I am really starting to prefer these "generic" choices.

Yeah, I have to admit I'm digging these generic choices too. Even though "Cities of the World" was the topic two weeks ago, so I doubt "State Songs" will be chosen, I did immediately start writing down songs with state names in the title. That was fun.

I know Wyoming is called Wyoming, but I also learned as a kid it was Home on the Range. Go figure.

I thought all states had songs. Mine is Illlinois, Illinois which I heard once in 1968 on our 150th anniversary as a state. It was OK. My guess would be Wyoming.

That may have been the dumbest category I have ever seen. Most of the questions were a huge stretch. Smashing Pumpkins?

That was a challenging round, no doubt about it. And it looks like a big majority of players missed the final question. (Even 4 of the locations that finished in the top 5 either didn't know the answer or hedged their bets).

I thought a great Encore question would've been "all these food items are mentioned in Eat It, except:"
But since a Weird Al question had already popped up earlier in the round, we knew that eliminated all possibility of that one being asked in the encore.

I guessed well.

When I saw the preliminary standings and saw that I was top 100 I was pretty shocked.
