I forgot about Maddie Poppe. Given that she is from Iowa, I always try to keep her in mind here.

Well, that sucked. And by that, I mean my middling to poor performance.

CLT, thanks as always for a fun TD! It helped that I was able to sneak into a tie for 3rd for a rare podium visit. Had I not flubbed the A.J. Foyt bonus (Mario Andretti!), I could have shared 2nd place instead of 3rd. But no complaints here!

I am amazed. From barely escaping the basement on the last TD to first place? I should demand a recount.

Thanks for the TD.

My final score was 52. After last report, I gave the wrong answer of bloemfontein; took three with F-22; took eight with the Sheep of Cruel Intentions; took three with Stevie Wonder; and then got - 3 for getting 3 bonus answers correct.
