Default The Origins of the Mysterious Club 41

Perhaps...have to do with this?

The old properitor (Disney) died, just like Club 41's former owner. Apparently nobody also knows where Club 33's name came from.

I think I actually saw a 'Club 41' in a movie recently. It might have been Short Circuit 2, but I'd have to go back and double check.

well 42 is the answer to everything, so why not just "prank" and do a number under that?

That's half of it, definitely. Good catch.

But the number 41 is significant, and not just because of its proximity to 42.

Somewhat surprised that no one's thought of it yet,

Is it because of the 40 MB limit on WiiWare games?

Did I win something?

The entire name, "Club 41", reminded me of something from day 1... But I can't put my finger on what.
(Incidentally, there used to be a "Club 22" near here)

That's how old you were when you wrote the episode?
That's the number of theories people have come up with for what the "secret" is?
It's the percentage of fans who can sing "I've Got a Monkey in my Pocket" backwards? (It does have a pretty devoted fanbase ...)

Actually, I was 41 when I came up with it... odd that.
