Thanksgiving Puzzle

Stumped on some

Alex Y

I have seen this before, so I won't post the answers I know. But there are some that I have forgotten (or are in inaccessible memory), so I'll watch for answers while I try to figure out/remember those.

Thanks for posting.

Same here

Henry Higginbotham

Many of these were on the Trivia posting from a year ago or so, but I'll have a go at the handful I haven't previously seen (or don't remember, anyway):

8. 13 Stripes on the American Flag

10. 18 Holes on a Golf Course (or maybe more: Some genius decided our local muni needed something called "foot golf," and now there are these huge holes with plastic covers scattered about through the fairways.)

12. 200 Dollars for Passing Go in Monopoly

17. 1 Wheel on a Unicycle

18. ???

21. 1000 Words that a Picture is Worth

I think I posted this a year or two ago. I have had this for 20 years or so and some of the clues are dated. My 14 year old granddaughter has never heard of 57 Heinz Varieties.

I'll post answers later on.

Here is 18. 5= D in a ZC Digits in a Zip Code. Today many (all?) zip codes are 9 digits, though 5 still gets there.
