Q: Do contestants on "Let's Make a Deal" get to keep Zonk prizes, or are they just for display?
Technically, neither.
Zonks are pitfalls built into the game — comically bad prizes contestants get when they're hoping for good ones. They're items like goats, trips to places that don't exist, or cars that have gone through trash compactors. But even if the contestant wants what they "won," they can't have it. This is generally for practical purposes. For example, it would be more expensive to ship a goat to someone than it would be to give them a real, flashy prize.

Q: I saw Hugh Grant wearing a New York Yankees cap once. Is he a fan?
I couldn't find British rom-com legend Hugh Grant ("Love Actually," 2003) on the record anywhere saying he even likes baseball, let alone the New York Yankees in particular. It's more likely he was wearing it the way millions of people all over the world do: as a fashion item.
