BO I knew that there was a place with the same or similar name stateside that was all fancy smancy, so I went with SPA. It seems that the fancy smancy place in France is a Royal Palace. When I first read the question, I precalled hotel in Florida, then spent 2-3 seconds trying to rearrange the choices letters to spell out "fancy hotel on South Beach" before settling on "spa". |

BABY FACED NELSON was gunned down in Ohio, not Machine Gun Kelly. I think the movie about Dillinger from a few years back opens with Nelson getting killed running through the woods in Ohio. Shoulda got this one right... |

Meridian Hill Park is in Washington, DC. It is not the site of the Greenwich Observatory, nor does it contain any portion of the Prime Meridian. Ironically, I scored exactly zero degrees of longitude for this question |
