Swampcrash 2020 - WEEK EIGHT

There have somehow been 38 50-to-59-HR seasons, but no 55s.

Hack Wilson hit his 55th early in the next-to-last game of 1930, but stupidly hit another one 2 innings later.

Alright, I'm guessing a couple of you got this wrong because of the whole re-election thing. I'm aslo guessing maybe a couple of you are actually right. I'm also guessing AB will handle it.

Q2 - FROM AB: There have been 17 US presidents who at one time were Governor of a US State. Of those people, 7 were elected President while in office as Governor. Name one of the Presidents who were NOT Governor of their state at the time they were elected. (10)

CORRECT
Jimmy Carter (1) - Pruitt
William McKinley (1) - Brian
James Polk (1) - AB
Calvin Coolidge (2) - Gunpowder, Nonlinear
Ronald Reagan (8) - Bronto, Cerrano, Rass, Rex, RSL, Sabo, Syb, Wlu

INCORRECT (13)
Franklin Roosevelt - GoodKarma, LJam, Mister D, Sancarlos
Bill Clinton - Bengal, Diamond, HaulCitgo
George W Bush - BFJ, DSafe
Theodore Roosevelt - Carwash, Duff
Gerald Ford - Jerloma
Warren Harding - PDX
Andrew Jackson - Shirley
John Kennedy - NO3L
Lyndon Johnson - Chedda
Richard Nixon - Giff
Harry Truman - BSF

LEFTOVERS
Thomas Jefferson
James Monroe
Martin Van Buren
John Tyler
Grover Cleveland
Andrew Johnson

Hoover was Sec of Commerce, right? He's not listed either and I don't feel like doing the math.

And quality game Duff.

I don’t think Hoover was ever a governor, Rush.

Nice comeback. Sports questions have been my death nail this year.

So I’m sorry for the question. I’ll try to find my source but I thought it was a decent question. It definitely could have been worded better I suppose back to re-election and what not.


But the bigger issue is...isn’t that Metroid?!?!?!??

And I totally read that question wrong. But hey still didn't have to do the math!
