RE: Tuesday Trivia CV , Question One

The Boston Patriots last played a game in Boston in 1970.*

It is true that if you GoogleMap Gilette Stadium to the _largest_ scale and progress to a map which clearly shows an area within the cit limits of Boston MA the map does not clearly indicate that you aee any area eithin Providence RI.

However: I can think of three routes which would get you from: The corner of Beacon and Park. (The Massachuseets State House) to Gillette Stadium

More to follow*

I suspect that whichever route one uses it would be faster to drive from a similar spot near the Rhode Island State House.

It is probable that visiting teams fly into and out of T. F. Green Airpoert (Providence) rather than Logan.
It is likly that teams stay in hotels that are not in the city of Boston.

It is clear that Bosyon is incorrect.

Glendale, Arizona? that is less clear.

It is clear that one might get wrong answers from people who are unaware that Austim is the Capital of Texas or that
Lansing is the Capital of Michigan

* More to come implies Please do not underpost.

I would say it is equally as clear that those who post on this board/participate in TT would not be unaware of either of those two facts.

Autism is the capital of Texas? I could have sworn it was Epilepsy.

Wow! My cousin's going to be surprised! He was pretty sure he worked in Alzheimer's.

No, wait, that's me! I work with Alzheimer's clients! But not in Autism, Texas, althought that sounds like fun...
