I got 78% but I'm not sure about how a few of those questions were worded and what the actual correct answer was. Still a good fun quiz...

I did choose SA and apparently that wasn't correct. I think Dallas was what they had as the answer.


I had 55%, which was disappointing.

50%...........that's terrible.........but some of those questions were hard towards the end there. And Dallas was where the world's fair was.

[Bearkat]

58% for me.

The fair at San Antonio was a Hemisfair , not a "World's Fair".
