I wondered about that answer also. I always thought it was the haze too.

From a fellow southerner, but must challenge you on answer for # 19...... purty shure it should be "haze or mist".

Some Northern college type probably figured the haze was caused by pollen.

Haze or mist counts as a correct answer for #19

24 1/2 right (creditted "43" for petty for the half.

my 24 includes two where I'll beg to differ with posted answers: I credited "Destin FL and enviorns" as reasonable redneck riveira answer. also on blue ridge why blue - I live 4 miles from the blue ridge, see it every day. it's blue much of the winter when there's no pollen. it's more generally water haze and hazy days that produce the blue, not pollen.

at 3 points each plus guess I rate a doublewide and 428 cobrajet!

Will you be grading us on the curve? Will this score effect our final grade?

My Daddy always said that a steer is a bull that didn't quite make it over the barb wire fence.

(bet that made your butt pucker)

Although us Yanks may not know as many answers as a Southerner, at least we can follow directions. :-)

4) What university does Bill Dance root for?
4) University of Tennessee

You might want to double check that. I believe it's University of Texas.
