You should have started the clue with a synonym for heinous. :D

heinous and hilarious in the same clue seems incongruous, but I like it anyway.:D

Sorry, nice try, but judges rule against that answer.
We were looking for "Who is Ken Ash?" -- Ken Ash, White Sox '25, Reds '28-30.

Vehicle, toes warm --
"Who is Louis Sockalexis?," Alex? "Loose sock, a Lexus?"
Oy.

You'll take "Ancient Obscurities" for $100. ...
A: Yokel worked with wood

Who is "Hick Carpenter"?

Another unnotable 19th century player with a long career doing something other than baseball.

Butch7999 01-22-2019 12:15 PM

Correct, although there might be some argument over "unnotable." Not many other left-handed 3rd basemen
anyone can point to (with either hand), and despite that bar sinister, no mere cup-o'coffee footnote he.
From his SABR bio:
"Pete Palmer and Gary Gillette honored him with their Ex Post Facto Award as the American Association’s
Most Valuable Player in 1882. Charles F. Faber named him the league’s best third baseman
for 1882, 1883, and 1885, with his 1882 performance being the best ever recorded in the league’s history."
Just sayin'.

Another easy one, same category:
A: Swindle seven times a week
Q: ?

Peter_Spaeth 01-22-2019 03:52 PM

Con Daily.

frankbmd 01-22-2019 05:15 PM

Hick is in the vocabulary and database of every forum member only when followed by "up". Excuse me.

I want to say Cecil Espy but the Cecil part isn't working.

frankbmd 01-28-2019 08:55 AM

Cecily of York was a princess

ergo

Cecil (ESP)y is correct.

I guarantee it.

Now how about my last one

Toll Booth entry required to visit Hawaiian slum

Butch7999 01-28-2019 11:06 AM

Cookie Lavagetto.
Have never gotten through a toll booth with a cookie instead of money, but "lava ghetto" has to fill the bill.

Sorry, close, on the right track, but Cecil Espy not what we were looking for --
correct answer "Duke Esper." Duke Esper.

Peter_Spaeth 01-28-2019 11:15 AM

Toll house cookies.

Butch7999 01-28-2019 11:26 AM

I didn’t think anything could top ‘anthem singing infidel’ but ‘I can’t fly this plane-Uhlaender’ may be unsurpassable.

Thank you.:D

Butch7999 01-28-2019 03:32 PM

Ah! Didn't realize those were even part of the game.
We took "no way sack watch" to be you saying to us, "fuhgeddaboudit, dipstick,"
and "bear I can't fly this plane" to be you saying "dude, I'm too bored with this to participate any further."

Alex, let's try Wartime Widgets for 200...

Toll House cookies are a well recognized type usually. Even Peter knew that.

Lava ghetto is a gimme.

We give Butch their credit for this correct answer.

Bye bye birdie

This is not a ballplayer.

Barry on the Gong Show, you would be long gonged.

However, on a related note,

A. Co-educational rest room

Rockies for 100.
Laconic rhymes with not so much like an ice cream.

Barry, we are starting with the answer as in Jeopardy.

If Cree is in the answer, then Cree can't be in the question.

For example:

Answer: A player named Mantle.

Question: Who is Mickey Mantle?

Even Alex Trebec wouldn't let this one fly.

That's a Double Gong for you.:D

Three strikes and you're out.

Not correct. You will like the correct question though, even though purists might object.

barrysloate 01-28-2019 06:06 PM

But a lave is a bathroom, and co-educational is a cross between men and women. How about honorable mention?

Okay, this one is x-rated so you need not post the answer if you choose not to. Saying "I know it" will suffice.

A: Iron oxide pudenda.
