Probably though most the time I see them under there own level 2 or 3 heading of Trivia. I think an actual "OMG TRIVIA WATCH OUT!" kinda box would disrupt the flow of the article. Heck I don't much care for the spoiler warning templates though obviously they are necessary.
The best solution is to teach editors not to want to include trivia to begin with.
They do have one benefit: they let new editors get their toes wet. It seems to me that the first contributions made by a lot of new editors are either adding to trivia sections like that ("Oh! Oh! I know! I saw this in a Simpsons episode once! I can't believe no one added that!") or adding to existing lists of other things (creating the phenomenon of a list of 37 examples when only 2 were needed).
Solution: Regular pruning.
