Botticelli, Round 10

The fact that I missed that he was already mentioned automatically disqualifies me for a DQ. In fact, such a boneheaded move should disqualify me from the thread!

Did you play 3rd base for the Dodgers?

Don’t be so hard on yourself. :slight_smile: Stick around!

Kid_A, no, I am not (Harry) Arthur “Cookie” Lavagetto.

Darryl, the answer is no (for your indirect question, I was thinking of either Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde or The Hollow Man).

AL is

  • not American
  • not alive
  • was alive in the 20th century
  • male
  • appeared on TV
  • not an entertainer
  • Caucasian
  • not an athlete

OK…I was actually thinking of Andy Laroche.

Adam’s brother.

Were you a host of an extremely long running radio/televison show?

No, I’m not Art Linkletter.

Were you the first man to walk in space?

Did a family friend ever tell a story to you and your sisters in a rowboat?

Did you hang out with Sissy, Missy, and Justice?

Were you lead singer of a band who “broke out” at Woodstock?

No, I’m not Alexei Leonov, Alice Liddell, or Ali Larter.

You got me. Ask a DQ.

Were you lead singer of a band who “broke out” at Woodstock?
Alvin Lee of Ten Years After with the song “I’m Going Home”.

DQ: Are you a European?

Yes.

AL is

  • not American
  • not alive
  • was alive in the 20th century
  • male
  • appeared on TV
  • not an entertainer
  • Caucasian
  • not an athlete
  • European

Are you the William Henry Harrison of popes?

You got me!

I’m Albino Luciani, better known as Pope John Paul I (1912-1978), whose pontificate lasted just 33 days in late 1978.

Well done, Darryl Lict!

HA! I had an inkling that I might be right. John Paul I satisfied all the DQ criteria plus he had all the desirable demographics for a difficult Botticelli candidate. An obscure first name (what the hell, was he that white when he was born?) plus a real name that nobody knows.
