Encore Question of November 6, 2000.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm in 5th place playing with Richard BERGIE and Bill MADDOG. My game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp....4000/5000...9th/16...I'm tied for 9th and there is a huge 8 way tie for 1st. OnBeat...12000/14000...9th/15...KELLY, OLE JR and JARVIS hold lead with 13500. JukeBox...17264/20000...10th/15...KELLY holds lead at 19441. Triviaoke...23967/28000...5th/15...I win this round to close in on the leaders.
These choices look like this will be before the Rock era of music. Well let's see it anyway...
Question:...Who recorded the 1956 hit "Allegheny Moon" for Mercury Records?
Hey, I know that song...I've seen it on one of those record offers. Well that means I know the first six words of it before the commercial went off to the next song. I think it was Patti Page herself doing the narration. I could imagine any of them singing it but chose Patti Page.
Correct Answer:...4. Patti Page
[NTN extra fact:..."Mama From The Train" was Page's second entry on Billboard's Hot 100 list that year].
I'm right and finish with 35951 points. I rise to 2nd place at the bar as The Regulars must have split there answers. I earn 3000 Players Plus points for earning this week's required 20000 points. The individual rankings in North America are not displayed but I found the Top 100 later in the week at the NTN site. I finished 25th in North America. The bar is 2nd in North America with a 35621 average. (The 100th ranked bar only had a 16447 average).
Here's how the rest of the bar did: Player pre-Encore Final Rank KELLY 25466 x 12733 JARVIS 25438 x 12719 OLE JR 25388 38082 6th places 4th on our bar's Hall Of Fame board. VIKING 24155 x 12077 ROCKET 23967 35951 25th IMSLOW 23952 x 11976 ENIGMA 23749 35623 29th MR FROG 23574 x 11787 MOLSON 23505 35257 34th ELVIS 22130 33195 62nd BERGIE 22068 x 11034 MADDOG 19852 29778 OHYEAH 18577 x 9289 FCC 14496 x 7248
