This one really separated the sheep from the other sheep. Oh wait, no. In fact no three people gave the same answer. Put all of the answers together to make the ultimate POG driving CD.

im in vacation in nashville tennessee with my parents in the mid/late 80s. We were not huge country music fans (so why were we there? i dont know ... my mom wanted to go to dollywood i think). Anyways, we were at the Grand Old Opry. My younger brother (probably about 10 at the time) walks over to an old man. My dad comes over and apologizes and the man is like "no i enjoy talking to people. You from around here?" My dad goes, "No, we are from New York. Do you work here?" He says, "yeah, i help clean up."

So we spoke to him for a good 20 minutes or so. He was quite friendly. My Dad asks if he minds being videotaped. The old man says, "sure no problem" So he talks to all of us on videotape. Very friendly. Finally, he says, "It has been a real pleasure speaking to you. BY the way, I am Roy Acuff." He leaves, we say to each other, "Who???"

Low and Behold, it really was Roy Acuff. We saw him on the stage at the Grand Old Opry show that night.

So to whoever chose "Wreck on the Highway" -- i met Roy Acuff .. holla

9. A country that has a king or queen other than England

The Nobel prize ceremony was last month, so it is fresh in some of your memories. The French revolution took place over 300 years ago. Not so fresh.

I expected to see some people answer Canada or Australia, especially with the proximity to questions 8 and 10. But no, the most popular answer for this one was America's other ally in the war on tourism,

After 10 rounds we have a clear leader in jjp and a second place in fmx. I can tell you right now that there were clear winners for both of the remaining questions, and in order to challenge for the top few places you needed to get both of them correct.

12. A model of helicopter

Here is the distribution of answers, without the actual answers:

??? 12
??? 5
??? 3
??? 2
??? 1
??? 1

This means that we have only 3 possible winners:

The only way for Kokiri to win is if he got the number one answer, fmx did not get the number one answer, and jjp got only one point. In that case he would share the spoils with jjp.

Fmxda can win if he got the number one answer, and jjp slipped up.

If anything else happens, jjp will win.

Lets see what actually happened:

As for the caboose:

Our House answered Bell 206, which means Kokiri is out of contention for the top prize.

PyramidScheme answered A Cute One(wtf)

However no one else answered Bell 206. So Our House scoops the caboose with 66 points, and jjp finishes on 126 points.
