I think if we made it multiple choice it would be easier to guess the correct answer. However, I probably would not find as much enjoyment in finding the right answer (or dismay at the wrong one.)

Correct Answer for Question #23: Weber State University
Did my Glacier National Park anecdote throw a couple of you? That wasn't part of the hint, so use with caution. She worked at Yellowstone over the summer and we drove up to Glacier for a few days.
Final question coming up. It will be up all weekend.
At this time I am not planning on running the game in April. There just isn't enough participation: 15 of 23 questions so far this round have received four or fewer responses.
