Are you ready to take the quiz?
As I explained yesterday, I was on the shuttle bus to our Business After Hours, which was held out at the Ojibwa Casino's event center in Harvey. Along the way, I asked everyone in the bus nine (what I thought were rather easy) questions and ended up giving out a TON of prizes. And while I don't have any prizes left to give you (sorry about that!) here's the quiz. Imagine you're riding out from downtown Marquette to the intersection of US-41 & M-28 as I'm asking each of them, and see how well you do.
Answers tomorrow!
The quiz:
1--When they built the US-41 bypass in 1963, they built it over the course of which body of water?
2—(As we drove past things like Genessee Street and Huron Mountain Bread Company) The area through which we're passing right now is commonly known as which Marquette neighborhood?
3--True or false—George Shiras never actually lived full time in Marquette.
4--As we pass the Carp River, that big thing on the side of the road is a re-creation of what kind of structure?
5--That little building out in front of the prison used to be what?
6--How old is Lake Superior? When was it formed? 12 million years ago? 120,000 years ago? 12,000 years ago?
7--True or false—By population, Chocolay Township is the second biggest place in Marquette County.
8--Charles T Harvey (who founded and named the village of Harvey) was instrumental in designing and building the first version of which iconic UP structure?
9--True or False—the little hamlet of Green Garden, right down the road from the intersection of 41 & 28, was the birthplace of a professional wrestling champion.
