Aren’t we supposed to answer all Feud questions off the top of our heads, without resort to Wikipedia or other external resources? Ideally it’d be within the 20 second time limit like on the TV show, but honestly I don’t time myself (I often answer a few questions, go do other things and then finish off later).

I picked one that I did recall and then looked it up. I was just providing the link if he wanted to see a pretty complete list of known kids of Cletus. I was assuming that people would answer without reading the thread first and thought it was an interesting link.
