11 question trivia...

I got 9 or more, but it doesn't tell you which ones you missed or what the correct answers are.

Oldest stadium?

Yankee Stadium
Wrigley
Dodger Stadium
Fenway

So obviously it's not Yankee Stadium and I am 99% sure rhat the other three are, in fact, the 3 oldest. My guess is Wrigley.

My guess is wrigley.  I didn't get to finish before I had to jump on the phone.

We both missed it. I was right about those 3 being the oldest, though.

Fenway was built in 1912
Wrigley in 1914
Dodger Stadium in 1962.

I've been to 2/3 and hope to go to Fenway in the next few years.

My gut was Fenway but talked myself into thinking wrigley because of lights, I have no idea why though.  Lol. I guess once I started thinking I just "felt" more history at wrigley than Fenway. 

I will be wrong again today though

I also scored 9 or more but wasn't told what I missed......if any since it says "or more". I think it is just another one of those farce test where you could retake it and deliberately give the wrong answers and still score the same. Hmmmm...........now that I think about it. lol

Btw, being a Red Sox fan I knew Fenway was the oldest. yay me...... :P


went back and retook it and tried to miss every question. Think I succeeded as this time it said I scored 0-4 correctly and was a laid back fan. lol

I aced it.  Yea.

How many tries did it take using Hogville lingo?  ;)

Aced it, first try. I actually got my 3 guesses right.

Nah, I tried your theory, you can get a 0-4.

I aced it first try as well.  The only one I really guessed on was Griffey because I wasn't positive he won it back to back.  I thought the Bo question might be a trick question, but went with my gut and got it right.

I thought the exact same thing on the Bo question. They [CENSORED] with my head on that one.
