got all 50. 49 in the first 5 minutes. Wisconsin came to me in the last 5 seconds. It helped to review college conferences like the Big 10 and the Big 12 to get all the flyover states - assuming you can name all the schools in each conference of course. Shocking that given Wisconsin's prominence in the basketball poll this season that I could remember it until the final ticks.

AGM says that she was able to nail this & remember all 50 because she memorized the nerdiest song ever. It goes something like...

"50 Nifty united states from 13 original colonies. "

you will note the rhyming of this

"50 nifty stars on the flag that billows so beautifully in the breeze."

This is great.

The rest is here:

Craziness. She notes that hers had a part that went...

"doot doot doot" with some jazz hands (I AM TYPING THIS AS SHE SPEAKS) and some other parts that the link I supplied missed. You get the idea.

ok time for bed. We are watching "Showtime at the Apollo".

PS. At the end, it went something like: "Each one is great, in our collective, objective unbiased opinion, Maryland is the best!"
