	Quinnipiac University shouldn't be listed under New Haven. It's located in Hamden.

	College Freshman strikes again as the thumbnail.

	Having five of the same in a row really scuppered random guesswork!

	monstro:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 21:14 GMT	10 points
	I hate it when I get below 50% on a quiz with only two answers.

	Ilbb657:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 21:18 GMT	1 point
	I hav no idea how I got the top and bottom 4 most guessed each

	steeltown:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 21:23 GMT	20 points
	I had to guess Crookston as a prison, it was just too tempting.

	Hejman:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 21:24 GMT	5 points
	@Steeltown- That's why I included it!

	TimeAndTide:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 21:29 GMT	3 points
	@Euan27: If the guesswork really was random, then it shouldn't matter how many in a row were of the same type. Each guess should be entirely independent of what came before it.

	I was hoping to see my college's city (Terre Haute, IN) on the list, since it has both. :)

	snakeyd:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 22:12 GMT	3 points
	mashed the c and p letter keys, probs still got more than I would have from actually guessing (british)

	Wyoming native with an interesting story re: Wyoming. The towns of Cheyenne, Laramie and Rawlins drew lots, way long ago, to see who would get the capitol, the university and the prison. The winner picked the capitol. The town that drew second picked the prison, while the loser was saddled with the university. (Spoiler free ;)) At the time, apparently, the prison seemed like a much more stable industry. Funny how things work out.

	Penn St... State Pen... What's the difference?

	MrMN:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 23:23 GMT	1 point
	Good thing I'm from Minnesota, or I might have fallen for CROOKston too. Good quiz. Too much time

	ScriptIdentity:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 00:09 GMT	13 points
	I'm confused. Is there a difference between "college" and "prison"?

	harryfan530:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 01:17 GMT	1 point
	The first 9 were college for me.

	JaguarGator9:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 01:41 GMT	3 points
	Anyone else find it weird that LYNCHburg was a college and not a prison?

	FortSaluki:	Apr 14th, 2012 at 02:28 GMT	19 points
	@ScriptIdentity, yes there is a difference, prisoners learn more because there is less drinking.

	Whew! I'm just glad I got Hejman's hometown right!

	this was pretty easy for any American who has ever even watched NCAA Football or Basketball (not even a fan)...Just go down the list and pick the college towns which most were gimme's, pick prisons for the leftovers and you get 99% percentile. Fun idea though

	good thing i go to Crookston and know that UMC is there. Also, New Haven, CT has the University of New Haven.

	@ScottLA Three fine colleges and the federal death row. Good stuff.
