	There is a Milwaukee in Wisconsin... Also there's a city called Lebanon in Pennsylvania.

	Just_Fold:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 05:28 GMT	4 points
	Milwaukee is in Wisconsin. LEbanon is also in Missouri.

	BigKuntry42:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 05:31 GMT	10 points
	Georgia also has an Albany and Columbus. I feel like this wasn't the best idea for a quiz because most city names are shared by multiple states.

	googlebird:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 05:43 GMT	4 points
	Missouri has Bowling Green and Pine Bluff.

	Neuge:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 05:44 GMT	3 points
	bowling green ohio, lebanon ohio, portland maine... really don't know what to say about milwaukee michigan.

	Ibarez:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 05:49 GMT	5 points
	I had to check to make sure there wasn't some small town in Michigan called Milwaukee...there isn't...there is only one Milwaukee and it is in Wisconsin.

	scoripyo:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 06:10 GMT	6 points
	So my living in Minnesota does me no good on this quiz.... Is there any system to the cities chosen?

	redmoose:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 06:35 GMT	6 points
	There is a Woodstock New York too.

	MrBRW:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 06:37 GMT	4 points
	@scoripyo Actually, there's an Austin in Minnesota, but this quiz is poorly executed, so it doesn't matter. Might want to correct the Milwaukee mistake and accept the multiples if you want this to be a viable quiz.

	mjones34:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 13:02 GMT	3 points
	Agreed. austin minnesota actually has 7 interstate exits....so it is not like its some podunk little town. Need to accept alternative answers or abandon the idea.

	sub:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 13:35 GMT	3 points
	There's about 8 Bowling Greens: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowling_green_%28disambiguation%29

	dancastro:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 13:41 GMT	4 points
	Tucson is misspelt. To make this quiz playable, it would be advisable to declare beforehand that only the most populated city of the same name is valid. No Portland, Maine because Portland, Oregon is larger. And only Wisconsin for Milwaukee; never mind if in other state there is some tiny village named Milwaukee.

	biskit67:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 14:58 GMT	1 point
	There is also Lebanon Indiana. It's a suburb of Indianapolis.

	rzb333:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 15:22 GMT	2 points
	There is a Lebanon in Connecticut as well.

	TheCuriousBear:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 15:22 GMT	0 points
	Okay, okay, okay. I changed it to the most POPULOUS city (Somewhere in the dinky description.) Thank you Dancastro, I used your idea.

	k81120:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 15:42 GMT	3 points
	you should clarify the dinky description, it still doesn't make very much sense until after you have gone through the quiz and get frustrated

	MikeN:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 16:04 GMT	2 points
	lebanon kentucky

	jayke:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 16:10 GMT	2 points
	Lebanon Tennessee. It's in the movie "Death proof" or "Grindhouse" as it's also called.

	coulraphobic123:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 16:59 GMT	3 points
	I think you should accept any and all states that these towns are in.

	GeoExpert:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 17:07 GMT	3 points
	This user may not appreciate your choice of where Lebanon is. http://www.sporcle.com/user/Hope/

	Fatkids101:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 17:31 GMT	3 points
	Even by your own clarification, answers are wrong. Lebanon, NH is no where close to largest Lebanon. Others might be wrong too...

	TheCuriousBear:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 17:54 GMT	0 points
	Aaaahhh!!!!!!! Okay, I'll change it. This ought'a take half an hour (for me.). But it's worth it! : )

	TheCuriousBear:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 18:16 GMT	2 points
	Fixed it.

	rk559:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 18:22 GMT	8 points
	This is not a great quiz, but I will say your username and picture make up for it completely.

	tiger03:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 18:32 GMT	0 points
	Well I was tired of trying hard with all the last ones, so I copied and pasted Texas into every one and got three... but one problem. The states that filled in as the answer weren't Texas. This is how I got Anderson, South Carolina (the least guessed answer). I don't know if this was right or wrong but I thought I'd let you know. The others were Omaha, Nebraska (i cant believe i didn't get that one, wasn't thinking) and Bend, Oregon

	TheCuriousBear:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 18:48 GMT	1 point
	Well, it's not a problem. All of those states contain those cities but I happened to put the state containing the most popular city as the default answer. So yes, you were still right.

	JWJr:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 19:55 GMT	6 points
	Anderson, Indiana (~35 miles NE of Indianapolis).

	lakerman1:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 21:52 GMT	3 points
	i thought it was a great quiz especially when because i've been to many of these cities

	bangin123:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 21:54 GMT	1 point
	there is a Utica in Michigan near detroit. You're not wrong about Milwaukee being in Michigan, theres one on the upper peninsula north of wisconsin

	ClintT13:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 23:26 GMT	-4 points
	dancastro said: "Tucson is misspelt." Just an FYI, but your spelling on 'misspelt' needs some work, too. I generally don't correct spelling and grammar errors on message boards, but this was too easy.

	uchusky815:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 23:54 GMT	3 points
	This quiz is way too easy/too hard.

	lakercub:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 00:38 GMT	4 points
	Anderson, Indiana?

	Akirash:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 01:39 GMT	0 points
	yes, half of it way too easy; half of it is way too hard. sorry curious bear - not a good quiz.

	wesman1023:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 02:11 GMT	2 points
	There is a Miami in Ohio. Actually a large college here call the University of Miami (ohio). If you watch college sports, you'll hear about it a good bit.

	TheCuriousBear:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 03:20 GMT	4 points
	Eh Don't be sorry it's not a good quiz, lol, it's my fault. Well, thanks for playing it anyway guys. This means a lot to me : ).

	dancastro:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 03:48 GMT	3 points
	@ClintT13: The edition I have of Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary accepts both "misspelt" and "misspelled" as correct forms for the past participle of the verb "misspell". Please take into account that Sporcle, like all websites, is available to anyone worldwide and not only to native English language speakers. My first language is Spanish. I hope to make myself understood, not much more than that.

	marauscher:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 05:35 GMT	3 points
	@wesman: The University of Miami (Ohio) isn't actually in a town called Miami...it's in Oxford, OH. There is also a Miami County a couple counties over, but no actual town named that.

	TJohn:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 12:31 GMT	2 points
	Austin also has the Spam Museum. It's glorious.

	InfiniteOregano:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 13:26 GMT	2 points
	This is severely random. Bullhead City? Harlingen? Rutland?

	rkavin:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 15:59 GMT	2 points
	I lived in Lebanon, NJ for about 5 years.
