Haha I started at number one and my dad was like why not start at the bottom instead? By the time you get down to 20 or so you'll give up. I was like yea ok w/e. So I look up number 30 and haha wow. Santiago, Chile was the right one. Pretty interesting. ^_^.Eric B wrote:D'Oh! That's what I get for not going all the way down to #30 on the list! I didn't think Colombia had that kind of snowfall...Hostrauser wrote:Correct Answer for Question #7: Santiago, Chile

Of course, for some reason, Washington only appears on the ONE poll I didn't check for crew. What a weird sport. The BCS is less confusing.Hostrauser wrote:Hint: one of the nation's top schools for rowing (crew).

I'm surprised Washington would have been left off of any rowing poll, considering how much they've dominated the sport over the years. Their women's crew was undefeated something like 5-6 years straight in the 1980s.
TRIVIA QUESTION #9
Name this Asian body of water, and it's location (country):
Hint #1: I don't think any Olympic rowing events will be held here.
Hint #2: The fact that I asked for location might possibly indicate that this body of water could have a common name (well, common for that part of Asia) that can be found in multiple countries. Maybe.
