He might have been the Mad Bomber but in the Bay Area Charlie O'Connell was THE Bomber. Greatest athlete in the history of sports. And skating with a Marlboro at times.

Stumped you guys again. Ossie Schectman scored the first NBA basket.

Chuck Connors.  Kidding….

Guess 2 - Orson Wells.

I looked, so I won’t say. It’s not who I expected.  Interestingly, they won it for the same movie.

There are 16 EGOT winners (winners of an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony).  Two have also won a Pulitzer Prize.  Who were they?

One of the EGOT winners has also won a Razzie, for worst original song. Who?

(Note, I am only including the competitive award winners, so Liza Minnelli, who won two Razzies for worst actress doesn’t count, since her Grammy was for a Grammy Legend award, which is non-competitive.

No, for two different movies, which is even more impressive.

My bad. She was nominated, but didn’t win the Best Actress award for the movie she won best screenplay.

Fun fact, she was nominated for best actress and best supporting actress in the same year!

BC’s hint about the dual acting nomination in the same year gave it away... Emma Thompson.

Phogge got it, though technically it’s Oscar Hammerstein II, the composer and playwright, not his grandfather Oscar Hammerstein I, the businessman.

Oscar II won, coincidentally enough, two Oscars.

Ok, next question. The Tony award is named after Antionette Perry (it is the Antionette Perry Award for Excellence in Broadway Theatre). How many Antoinette’s have won it?

Bob's Q... Jessica Chastain?

BC... I think Tony Shaloub won one but I bet nobody named Antionette has won.

I have no idea but has an Emmy won an Emmy?

I'll bet there are no Baftas winning the award in the UK. Likewise anybody named Nobel won the prize?
