Whew boy, those are some -wild- guesses! 😃 Intriguing idea for the fued, now gotta wait to see how I do. Even if you know the “correct” answer (age-wise), that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be the top vote getter! 😉 And that’s what makes it so fun (and frustrating!!).

11. I know he was born in 1917, and hope many other players do as well

12. Again, I’m hoping I’m not the only one aware of her actual year of birth

13. I believe he and Marilyn were born the same year

I missed it by one. I knew what year he was elected and I knew he was 42.

The other one I should have known was Diana Spencer. Somehow I hadn’t realized how close she was to my age. If I had realized she was only three months older than me, this one would have been a “gimme”. (Although I suppose if I had known, I wouldn’t have used her in the interest of fairness.)

The winning score will be the lowest winning score ever.

I know #4 for sure! He was born two days before my mother.

Everything else was a guess.
