	The death of Dale Earnhardt? I could have had 1,000 guesses and not come up with that. It's horrible for his family, but come on, the man drove in circles for a living. His death is comparable to that of the people killed on 9/11, the astronauts on the shuttle, or even Lee Harvey Oswald?

	this game should have some hints. it's just bad as it is. How am i supposed to know sammy kissed archie on february 19th. ridiculous

	burningriver:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 01:11 GMT		1 point
	I cut it down from top 20 to top 15, that gets rid of some of the harder ones

	burningriver:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 01:12 GMT		5 points
	Also, I am giving a hint (the date). You don't have to get them all right for it to be a fun quiz.

	I'm pretty sure the OJ Simpson chase was before the verdict on his trial. I might be mistaken though.

	oops, good catch. your brain works better than mine.

	Sally:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 05:12 GMT		0 points
	This could be good, but the date isn't very helpful. The year is good, but maybe add a genre or classification? Something as simple as "News" or "TV" would be great.

	It's hard to figure out the wording. For example, I tried "9/11 attacks," "twin towers attack," "terrorist attacks," etc before I finally figured out one that worked.

	Very Fun Quiz. I think the dates are fine. Let's face it that should be all you need to get most of these.

	man on the moon should be accepted

	pottedstu:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 10:18 GMT		2 points
	I'm amazed the list doesn't have the fall of the Berlin Wall. Didn't Americans care about that? Anyway, good quiz, though it should take "9/11" - can Sporcle not do answers with slashes in them?

	batmann:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 15:28 GMT		1 point
	i tried like 15 things for 9/11 and it didn't take any of them

	burningriver:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 16:59 GMT		1 point
	it takes "9/11" now, and "man on the moon"

	jakajaka:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 20:48 GMT		1 point
	"March on Washington" should be accepted for the I Have a Dream speech

	menacingcheese:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 23:07 GMT		2 points
	Good quiz. Maybe add Desert Storm for the bombing of Baghdad. Also I know you didn't write the list but I'm amazed the Berlin Wall isn't on there.

	amorsa:	Dec 18th, 2009 at 23:50 GMT		0 points
	Maybe it should be pointed out that this is a quite Amero-centric quiz also. Most people outside Canada and the States, like myself may especially struggle to get the Television show events.

	burningriver:	Dec 19th, 2009 at 00:01 GMT		1 point
	Falling of the Berlin Wall is not even in the top 100, don't know why

	bmo1616:	Dec 19th, 2009 at 02:53 GMT		1 point
	Cool quiz, but why have 85 bonus answers and not just make this "Name the top 100 moments"? and @golf04330, I'm not a NASCAR fan, but millions are, and Earnhardt was the most beloved racer in NASCAR history. Imagine watching Michael Jordan dropping dead during a game, or Hank Aaron being killed from a pitch to the head. That's what it was like for those fans.

	burningriver:	Dec 19th, 2009 at 03:26 GMT		1 point
	top 100 coming soon, also i only have about 15 bonus answers, the popular ones

	Seriously? MASH is on this??

	burningriver:	Dec 20th, 2009 at 01:53 GMT		1 point
	The final episode of MAS*H was watched by about 106 million people, the most ever for a TV series, a record which it still holds today

	Golden:	Dec 23rd, 2009 at 02:31 GMT		1 point
	MASH is a fair call. However - there is still work to do here on alternates I feel (its tough from that perspective as these events could have so many 'names'). Add 'September 11 attacks', in fact wherever you have something with '11th' you should accept the same with just '11'.

	Was the assassination of jfk not on the television?
