Rather opaque phone booth#4: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Oct 27, 2020
The kids today would probably ask "What's a phone booth?"#5: Donna McFarland (Baby Jade) on Oct 27, 2020
Caught me off guard with this one. Had no idea what it was. These are fun keep up the series.#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Oct 27, 2020
Kids would be more likely to say Dr. Who playing a trombone in his tardis.#7: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Oct 31, 2020 [SPOILER]
Hmm, I thought it was 76 trombones, and 105 cornets.#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Oct 31, 2020
edit: Drat, it was 110 cornets.
Thanks Kristen, I have no idea where i got 176.#9: Dave Kendall (dkthedj8) on Nov 1, 2020 [HINT]
Kids would probably ask, "What's a cornet?", too. (Answer: a smaller version of a trumpet)#10: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 1, 2020
And to those kids, I would say "go look it up" ;)#11: Christine Freer (cfreer) on Feb 3, 2021
Comment #2 was right - 75 trombones leading the parade .... the 76th was in the phone booth!#12: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Feb 3, 2021
That makes perfect sense! :)
