Fortnight 12 – Day 3 Questions
Question #1
There are two players missing from this otherwise complete list that spans the years 1990 to 2000, and between them they're arguably responsible for the two most iconic examples of what the list represents. (One of the players actually appears on the list twice.) Name both.
Paris McCurdy, Rick Fox, Tate George, Steve Smith, James Forrest, Tyus Edney, Don Reid, Richard (Rip) Hamilton, Mike Miller.
Question #2
In this still shot from a World of Warcraft video released in 2005 (and likely staged), a group of players in the midst of making a battle plan have just been interrupted by a returning player who decides to charge headlong into the fray. What two words did this player shout as he left his teammates behind?

Question #3
For years, Jay Haas held the record for most appearances at a men’s major without a win, notching 87 winless attempts between 1974 and 2008. Name the golfer who tied him in that category at the 2021 U.S. Open, and moved into first place at the Open Championship.
Question #4
Fill in the blank with the missing word, which is derived from the name of a river that flowed through, or formed the border of, all three of the nations referenced later in the paragraph.
“The ______ School of football is a modification of the 2–3–5 formation in which the centre forward plays in a more withdrawn position. As played by the Austrians, Czechoslovaks and Hungarians in the 1920s, it was taken to its peak by the Austrians in the 1930s. It relied on short passing and individual skills.”
Question #5
A bronze statue in Maimonides Park in Brooklyn depicts one man putting his arm around another. The gesture, which likely occurred either in Cincinnati in 1947 or Boston in 1948, was more controversial, and thus more courageous, than it would seem without historical context. Name both men in the statue.
