We had some fun with a contest last fall so why not do it again? As before, the prize for the winner is a Celtic Woman shirt. This year, I will ask trivia questions about Celtic Woman, television, movies, history and geography. The internet will be your friend. Once again, I will be the only and final judge.

The Hippodrome website says it is in downtown Baltimore. I went to a CW show there and it was in the middle of downtown Baltimore. I can't find a Gainesville, MD, in my atlas or with a internet search. So, Maloney gets the point.

This Trivia is too easy.
The contest is in December? I thought this was the contest...
Timing contest is not fun if its a race some Of us are out of the forum while someone wins.

The contest has started and I will post questions from now until early December so the winner can have the shirt before Christmas, as we did last year. People come and go from the forum all the time so many people can have a chance to score points. Those who spend more time on the forum will likely have a better chance to score points. Questions will be posted at various times of the day so I don't think the contest will favor anyone. And, the questions will get more difficult.
