McLean on Jeopardy and Cash Cab

Well, we made another game show this evening!!

Yesterday it was Alex Trebek and Jeopardy, and tonight it was Ben Bailey and Cash Cab. If you've never seen Cash Cab, you should check it out...quite funny!! It's a trivia game show in Ben's taxi in NYC. While he drives people to their destinations, he asks them questions, if they get them right , they earn money, but if they get three wrong, it's three strikes and he puts them out on the street where ever they are.

The question tonight was What is the name of the neighborhood in McLean, Virginia where the CIA is located? Let's think about that for a moment...anyone have a guess, an Educated guess? The passenger contestants had to shout out for help from a stranger on the street - who happened to know that it is Langley!! Yeah!! But I bet they didn't know that it is also the name of a high school in McLean, and an Air Force Base in Hampton, VA !!

I think I'll keep a running list of McLean's mention on game shows. If you hear of any more, let us know.

Since it is said that things come in threes, think we'll get another mention tomorrow??

Keep your ears on and have a good evening!!

Wonder if Dranesville might have also been correct.
