ZeroTolerance 584 Posted May 30, 2018 33.6 - Mae West - Seductress West made a name for herself in vaudeville and on the stage in New York City before moving to Hollywood to become a comedian, actress and writer in the motion picture industry, as well as appearing on radio and television. The American Film Institute named her 15th among the greatest female stars of classic American cinema. West was one of the more controversial movie stars of her day and encountered many problems, especially censorship. She bucked the system, making comedy out of conventional mores, and the Depression-era audience admired her for it. When her cinematic career ended, she wrote books and plays and continued to perform in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television and to record rock and roll albums. She was once asked about the various efforts to impede her career, to which she replied: "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 5,317 Posted May 30, 2018 I can't lose all the American Hockey players to Volty so I better pick one now. Since he took the Golden Jet off the board I will go : 33.03 Mike Modano. Hockey. Another American Fav of mine is dead to me when he became a Rag$hit. His dad was the Golden Jet, he's the Golden Brett. So, for those that don't know, his father, Bobby Hull, is a Canadian Hall of Famer. He'd played for Chicago (the later Winnipeg) and his first wife, Brett's mother, is an American. So Brett was a duel citizen (and he won't be the last with this Canadian HoF dad/American mom pedigree.) Well, when Brett was a kid, there was this big international junior hockey competition and despite growing up in Canada, the Canadian team never invited Brett to even try out. Meanwhile, the American team did and so Brett took it as a snub, went and played for the US, and continued playing internationally for the US his entire career. He;s got the 4th most goals scored ever, the only person not named Gretzky to get 86 in a season, and two Stanley Cups, including a Cup clinching game winning goal in triple overtime in 1999.

vuduchile 1,945 Posted May 30, 2018 33.7 Sybil Ludington - Woman Paul who? What a fraud that guy was. There are a lot of people who deserve a lot more credit than Paul Revere, who didnt even finish his ride before being captured by the British. One particularly notable rider was Sybil Ludington, a sixteen year old girl who rode sidesaddle, alone, in the rain for forty miles (twice the distance Revere covered) to alert her fathers troops that they needed to meet at the Ludington farm to fight back against British raiders in Danbury, Connecticut. During the trip, she used a long stick to not only knock on the doors of the troops, but also to fight off a highwayman she encountered on her route. Thanks to Sybils actions, 400 troops were ready to fight the next day and the group was able to join the Continental Army and chase the British out of Connecticut. For those wondering why we remember Paul Reveres name above all the other successful riders from the Revolution, the simple reason is because Henry Wadsworth Longfellow found that Revere rhymes with a lot of things, including listen my children and you shall hear.

5-Points 3,564 Posted May 30, 2018 33.8 1970 Marshall University Thundering Herd Football Team - Sports Team On the evening of November 14, 1970, the Thundering Herd football team, along with coaches and fans, was returning home to Huntington from Kinston, North Carolina. The team had just lost a game 17–14 against the East Carolina University Pirates at Ficklen Stadium in Greenville, North Carolina. The chartered Southern Airways Flight 932 crashed on approach to the Tri-State Airport after clipping trees just west of the runway and impacting, nose-first, into a hollow. All seventy-five people on board were killed, including 37 players and 5 coaches. 13 members of the team, as well as the members of the freshman football team, who were not eligible to play varsity under NCAA rules at that time, were not passengers. 34.1 William "Boss" Tweed - Congressman William Magear Tweed (April 3, 1823 – April 12, 1878)—often erroneously referred to as "William Marcy Tweed" (see below),[1] and widely known as "Boss" Tweed—was an American politician most notable for being the "boss" of Tammany Hall, the Democratic Party political machine that played a major role in the politics of 19th century New York Cityand State. At the height of his influence, Tweed was the third-largest landowner in New York City and a director of the Erie Railroad, the Tenth National Bank, and the New-York Printing Company, as well as proprietor of the Metropolitan Hotel.[2] Tweed was elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1852 and the New York County board of supervisors in 1858, the year he became the head of the Tammany Hall political machine. He was also elected to the New York State Senate in 1867, but Tweed's greatest influence came from being an appointed member of a number of boards and commissions, his control over political patronage in New York City through Tammany, and his ability to ensure the loyalty of voters through jobs he could create and dispense on city-related projects. Tweed was convicted for stealing an amount estimated by an aldermen's committee in 1877 at between $25 million and $45 million from New York City taxpayers through political corruption, although later estimates ranged as high as $200 million.[3] Unable to make bail, he escaped from jail once, but was returned to custody. He died in the Ludlow Street Jail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He and his team launched 34 rockets[3] between 1926 and 1941, achieving altitudes as high as 2.6 km (1.6 mi) and speeds as fast as 885 km/h (550 mph).[3] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 5,317 Posted May 31, 2018 That's not the point. The point is each category only goes three deep and you have five in this one. Fortunately wildcard is your friend and can cover you.r overflow. Since 90sbaby has Trump too, make it six. Trump's a great wildcard as he gets the business, the entertainment, the celebrity, and the politics. Even people who hate Trump have to give him credit for that.

wiffleball 4,790 Posted May 31, 2018 I went with Walt as the man, but what Disney has turned his empire into with movie acquisitions of Marvel and Star Wars, make his name probably the biggest business in the history of the world Did you know the overwhelming by a long shot majority of Steve Jobs wealth when he died wasn't in apple, rather, in Disney stock from his sale of Pixar?
