2/24 - Question L

Jill was our contestant today on line 2 with $230 in the pot. The boys and Carrie had some fun with her prior to her taking the first question. It's always nice when they are a little early for the game and banter a bit with the contestants. Anyway, the game went like this:

Question I: Zachary Taylor's second eldest sister's name: Sarah Bailey Taylor (confirmed)

Question L: What was Herbert Hoover's maternal grandfather's name (MAternal is what I heard, he could have said PAternal, but I heard MA)

Answer: Theodore Minthorn

We will be up to $240 in the LW Meyers Contractor Supply prize bucket tomorrow.

-Until next time...

2/23- Question G, Question A

Well, Micah didn't fare too well today after getting the first question correct. We again had nothing but repeat questions, and haven't had a new question asked since last week Wednesday, the 18th.

Today's repeats were question G about James Buchannon and question A about Grover Cleveland. I will direct you to the complete list of quesitons and answers for details.

$230 will be up for grabs tomorrow.

-Until next time...

2/17- Question I

A little late in the day for a posting, but I was busy today and forgot until now. Good friend of the show and frequent contestant, Douglas was as entertaining as ever on line 1 today. Bob even told him he never needed to apologize for being an idiot, which is always a good thing to hear from the BnB bunch.

There was $180 in the pot today and unfortunately, Douglas was asked a new question, which he may have had the answer to, but couldn't get to it in time.

Question I: What was Zachary Taylor's second eldest sister's name?
Answer: Sarah Bailey Taylor

Again, the link to the answer will take you to a page that has the family of each President, which could prove useful in this round.

Tomorrow we will be playing for $190. Good luck everyone.

-Until next time...

2/16- Repeat Question C

I know, I know, I said I was going to post an old round over the weekend, but just never got to it. I'll put another one up sometime soon.

In the meantime, we have the Presidents category going on now and Denise was the contestant today on line 2 for $170. She apparently had not done her homework yet as the first and only question asked was a repeat.

Question C: What was Milard Filmore's second sister's name?
Answer: Julia

So, $180 goes in for tomorrow's jackpot and we play on.

Good luck everyone.

-Until next time...

2/13 - Question H

A guy who is calling all kinds of radio stations just to play games this morning was our contestant. I'm not even going to type his name or what line he was on, let's just get to the question he was asked for $160 and all of the other prizes.

Question H: What was Warren G. Harding's third sister's name?
Answer: Eleanor Priscilla Harding

It was great when the question was asked because Bob talked over the first part of it so the contestant probably couldn't hear the whole thing.

*By the way, the link for the answer is a site that give the brothers and sisters of the Presidents, so it could definitely come in handy this round.

$170 on Monday, I'll post an old round over the weekend.

-Until next time...

2/12 - Question B, Question F, Question G

An interesting game today as Troy on line 4 got to the third question in his quest for the $150 in the jackpot. We had 2 new questions, and 2 confirmed correct answers in today's game. Troy appears to have the right idea and seemed to have a list of the Presidents and their families in front of him, which may not be a bad idea.

We've already established that fathers, mothers, sisters, sons, and assasins are going to be involved this round, so it is all going to be about Presidents and those around them, or trying to kill them.

Alright, enough, on to the questions:

Question B- What was James K Polk's father's name?
Answer: Samuel

Question F- What was Harry Truman's mother's name?
Answer: Martha Ellen Young Truman

It sounded like Brian would just accept Martha, but you may want to play it on the safe side and say the full name

Quesion G- What was James Buchanan's youngest sister's name?
Answer: Harriet Buchanan Henry

Until next time...
