Lilly 4 years ago Got 4 out of 11. Chris 4 years ago 4 of 11 and all lucky guesses Patty LaCosse 4 years ago Eeeeekkkkk 2/11! I didn’t even guess very well!?? Gail 4 years ago Same here…my guessing was way off. 2/11 Hahaha David P. Minato 4 years ago Total guessing netted seven correct. Rick J. 4 years ago 7/11 all guesses. kinda of a lucky day. Maybe I should buy a lotto ticket? CAR 4 years ago 2 correct! ? i do not enjoy these kind of quizzes where you are not using knowledge, but guesses. #3 was vague- in the state? city? nation? Kate 4 years ago Well, I got 3/11 (yikes) all guesses. So, I guess I fit in the rest here. Jan13 4 years ago All guesses, only 4 right. Sorry, but never heard of the cathedral.. Magicjax 4 years ago 4 of 11 36%, looks like I failed too, that is unless you’re graded on a curve, then we all passed unless you got zero correct. Truth Manhattan 4 years ago “I’ll take a different category for $100, Alex.” Billj 4 years ago who cares George Giovanni 4 years ago Knew nothing, guessed 7 of 11! Kay 4 years ago I’ve found it interesting to read some information about these places I’m not familiar with before taking the quiz. I do better on the quizzes and have learned something new. Rita J. 4 years ago 3 of 11. I have never heard of it. And, apparently, I didn’t guess well. Barbara 4 years ago This was a stupid topic for quiz. Why would anyone outside of St. Paul know anything about a cathedral there? Come on, quiz writers! Let’s have quizzes that are more relevant to AMAC members all over the country. ? Julia 4 years ago 3/11 all guesses I don’t feel so bad after reading the comments. Bil 4 years ago Never been to Mn. and am not a catholic. never heard of this place until today’s quiz. Guessed at all 11 and got 3 right. Wont be going to Vegas soon. T Anderson 4 years ago 3 right. From MN, but not very knowledgeable about Minneapolis/St. Pau area. Daryl 4 years ago Do the people who write these quizzes ever stop to consider that probably 95% of the people taking the quiz don’t have a clue about the quiz topic? The only people who would do well in these types of quizzes are people from St Paul and maybe a smattering of Catholics across the country. This is about the third or fourth demographic specific quiz in recent months. I agree with Barbara, lets start doing a better job in presenting a quiz applicable to the majority of your audience. Geo 4 years ago i’M LOOKING FORWARD TO A QUIZ ON THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH OF THEODOSIA, MISSSOURI (eg, What year was the great fire?) Geo 4 years ago 5 out of 11. Wow! that is better than expected for WAG’s. CAP 4 years ago Next weeks quiz —– Calico Ghost Town. Why not? Almost nobody knows about that place either. Fyi Guy 4 years ago Guessed 4/11. Hey, I might not know anything about St. Paul but I bet I’ll get 11/11 if I were to take the quiz again. Knowledge is “knowing” even for those who are complaining about the quiz’s content. Slymet 4 years ago All were guesses. I have never been there and I don’t think this is common knowledge. How many St. Paulians would be familiar with these questions. I wonder. Only 4 right. Car5154 4 years ago GEEEEEEEEZE everybody!! Chill OUT! We don’t live in a National Park or in most of these cities in these quizzes, either, yet no one complains so why this one??? CHILL OUT and enjoy or DONT DO THE QUIZ!! wpDiscuz330Would love your thoughts, please comment.x()x| ReplyInsert Login Login Join Renew Member Benefits Newsline Member Benefits Advocacy Our Actions About Advocacy Issues Get Involved Weekly Update Annual Report Find Your Representative AMAC App Better for America Podcast Book Club AMAC Blog FAQ About Us Overview Our Team Our Stance on Key Issues Magazine Medicare Games Voice Your Opinion in AMAC Polls AMAC in the Media AMAC Action AMAC Foundation Social Security Guarantee Prime Directives Brief Prime Directives Details Sweepstakes Contact Advertise with AMAC Terms & Conditions Privacy Policy
