Sports Night follow up

[cyrano]

I'd like to thank all of you who participated in my edification poll. Unfortunately, I accidentally set the results private, so I thought I'd share here.

The first question was "Who is Gordon Ramsay". And the first place answer was a tie--45.7% of you knew he was a fellow on television, some suspecting he was a cook or a chef. 45.7% of you also knew 'Tickybox!' which is always the right answer.
My two personal favorites also came in at a tie, with 11.4% voting 'Lord Byron' and 'Dana's Boyfriend'. (How many guys named Gordon can you think of?)

I was also pleased with the results on the second question, "Where is Hell's Kitchen?"
A very well educated 57.1% of you knew that it was a New York neighborhood with a bad reputation. 25.7% of you also knew that it was on Fox Network, just edging out the 17.1% of you who placed it Beyond the Burning City of Dis, proving that I still have some Classical students on my friendslist.

There were many 'other' answers, but most of them went unexplained aside from the addition of Gordon Ramsay as an MP embroiled in some sort of sex scandal. (Redundant, I know.)

Again, thank you all. It was edifying.

You forgot the long-suffering Gordon of Gordon & Maria, on Sesame Street.

I didn't forget him.
We're not speaking to each other, and he knows *exactly* why.

Oh, did he let Cookie Monster eat *your* VW Beetle too?

She was a cherry '65, and I'd tricked her out with VTOL!
It wouldn't be so bad, but it was signed by Janis Joplin.

These percentages, 11.4%, 17.1% ,25.7%, 45.7%, and 57.1% indicate that the total number of voters is most likely 35.
