3/3 on DD and got FJ. FJ was a little tricky, because it was like that old riddle: “You have two coins totalling 55 cents, but one of them is not a nickel”. Sure, cousin of the Queen, but, the other person IS the Queen!
Kat got herself in trouble twice, I believe, by ringing in but not coming up with it
I noticed the middle player went by “Dave”, but Ken called him “David” at the end of the first round. Dave mentioning Jerome Vered was something!!
Good game, Kat was mostly outclassed, but she got in when she could, at least until she fudged that FTZ clue near the end. Thought my fellow Portland guy would pull this one out. His parent losing to Jerome Vered was no shame; that guy is a genius.
I said the V&A Museum but was 99.9% certain that was wrong. I was in London in 1971 but never visited it, just the Tate and British. Also got first/3rd DDs, so a good night. Got the Billy G venue and the sturdy nightstand; should have nailed at least two of the others.
Concur Kat was overmatched. But, oh my goodness – the Staples Center? Really?
Agreed. Generally I’m amazed by how much players half my age or younger know stuff from my childhood/teen years, but every once in awhile they say something cringeworthy like that. I’ve been to the LA venue a few times, including the 1984 Olympics and a couple Rams and Raiders games, but not to Staples (now Crypto.com).
Well, players half your age or younger learn stuff from their parents and grandparents. I have a kid born in the 70s, one in the 80s and one in the 90s. I got a kick out of it when the Jeopardy! panel didn’t know “how now brown cow” but my youngest did. 🤣
I tried to watch the time today, but I unfortunately missed the first couple of minutes of today’s game. Darn!
Even then, I did about average with all things considering.. Anyways, I went with the Victoria Museum for FJ. Perhaps I can still get credit for it (as I was referring to that big museum in England)?
