Brian Day 23 vs Ben

0-3 vs Ben this season across LL and LLL, 3/6 today gives me a fighting shot.  I'm 5th in Sierra C with no real chance of promotion or relegation, so I can coast the rest of the season and look forward to the Rock and Roll minileague

1) Plantagenet.  Knew this from the recent Pennsylvania One-Day, "11.  What two cities, located approximately 25 miles apart in South Central Pennsylvania, are appropriately nicknamed the White Rose City and the Red Rose City?​", leading me to a War of the Roses wikihole. 1/1

2) Pete the Cat. The only shows I've seen listed on PBS are Pete the Cat and Daniel Tiger.  Never heard of Nature Cat. Worried about giving Ben a 3, but I think PBS is much less watched than NickJr and Disney Jr.  2/3

3) Juule.  I think this has become well-known as the newest thing that will corrupt and destroy your children.  2/1

4) Rip Van Winkle.  'legendary master of repose' makes it a gimme, but very worried it's only a gimme for Americans. Took the risk with 0/0

5) mountains.  no clue.  3/2

6) Coucesceau.  no clue 1/2


3(3)-3(3) tie, well done Ben.  My rip van winkle 0 paid off.  I took you for a tennis guy, but there weren't esoteric enough questions in the data set to judge your tennis knowledge (yes, as an ugly American I think Halep is esoteric.)
