Only stumper I knew for sure was the diaper company.
Philly and Boston seemed too obvious for FJ, so I went with NYC, where there’s a John Jay HS and also a school of law at NYU.
Happy to see james winning today, I am rooting for him in the finals
I went with Philadelphia too in FJ, and struck out. Good for James; he selected Paris.
As did I, thinking of Ben Franklin and his partying days there (don’t know if you know of the “Hellfire Club”).
Unusually, I got well less than half the triple stumpers correct! I’m usually about 50%.

Yes, James was like a tornado in the first round. I thought he would have a runaway, but Pam did a good job of catching up in the second.
Jessica on Monday had the only runaway.
Renee, darn those daily doubles.
