I was looking forward to this game and we got way too busy for me to play. I didn't even get to look up at the game after the first question. How was the rest of the game? |

I thought the game was fairly easy myself, with the exception of two or three questions. Let's see how many of them I can recall... Well, the first question, as you know was what year George Washington was born... The place/estate where Washington was born was a producer of ... ? What animal's ivory was Washington's teeth made from? Which statement about Washington is FALSE (Died in 1799; Vice President was John Adams; Had smallpox as a child; ... ; Graduated from Princeton) First name of Washington's wife? What kind of tree does legend state that Washington chopped down? What was the name of the flag [forgot details of rest of question]... ? The name of the estate that Washington lived at was... ? This really is all I can remember. -- RWM |

I had read through his wiki page beforehand just for some brief studying, and distinctly remembered this sentence: "The set made when he became President was carved from hippopotamus and elephant ivory, held together with gold springs." Naturally, both were choices. |
