On the drive from here to Jackson Hole, we cross between Wyoming and Idaho three times, all on paved roads.Square Rob wrote: ↑Thu Feb 16, 2023 11:23 am Wyo and Idaho? This should be wrong, because I’ve been on a paved road across that border, but there’s no major road.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Is it Colorado and Oklahoma? Or maybe Colorado and Texas? Somewhere down there is a very short overlap between states.
Edit: Nope.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
I didn't think that would be right, I was just doing process of elimination. Just looked and the border is way smaller than I would have guessed.

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
I think the answer needs to be revisited, because of Artificial Island.
Wikipedia wrote:The island is geographically unusual since it contains one of two tiny pene-exclaves of the state of Delaware, which is created by the Delaware-New Jersey land border crossing the northern tip of the island, an area that is completely cut off from the rest of Delaware across the Delaware River to the west, and has no road connections to it. New Jersey is separated from Delaware by the Delaware River except for these two areas, which has a land border. The only land access to this exclave at the north tip of the island is from New Jersey.
How do you all get your death notices since I left?

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Not only that, but South Dakota is kind of a dick about it. Road runs right towards the border, then due north/south. Jackasses. Er...jackrabbits?

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Yeah I think I probably should have phrased the question, "What two states share a land border but aren't connected by a paved road?"Reaper wrote: ↑Thu Feb 16, 2023 12:55 pmI think the answer needs to be revisited, because of Artificial Island.

TRIVIA QUESTION
In the respective common draft eras
(NBA: 1966, NFL: 1967), which program has more 1st round draft picks:
Duke Men's Basketball or Notre Dame Football?
I felt aswirl with warm secretions.
Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
I guessed that right. It's probably harder if you reverse it - Duke football vs ND basketball.

Rutgers?
Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
It's not the answer I was looking for, it it does count it's ambiguous as to whether it would be the first. So I'm gonna say no.
I guess the Federal Government can't really grant itself land?

Re: Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia
Sounds like it's more of an opinion from Rutgers, because while it was formed prior to the answer I'm seeking, it did not become a land-grant school until the 1860s.
