    Who is more prestigious: Wolfgang Amadeus or Ludwig Van?

    • VJ says:

      Albert, I asked you before what you mean by prestigious. More important? More impressive? More well-known?

      Until I know that, I can’t offer an opinion on these questions.

    Happy 4th of July. Congrats to Ryan, a new champion with $34,650. We’re 16 games away until the Season Finale.

  3. Lou says:

    Glad that everyone.got this right since Amadeus is my favorite movie that I saw in middle school. Still let’s hope Ryan can build up a streak next week. Furthermore VJ, when was the last time you saw Amadeus?

    • VJ says:

      I’m also glad everyone got it right, Lou. The last time I saw “Amadeus” was also the first time. I don’t remember exactly when that was.

      Extra clues are on the second page of this post for anyone wondering where the link is. That saved me a little time for barbecue today.

      Happy Fourth of July!
