The Feud: Spring!!! [Game Over]

Object of the game:
Give the most popular answer for each category.

Rules:

  1. No reading the thread before answering. This is on the honor system.
  2. Formatting rules must be followed (see below).
  3. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.
  4. Google (etc.) is allowed, if you desire.
  5. The game will end with 50 entrants, or when I get time to score it.
  6. There is no Rule 6.
  7. Special Rules for this particular Feud: None

Formatting rules:
To make semi-automated scoring possible, and my job easier, make you post look exactly like this:

  1. answer
  2. answer
  3. answer
  4. answer

No double spacing, do not use the “list” function, no smilies, no urls, no periods, no quote marks, and no punctuation if it is not necessary. Put “pass” if you want to leave an answer blank. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it AFTER THE LIST! If you don’t format like this, your answers might be DISQUALIFIED.

Scoring:
With 50 entrants, an answer with a match is worth 2x the number of people matching it. If 4 people match, they each get 8 points for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
Formula: Score = 100 / (# of entrants) x (# of matches)

Good luck!

If any of you have ideas for Feuds -and would like me to score them- PM me. If anyone wants to run their own Feud, feel free. I will help any way I can.

Read the rules!
Special Rules for this particular Feud: None

  1. Name a non-organic harbinger of spring.
    (as in no birds or flowers or the like - I’m looking for things like “football season” for fall, or “Christmas stuff starts being advertised” for winter.)
  2. Name something organic that is a harbinger of spring, besides birds or flowers.
  3. Name a song that mentions spring.
  4. Name something you’d throw out in a bout of spring cleaning.
  5. Besides a bed, name something that has a spring.
  6. Besides Springfield, name a city with “spring” in its name. Don’t include the state.
  7. In Fahrenheit degrees, guess what the average temperature is in North America in May. (Don’t use a degree symbol or the word degree. Just type a number - don’t spell out the number.)
  8. Name something a person of either gender might wear in spring.
  9. Name a fruit or vegetable that signifies spring to you.
  10. Besides the park, name a generic place you like to go in spring.
