That was fun. I made the mistake of doing this at work (didn't realize how long it was) ... was interrupted twice, only got 22 before time ran out, but I don't think I would have got more than another 3 or 4. I think I went through 29 teams before figuring out which had the same 4 letters.It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

That dang Walter Johnson one got me. I kept thinking of old timey things he could've thrown across a river - cannonball, musket ball, flag pole - never would have guessed the correct answer.
Almost lost the kids toy one on spelling, realized right at the end that I might have the wrong spelling.
I thought it was one of the quizzes where you only got one guess so I took way too long at the beginning. Luckily it didn't come back to bite me, I still had over a minute before I gave up on the Johnson question.

That and the two teens. I shorted one their names a silent letter then kept trying to fix the other one. I flat didn't know the R&R HoF question. I did get the expansion team question but not the four letter one.
My favorite was the tombstone question. I didn't know that.
