Montana Quiz

**heftysmokes** · 07-31-2006, 11:23 PM

I love trivia and thought some of you might like it as well. So, as promised.....

Rules.

There are 14 questions. Some are multiple part--you must answer both parts correctly for credit.
You can guess as many times as you wish. However, you cannot post more than twice in a row.
The first person to answer all questions correctly wins. (this prize will contain a few sticks; however, there will be some other goodies in there as well, so you guys with 312 trillion cigars should play, too. I guarantee you that you don't have what I'll be sending!

)

The contest will end when someone answers all the questions correctly...however, if no one gets them all right by Friday, August 4th @ 10am Mountain time, the winner will be the person who has the most correct answers. In the event of a tie, I'll pick the winner based on who I like better...kidding, kidding. If there is a tie, there will be a tiebreaker question.

Nah, drew is right. The pompey pillar was inscribed by Clark and named after Sacajaewa's (SP?) son.

It was a good contest, but it was just more like an open book test back in school.

**brian** · 08-01-2006, 12:28 AM

Yea I was thinkg while I was searching, that I should refresh the page every few minutes to see if someone had already posted the answers. Wish I had, would've saved me some time and headache. lol

Congrats Drew

**Shelby07** · 08-01-2006, 12:39 AM

Only problem is that Brent Musburger was not a native. He was born in Portland, Oregon. The only other one I could find who spent time in Butte was Matt Winer. All the other answers are the ones I came up with.
