The answer is 2 because if YOU take away 2 apples, then YOU HAVE 2 apples. This is a trick question designed to make you do subtraction (3-2=1) when it's actually asking what you possess after taking the apples. The wording 'how many do YOU have' refers to the apples you took, not what remains.

Explanation

The answer is True because the fan can literally say the words 'the score' before any game begins - this is a play on words. He's not predicting the actual game score, he's just saying the phrase 'the score'. This appears to be about supernatural prediction but is actually a linguistic trick.
