Shower Mixer

So my aunt and my cousin are hosting my bridal shower. They asked me to handle the mixer game (which I am totally fine with) to make sure that the clues on there would involve everyone (FI's mom, FI's grandma, etc as well as my side of the family). They sent me a copy of a mixer that was used at another person's shower and told me I could change whatever ones I wanted. I did good with changing most of them but there's still a couple that I want to change but can't think of anything good. 

Ideas please?

I already have ones like "A dietitian" and "Not born in WI or IL" "A pastor's daughter" "Roomed with hlvonb"  etc.

I need 3 (maybe 4) more.

    Hmmm... I have never heard of this!

    I would like to think of totally random things, like "8th grade spelling bee champ at Anklebiter's Elementary" or "has 25 teacups spanning 5 continents and 15 countries in her collection".

    More generic ones:
    -Was anyone prom/homecoming queen?
    -Any major hobbies? (Long distance biking, quilting, etc... this might encourage interaction between groups with similar interests.)
    -A saying or phrase that someone is known for. (Maybe Great Aunt Lucy always says "fluffernutters!")
    -Who was the first person that you told about your FI?  Did anyone introduce the two of you? Bump into you on your first date?
    -Did anyone give you a recipe that's your "go to" for everything? (hlvonb got her famous jello mold recipe from this person)
    -Humorous first encounter stories? (i.e. this person's dog pantsed hlvonb at the dogpark and they have been friends ever since!)

    That's all I got, good luck!

    Thanks! Those are great ideas

    The game is a good idea when having a combined shower (people from both sides who may not necessarily know all the aunts on the other person's side). It is a fun way to get them to mingle.
