	These are good except for the clue about mountains. I assumed you wanted Montana, and only got Colorado because I had time to guess. Alaska has more mountains and higher mountains, as does California. Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, and many more all have mountains.

	California has Disneyland and Universal Studios. Given that (and the fact that it had both of them before Florida) it should most definitely at least be an alternative.

	Ok thanks for the input, I think I'll fix it...

	Accept abbreviations

	I disagree with the idea of accepting abbreviations. I think having to spell out the state is part of the challenge. Abbreviations would make it too easy.

	"Disney" and "Universal" apply to both Florida and California. Also, Yellowstone National Park is within three states: Wyoming, Montana and Idaho. I would suggest that you make the hints exclusive to just one state, or else allow all applicable states as answers.

	Notre Dame clue for the win.

	Disney and Universal could also be California. Having been to CA numerous times and never having been to Florida, I thought of CA first as the answer.

	Just change "Disney" to "Disneyworld." California only has Disneyland, so that should clarify the clue.

	I would suggest two things: First of all, the clues are written so that the answer should be the first thing that pops into your head. I'd think 2 or 3 minutes would suffice. Second, make another one of these with the other states please! Or, better yet, combine them. I'd love to do one of these for all 50 states!

	"Cornhuskers" is one word

	was i the only one who was really stumped by "nike"? I only got it because i had about 3 extra minutes during which i typed almost every state. I think there needs to be less time.

	I only knew the Nike clue because of a somewhat-extensive knowledge of college football. A certain team had several uniforms at their disposal because of ties to Nike.

	But I agree with you in that I think less time is warranted in this case.
