You're off the hook, 'cause some of that $hit wasn't in our country....now if you missed the Fawkin statue of liberty...then....duma$$ on ya.

13/16

Wife got 14/16

Was it just me or was that NYC pic really weird-looking? All the buildings seemed to be going off at different angles. It was bizarre. Was that a composite or something?

I missed Bush's Crawford Ranch, the Alamo (I focused on the spot in the middle and missed the Alamo), and Wrigley Field (meh).

[bulldozer]

14 - missed the Tower of Pisa and the space needle

same here. I got 12.

[Jeff Mason]

14. Missed the Alamo, never realized there were so many buildings around it. The history books made it sound like it was out in the middle of nowhere.

Also missed the beach one...

It was a hundred and fifty years ago.

[Leon Phelps]

13/16. The Alamo, Leaning Tower of Piza & Space Needle threw me off a bit. The shot of Wrigley Field bought back good memories of Addison & Clark streets.

[Mack]

15.

I cheated, I've seen most of those pictures before at work. :D

[denverd0n]

13 out of 16 correct. Missed Bush's ranch (does that really qualify as a "landmark"?), Copa Cabana Beach (hey! at least I knew it was a beach!), and the Alamo.

Now, what I want to know is, will anyone fess up to having gotten the Pentagon wrong? I mean, no offense, but how thick would you have to be not to recognize that!?!

[CherryokeeXJ]

13/16.

[Leon Phelps]

15/16 and I got one of the easiest ones wrong. Second guessed myself. dang.

Which one was that?

I had to think too damn hard on Niagara Falls for some reason.... (never been there)

[clemsonkrawler]

14/16. I would have done better if I had read through the thread and gotten some hints. I missed the alamo and wrigley field.

[Bauer]

You correctly answered 14 out of 16. You score is 90%


Screwed up Rio and the Space Needle :rant:

[salsashark]

Since when is the Coliseum in Greece?

I chuckled when I read that as well :)

16/16, but Copa Cabana Beach and Wrigley Field were straight up guesses.



Screwed up Rio and the Space Needle :rant:

Been checking out Google maps of Seattle or I may have missed that one as well.

[Cresso]

Leaning Tower of Pisa. The tower looked like it was leaning, but I thought it was just orthorectification (awesome word. Didn't know that one till this thread). I thought they were trying to pull a fast one.

[Jefe]

Can someone point out the alamo for my. I have never been there, but only have seen pic's from the front of it.

[longboy]

Go to google maps, and type in "The Alamo". It should find it:

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=the+alamo&ie=UTF8&ll=29.425516,-98.485141&spn=0.003294,0.005021&t=h&z=18&om=0

::edit:: I've never been, but I believe it's the building in the center of that block, with the grassy area to the west and facing "Alamo Plaza"

[ColoradoSkier]

15/16 - missed the beach in Rio.

[MtnRunner]

[Eric]

I missed the beach, the stadium, and the one that looks like the stratosphere but without the rollercoaster (smacks head, duh). 13/16 with some lucky guesses in there to boot.

[Camp]

I suck at that. I got 9/16 when I did it earlier this morning.

[Mike Boyle]

Got 14.

Missed the Piza and the ball field.

[Colorado 5.9]

15/16. Missed the Space Needdle. I didn't even see is as an answer. I saw Stratosphere & figured that was is.

Guessed right on two others.
