UA Trivia Game - Poor Taste In Questions
Hi All,
Today I tried out the new UA Trivia game using the phone app during my flight.
They asked a sort of joke question about the Holocaust:
Something like: What are the towns of Auschwitz and Dachau famous for?
Choices were:
Famous Wine Regions
Towns With Great Beer Halls
Nazi Concentration Camp Sites
... Were They Thinking? It seems like asking pseudo joke questions about the Holocaust are of poor taste. End Rant.

While I don’t think it’s in “bad taste”, it does seem like an odd topic of which to have in the pool of questions.
Personally I have visited at least half a dozen of these sights and do so in a way of remembrance and further understanding of the events that happened. My feeling is that these sights are crucial to the understanding of world history and by engaging with them allows us to connect with and remember those whom they claimed.

Just tried to poke around and the next Trivia game is at the top of the hour.
This appears to be a 3rd party mini-app linked from within the United app.
