This is correct.Jerloma wrote:Last batter not to wear a helmet.
Bonus question: Who was the last batter to wear a helmet without flaps? (Hint: he's more famous than Bob Montgomery.)

After Tampa Bay (0) and Green Bay (105,000), what's the least-populated geographical identifier of a Big 4 sports team?

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
It is Orlando, by far.
Carolina should probably be treated like Tampa Bay too, though.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Turns out that it's really close now. About 3,000 difference. The quiz I just took was using numbers from way back in 2009 when they were closer to 30,000 apart.Rex wrote:wow!

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Yeah, I too was surprised by Buffalo and New Orleans being about the same size when I used to blog and was writing about Jacksonville being a horrible spot for a team.
The Alberta cities both have surprisingly huge populations. Edmonton and Calgary both push or exceed 1,000,000 (haven't looked in awhile).

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
None of those are right (it's Providence, so one of them was close), but you've already illustrated my point here. At first I was guessing Raleigh and Richmond, then I thought, oh, maybe it's way further north than I'm picturing. And then I look at the map and it's exactly where I was picturing it all along but it's still closer to New England.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Yeah, it's really surprising how places in North America we think of as "cold" are of similar latitude to more temperate places elsewhere. I posted something a while back about how the southernmost point in Canada has a similar latitude to Rome.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
My guess was Charleston, which is the east coast state capital closest to the latitude of Bermuda. Didn't know it was so far off the coast.

Side question: which state capital is closest to Charleston? I'm guessing Columbia.
