I knew very little about this subject, obviously. Lilly 4 years ago 9 out of 13 Rick J. 4 years ago 12/13 most were “educated” guesses. Another way to put it, I got lucky. Maybe, I should buy a lotto ticket.!!!! Patty L 4 years ago 6/13… Yikes! But who cares? ? carol 4 years ago 7 out of 13 – most guesses! How many people really care about how many people show up in New York City for the ball drop, care about how heavy the ball is and how much confetti is thrown? Some of these questions are really trivial and have no real meaning or education. Can we get quizzes that really challenge and educate us instead of trivial stuff that means nothing? Displayguy 4 years ago 7 of 13 – but who’s is from new york demarree1 4 years ago 10 out of 13 Better than Expected Kate 4 years ago 8 of 13. Not too bad. I have done worse before. Richard Lilly 4 years ago 7 out of 13 not bad for an old guy on new years. T Anderson 4 years ago Only 5/13….but then New Year’s is neve much to me because New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day are usually work days for me so don’t pay much attention to it other than making sure I put the correct date on my work. 🙂 Pam Kelly 4 years ago Got 8 out of 13…not too bad… wolverine70 4 years ago 9/13. Julia 4 years ago 9/13 not bad Veronica F 4 years ago 13/13 I have definitely watched far too many NYE shows! LJ Larsen 4 years ago 7 out of 13 also. Don’t know much about New Years.
