[brucetmoose]

Got really lucky on a few - 16 out of 18

I lucked out on some of the mayor questions and others I knew.

 

[savd4one]

yeah, i got a 16 too - i didn't know the pork roll and the elephant statue questions

 

[Hamsterdiesel]

I do remember, I DO!

Awesome - I got a 17!

I just couldn't remember the sex of that damn elephant!
I saw her on TV once...ya think the pink would have given it away...oh well...


I miss little 'Hurricane' ... LoL...

I worked with a 10 time winning Mummers Captain for 7 years...miss them too (i think...LoL... )

Go Hog Island!

17 out of 18! The Bristol one got me. But I did move away 15 years ago .

17 out of 18 - I moved away in the 7th grade and don't have a clue about the mayors in Philly since Frank Rizzo. Looking forward to real hoagies though!

Oh yeah, you can get pork roll at Shop Rite in southern New England - so I never left that behind. You can take the kid out of Philly ...

Well my family left PA in '76 - I don't think cholesterol had been invented yet back then.
