I got 14 right! How about you?

I got one right.

"The lion sleeps tonight"

And I remember when we had that motto game I remembered "What keeps a licking & keeps on ticking"

That was cool.

I missed Q-1 got all the rest.

8 - if bras is an acceptable answer for #11.

Hehe...not bad for a youngin like me

I got 5. I was close on one but not quite....

13 right here... I was born in the late 70s am I young or old??

13 right here too (Bra is not really accaptable - the response is draft card. Bras were burnt by feminists (see earlier thread, lol) at the US Miss Ameruca pagent - had nothing to do with Vietnam. I never watched the Lone Ranger so got that wrong. Did not know the Nestles one either, sigh!! I was thinking a specefic bar and we have different i=ones in Canada - OK, nuff whining, lol
!!And I am nowhere near being a senior , this is just basic info! My mom is a senior and she would not know most of this stuff so that comment puzzles me.

I got 6 right.

13 here! That was fun!

I got 13 too! Wait, does that mean I'm not a youngster? Gasp!

9. Do I pass?

14. I missed the Lone Ranger, because we only had one TV channel growing up, and it didn't carry that show.

That Nestles jingle was on Canadian tv as well, I knew that one. Even though the our candy bars are different, Nestles Chocolate was the same.

DH got 10 out of 15, not bad for a Kiwi who's never seen most of these shows, just seen the promos for the famous bits.

I got 14-1/2 right - forgot Freddie the Freeloader.

Does this make me a senior citizen? LOL

I got all 15 right and I'm 47.

I ALMOST did not get that one right! For some reason, a voice inside my head kept telling me "a silver bullet"!

I didn't know that The reason the "music Died" was Buddy Holly's death! All I know of the song was the Drove the Chevy to the Levy and I knew that had to be the civil rights workers death.

Guess you are an old fogey too - just like me!

I got 14 out of 15. I didn't know the one about Route 66 although I can vaguely remember it on the TV. I think I must've been a tad young. Checking IMDB I see it ran 'til 1964 so I would've been 6? 7? when it went off the air.

I missed 3, but I got the rest of them correct.

I got 10 right, ugh..
