Hi And Welcome BAT OUTTAHECK, Thanks for joining in and right away you got a lot right! one problem though. Brady911 answered #16 first with "Sanford and son", Which is half of the correct answer. and you answered LaWanda Page, which is also correct, so I will give you both credit, ok?
P.S Thank you for your kind words, I love trivia, but this thread is not just for my trivia, please add some of your own if you wish.
