Secretariat was once part of a trick sports trivia question. It could still be a question. I just don't know if the answer has expanded. At the time the question was: Name the only four sports personalities ever on the cover of TIME, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated in the same week. Answer at the time: Nadia Comenci, Hank Aaron, Joe Montana (two of the pictures were the Notre Dame team) and Secretariat. Everyone would try to think of four people rather than sports personalities.
