quiz.
1.  Who was Arthur Dooley Wilson?
2.  Who was Elliot Carpenter?
and then asked:
Do you know the story .. when he got booked
into a theater after the movie?
Robert Ringwald replied with
"Tell us the story"
So for those who do not know...
Dooley Wilson was booked into an out of town theater. 
When he arrived, the manager told the stage hands to
roll out the piano. Then he asked Dooley to "play that song."
Dooley, to say the least, was shocked and said to the
manager, "but I don't play the piano!"

The above from a live interview with Arthur Dooley Wilson
on NPR some years ago.
