Looks like Rock Hudson and Freddy Mercury are the big two for the first question (thank god I didn’t say Liberace) – do you think there’s a generational difference?

Maybe. I was going back and forth between those two. Actually, my first FIRST thought was Arthur Ashe but I thought no one would say him…

ETA: I’m 24. I mainly chose Mercury because I figured we’d have a lot of Queen fans here.

47

I really thought John Lennon for #2 was going to be close to a conch. I guess it is because it happened in the USA is the reason behind the low responses.

I think it is the most famous successful assassination in my lifetime.

49

I think of that as a murder, not an assassination. I guess I only use “assassination” for political figures.

I was waffling between Rock Hudson and Freddie Mercury. I remember when the Rock Hudson news came out it was a big deal because he was, as I remember it, the first “big name” to die of AIDS. So, while Mercury’s death meant more to me, Hudson’s was the first I thought of. I’m 37.
