WWTBAM RPG 100

You heard his rhythm on your radio! Rob Thomas was the vocalist from Matchbox Twenty, and you’ve got $32,000!

*The camera pulls back from the Hot Seat as the audience applauds. Then, the lights go down and the studio gets darker than ever before.*

Prizes, you cannot leave here with less than $32,000. The only thing you’re risking on the next question is your chance to keep playing. So let’s get right to it, shall we? Here’s your $64,000 question.

Okay, this should be good, too. I grew up speaking French, it was one my university majors, back in my old college days. Although I suppose that isn’t technically directly related, it’s more historical in context. So let’s try to work this one backwards as well, shall we?

I tend to think C doesn’t make much sense given the years listed in the question, thought that was renamed as much post World War I. Sarajevo, maybe. Just maybe. Those years fit one of B&H, but geez if I can piece that together cold. Bucharest, wow, okay, I do think the Romanians were attacked in the 16th century. But for that matter, so was Austria, as well, in the then-ongoing Habsburg Wars.

If only you could’ve asked me why they’re crescent shape, it’s because it’s also found in the Ottoman flag. That I know cold. But it’s what I’ve got to play or act upon, you know? Let’s lock in asking the audience. Have it between three, which is a good start. Hopefully you can do me one or two better.

I do! Let’s roll, let’s lock and load. B, Vienna, final answer.

The audience tonight is either very knowledgeable about food or just hungry for a good croissant! Either way, they helped you out in a big way. You've got $64,000! Thank you, audience!

*The audience cheers wildly when the correct answer is revealed. Moments later, the lights descend.

You're just four questions away from one million dollars, and you've still got two lifelines. I'm not sure that saving FinalAnswer19 and I for the tough ones is the best strategy, but hopefully you won't even need us! Here's your $125,000 question.

Okay, so A is strictly Union referencing John Brown and Bleeding Kansas, C is specifically Confederate, as the title literally refers to that flag. B I thought was specifically, as the title notes, more about soldiers coming home. It’d be odd to have alternate versions.

Furthermore, I’m almost positive it’s D beyond eliminating the other choices, as the Union mentions, well, the Union, Confederate mentions Dixie. It also had a presidential variation for the Lincoln-Andrew Johnson ticket. Therefore I will go D, The Battle Cry of Freedom, final answer.

*The 250000$ question appears on both screens.*
