*pause* as the phone-a-friend googles the answer. ;)
I remember watching an episode a few years ago where it was so blatant the PaF was checking the answer. There was a full 20 second gap where the guy didn't say a thing then he just blurted the answer. They did used to be at home, after all. Now they're in the studio under supervision ;)
@MrBlackpooler (continued)... in any case, the previous commenter called ALL Americans the antithesis of intelligent on ALL subjects, not just on foreign countries. Frankly, I think it's pretty damned stupid to rail against the idiocy of Americans in general while continuing to watch our tv shows, listen to our music, eat our fast food, and wear our clothes. We don't MAKE you buy this stuff. Do you really think "@nuteronstar777" (note the spelling) has boycotted all of that?
@MrBlackpooler Having lived in 8 countries, I am pretty well aware of what people think of Americans. I am also aware that there are some pretty damned ignorant people in every country. I know that an American did not invent the computer, which is why I didn't say one did. And considering the vast majority of adult Westerners DO own a credit card and that most people under 50 own at least one pair of jeans, I don't think I was stepping out on a limb there, either. And... (continued)
@nuteronstar777 "To say people in America are intelligent is like calling Antartica the tropics lol" Wow. There are just no words for how lazy a mind you have. You'd have a hard time watching YouTube without the Americans who created it, or being on a computer running - what? Windows? Mac? - without Americans. You wearing jeans right now? Well give 'em back, then. And while you're at it, cut up your credit cards. Those are ours, too.
TheMadeMan is just trolling... As for other comments about how this question would be easy in the USA, there's really no reason to get worked up over it... I really don't think people mean anything by it, those kinds of comments always pop up across international versions of game shows. It's people sharing their culture and how things are relative to them. Still, this could be tricky even for an American. I only knew the answer because I followed "Big Brown" in 2008 b/c of the mass publicity.
@ross21085weed ha im fucking laughing at what a retarded question that was. wtf?????? i knew it when he said A. you mother fuckers in ireland must be dumber than a boat full of niggers :0 suck my dick you broad
@TheMadeMan89 Wow, you really are ignorant! This isn't the US you brain-dead bigot, we don't all have second nature knowledge of American horse racing, because it just doesn't matter across here, we're EUROPEAN!! It's like someone across in your stupid country asking you which racecourse the Grand National is held at!!
It would but very few outside of the US would know about the AMERICAN triple crown. The Kentucky Derby might ring a bell but you could probably tell me it was a NASCAR race and I'd buy it.
If you're a fellow American like me, of course it seems really easy. But if you're in the UK, just like with Steve Devlin's question, it can be tough.
Coz GOOGLE is AMERICAN and 90% of Yanks don't even know where UK is, London is London and The Home Counties Surrey,Middlesex,Essex,Bucks and Kent have many towns that come within The Greater London Region, but they are still outside London, GO BACK TO SCHOOL, I come from Brixton SW LONDON 100% LONDON not Surrey, not Middlesex, Kent or any other place, Read Kenny Noye's Road Rage book where the author keeps on saying that Kenny came from SE London (Bexley Heath) which is in Kent,
@terryphuket It is obviously a while since you were there! You are still talking about Middlesex as if it is a county! For the last time, it does not exist.
Be honest - your whole criteria for judging whether something is part of London or not comes down to it's postcode prefix! Simpleton!
As for your "Google is American" comment - if you can't see what is ludicrous about that comment then you are far too thick to converse with.
@terryphuket FFS - how many times do I have to tell you? MIDDLESEX DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE!!! IT IS NOT LIKE HERTFORDSHIRE OR SURREY! IT ONLY EXISTS TODAY PURELY AS A POSTCODE LOCATION FOR AREAS OF LONDON? Why are you even arguing about this? Just look it up.
To answer your point to Eltzadizzle by the way, Croydon, Sutton and Bromley are all in London. Basildon and Grays are in Essex. Dartford is in Kent. Any other 'controversial' areas you want to put forward?
@pmanngw what ! "Middlesex does not exist anymore" well where did it go then ?
Croydon and Sutton are in SURREY and Bromley is in KENT.
LONDON is LONDON do you really want me to give you all the postcodes ? If you really beleive Brentford is London, then I'm happy for you, if It makes you feel good. If It makes you feel like a Londoner ! CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHERE YOUR COMING FROM !
@terryphuket OMG - you really are an idiot? You seem to be basing your entire opinion of what is in London and what is not in London on whether the postcode starts with an N,W,E,SW,SE,EC or WC! What is this obsession with postcodes?! Completely wrong - parts of london have BR,TW and all sorts of postcodes! You ask where Middlesex is now - the answer is that most of it is part of LONDON now. Why don't you just type it into Google and READ about it before coming on here and spouting nonsense!!
@terryphuket Will all due respect sir, you live in Thailand. I used to live a ten minute walk from the ground (in South Ealing). Brentford, most categorically is in London.
Brentford Football Ground is in Braemor Road (Postcode TW8) MIDDLESEX !!!!
You come under Twickenham Postal Region. One thing that winds me up is Greater London People saying they are from London. How far do you want this to go ?
@terryphuket Are you serious? Are you saying everything outside the square mile of the City of London is not in London? By that reckoning, Covent Garden, Buckingham Place, Leicester Square are also outside London! It also means that there are NO football teams in London, as Tottenham, Arsenal and even Chelsea are not in London.
And as I keep saying to you, London includes parts of Middlesex - and Middlesex itself exists only for postcode reasons - it is not a real place! Look it up!!
