ANNOUNCER: Let's get the game started.
Here's the guy who put the fun in fun guy, the host of The Pennsylvania Game, Scott Bruce.
[applause] Yes.
My people.
My people.
Yes.
What a great crowd.
We've got cub scouts, we've got a wonderful studio audience, and we have you viewers at home, and we couldn't be happier.
Welcome to another edition of The Pennsylvania Game.
Let's not waste any time.
Let's meet this week's panelists.
Brad Christman comes to us from Harrisburg, where he's morning anchor and reporter for the Radio Pennsylvania Network, which is made up of 76 radio stations reaching all corners of the State of Pennsylvania.
Welcome Brad Christman.
[applause] Also joining us is Foley Zelenak.
Foley is a born and bred Pittsburgher.
She's also a fiction writer and a comedian, and she's back for more.
She was a contestant two years ago, when I was a contestant.
Welcome back, Foley.
Thanks.
Good to be here.
[applause] SCOTT BRUCE: And finally, we have Cosmo Rose.
Cosmo is the host of The Breakfast Club on Classy 100 in Erie Pennsylvania.
He's also an adjunct broadcasting instructor at Cabrini College and Monmouth University.
Cosmo Rose.
[applause] We've got a fun group of panelists, a great studio audience.
Let's not waste time.
Wendy Williams, give me my first question.
ANNOUNCER: In 1841, Sarah Hale became editor of the nation's most popular woman's magazine.
The Philadelphia based Godey's Lady's Book.
Hale took on important social issues in her engaging editorials.
In fact, most historians today agree that it was Sarah Hale's persistent editorial campaign which led to, A, the celebration of Thanksgiving as a national holiday, B, the establishment of the Minimum Salary law, C, the creation of the Better Business Bureau, or D, the use of the insanity pleas in criminal court trials.
SCOTT BRUCE: All right, contestants, ring in the celebration of Thanksgiving as a national holiday, the establishment of the Minimum Salary law, the creation of the Better Business Bureau or the use of the insanity pleas in criminal court trials.
Brad, we're going to you, first.
Well, as much as I like that D answer, I had to pick C, for no other reason than C stands for correct answer.
Ah, using logic.
Scary, scary thought on this show.
Foley, what do you think?
I went with the old Minimum Wage law.
SCOTT BRUCE: The old Minimum Wage law.
The old Minimum Wage.
For me, it was pretty close to what it is now, actually.
SCOTT BRUCE: It hasn't changed all that much.
Hasn't changed all that much.
We're still watching it.
How about you, Cosmo?
I went with A, because I'm a little hungry.
[laughing] SCOTT BRUCE: OK, well, we'll see if we can't just serve you up some Thanksgiving dinner.
Wendy, what do you think?
ANNOUNCER: The answer is A, the celebration of Thanksgiving as a national holiday.
Although, the original idea for a day of Thanksgiving cannot be attributed to Sarah Hale, her efforts led to the observance of the annual national holiday.
In 1863, after 20 years of editorializing in Godey's magazine, and letter writing to important government officials, President Lincoln finally issued a proclamation, urging American families to come together and celebrate their blessings.
Hale felt, a spiritual togetherness would unite, both, families and the union, then, in a state of disarray because of the Civil War.
Hale also took advantage of the magazine's tremendous national circulation to help establish America's first day nursery, and first industrial school for girls.
I have, in my notes, that Sarah Hale's first book was written about antislavery, and it was the first book on antislavery ever written in America, preceding Uncle Tom's Cabin by some 20 or 30 years.
So there was that interesting.
And also, Sarah Hale wrote "Mary Had A Little Lamb," which, interestingly enough, is what Cosmo had for Thanksgiving, a little lamb.
[laughing] And there you have it.
They're laughing.
They're going wild.
Wendy, get me out of here.
Give me a new question.
ANNOUNCER: E. Digby Baltzell, a University of Pennsylvania professor, was simply trying to save space when he abbreviated a, now famous, acronym, so it would fit into the tables of his 1964 book.
Did he coin the term, A, IQ, B, SNAFU, C, WASP, or D, UFO?
SCOTT BRUCE: E. Digby Baltzell, just saying that is fine, I got to tell you the truth.
Did he come up with IQ, SNAFU, WASP, or UFO?
Foley, we're going to go to you first, on this one.
I'm going to go with UFO.
SCOTT BRUCE: UFO.
UFO.
SCOTT BRUCE: Because you don't understand the question or the answer.
I'm just spaced out, that's all.
SCOTT BRUCE: B, it's an unidentified flying answer, is what it is.
Yes, that's it.
I love it.
Cosmo, what do you think?
I went with IQ.
SCOTT BRUCE: IQ.
No real reason.
Just because I don't-- I hope it's not SNAFU.
Yeah.
And, yeah, really.
One of the-- SCOTT BRUCE: Because it'll make for an interesting story afterwards.
Sure would.
Sure would.
And it's also the shortest.
That's good.
How about you, Brad?
Because it was the '60s, I took WASP, C, because that just seems like a more recent term.
SCOTT BRUCE: WASP, C. And you personify WASP.
Thank you very much.
SCOTT BRUCE: That's a very attractive WASP for you.
Same one for you.
SCOTT BRUCE: Let's find out if, in fact, it is a WASP.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is C, WASP.
When professor E, Digby Baltzell abbreviated white Anglo-Saxon Protestant, in order to squeeze it into a statistics table, he never expected WASP to become a household term.
Baltzell, a distinguished academic, was quite irritated when he became recognized as the WASP man.
He spent the rest of his life denying the importance of the word, which had become an instantly recognizable way of describing the ethnic ruling elite of America.
The Protestant Establishment, Aristocracy, and Caste in America, is one of his many books to suggest that the elite class break away from a WASP stronghold, and begin to represent the entire composition of society.
Today, his writings are referred to, by social scholars, as blueprints for equitable, social integration.
Digby Baltzell criticized upper class society and institutional racism.
Not so long ago his ideas were considered revolutionary.
Thank goodness, those days are behind us.
With that, we move along.
It's time to meet our panel, just a little bit better.
Let's start with you, Brad.
Brad Christman.
I don't know if we can get a close up.
Can we get a close up?
Could you hold your tie up a little bit?
BRAD: Talking about my tie collection.
Brad has the finest tie collection, maybe in the entire world.
Possibly, my crown jewel, one of the finest works of arts, I believe.
SCOTT BRUCE: The dogs playing poker.
Dogs playing poker, one of the finest art pieces of our generation.
Yes, it is.
I have that with Elvis sitting in as a fourth.
BRAD: And it's velvet, right?
Yes.
Very nice.
Good to have you here.
BRAD: Thank you very much.
Thanks so much, Brad.
Foley, now, we know that you're a comedian, a Pittsburgher and a comedian.
I'm a comedian.
I just love working with other comedians.
It's good to se you again.
It's good to see you too.
SCOTT BRUCE: Any exciting new comedy things going on?
No.
Just kind of this and that.
SCOTT BRUCE: Doing the show here.
Doing a show here.
Doing a show here.
Doing the show there.
Doing a set.
How about you?
Well, things are going great.
I'm hanging out and having fun.
FOLEY: Well, that's what comedians do.
Talking to you is the most fun.
I also understand, you're a big movies buff from the '40s.
I love that stuff.
Joan Crawford, and Bette Davis, and all that goofy women stuff.
SCOTT BRUCE: Let's hope we have some questions that'll help work out for you.
I sure hope so.
OK. Time to move down to Cosmo Rose.
Now, I have it on inside information, that Cosmo is the actual name on your birth certificate.
Yeah, that's it.
SCOTT BRUCE: I'm guessing-- I'm guessing Cosmo Kramer from Seinfeld is pretty upset that you took the name first.
You can only imagine how many times my phone rang that night.
When his mother turned around and said, Cosmo, that was it.
And two seconds later, the phone rang.
Well, I think a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.
COSMO: Yikes.
[laughing] You're not sitting up here.
Good to have you here.
It's good to be here.
The panel-- the panel is getting funnier than the comedian.
Look out.
Wendy, bring me a new question.
ANNOUNCER: There are only a few rivers in the entire world that flow north.
Among them, are the Nile River in Egypt, and the Saint Johns river in Florida.
Can you name the river in Pennsylvania that flows north?
Is it A, Tioga River, B, Lackawanna River, C, Monongahela River, or D, Allegheny River?
SCOTT BRUCE: There we have it.
Tioga, Lackawanna, Monongahela, or Allegheny, which of these rivers flows north?
We're going to start with you, Cosmo.
Well, I went with D, because I was sure that it was a river in Pennsylvania.
I'm relatively new here, but I know that's a river in Pennsylvania, so.
SCOTT BRUCE: You're right, it is, and so are the other three.
COSMO: But I didn't know for sure.
No point in letting a little thing like that hang you up.
Allegheny River is your choice.
That's my choice.
Brad, we'll go to you.
Well, I decided to go with the Tioga River because I've never heard of it, and I thought the way the questions go in the show, maybe that's what the answer could be.
SCOTT BRUCE: That could be because you haven't heard of it.
Exactly.
Could flow up.
Next, we're going to go to Foley.
And she's a Pittsburgher.
And my guess is, she knows this.
Surely you jest.
I went with the old Lackawanna because I like the way it sings.
The old Lackawanna.
SCOTT BRUCE: Lackawanna.
Lackawanna, sounds like a cheer.
SCOTT BRUCE: OK.
So we have Tioga, Lackawanna, Allegheny.
Nobody picked Monongahela, which, by the way, flows north, into Pittsburgh.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is C, the Monongahela River in Western Pennsylvania.
The Monongahela River, nicknamed the Mon, is one of the six largest waterways in Pennsylvania.
The 128 mile long river flows north from Fairmont, West Virginia into Pittsburgh, where it joins the Allegheny to form the Ohio river.
Though, much talked about, the northerly flow of the river is not as mysterious as it sounds.
The town of Fairmont rests at a much higher elevation than its Pittsburgh neighbor.
So the water naturally flows downhill.
In the early 20th century, the Mon was the Center of American steel manufacturing and barge traffic.
The Monongahela River, along with the Allegheny and the Ohio River, make up the famous three rivers that give Pittsburgh its international identity.
OK.
They don't know the rivers too well but they are scoring some.
Let's check the scoreboard.
Brad has one point, Foley, zero, Cosmo, one.
All doing very well.
[applause] Almost all doing very well.
All but Foley, doing well.
That means it's time for our first clue in the Mystery Pennsylvanian.
Get your pens ready.
Here it is.
He was a dedicated conservationist who served as the last secretary of the Department of Forests and Waters, and the first secretary of the Department of Environmental Resources.
He was a dedicated conservationist who served as the last secretary of the Department of Forests and Waters, and the first secretary of the Department of Environmental Resources.
Write that down on your first line.
If you get it right all three times, it's worth three big points.
Which, in this game, could mean quite a bit.
OK. Everybody's all caught up.
Wendy Williams, bring me a new question.
ANNOUNCER: During the depression, John Ware Jr. was a wealthy utilities owner in Chester, Pennsylvania.
An ingenious and impulsive man, he went to extreme measures to avoid paying a higher tax assessment, following the renovation of his 22 room mansion.
Did he, A, cut utility service to the tax office, B, move his mansion, C, turn his home into an orphanage, or D, burn down the mansion.
SCOTT BRUCE: John Ware did not want to pay his taxes.
What did he do?
Did he cut utility service to the tax office?
Did he move his mansion?
Did he turn his home into an orphanage or burn down the mansion?
Brad, we're back to you for your first guess.
All logical options, I think, SCOTT BRUCE: Sure, I'd burn down my house.
By the way, since I'll never be on Jeopardy, I'd like to phrase this in the form of a question, if I may.
I'd say, what is C?
SCOTT BRUCE: What is C?
It is the ocean between England and America.
OK, so C is your answer.
You thought he turned it into an orphanage.
Foley, what do you think?
Well, it's a little known fact that it was actually not so much a mansion, it was a trailer.
SCOTT BRUCE: A trailer.
It was a trailer.
And he did move it.
He moved his mansion.
He moved it.
SCOTT BRUCE: He actually moved it.
So you believe he moved the mansion?
I like that idea.
How about you, Cosmo?
I said move his mansion, too, B, because I think I was behind it on route 322.
[laughter] I think I've been in that same traffic jam.
Could it possibly be move the mansion or was it an orphanage?
We'll find out right now.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is B, move his mansion.
In 1929, John Ware Jr. was so disgruntled by his tax assessment, that he up and moved his red brick Georgian mansion in Oxford Chester County down one hill, across a valley, and up another hill.
Steel was brought from Pittsburgh and Bethlehem to build eight railroad tracks to transport it.
On November 21st, 1931, the house began its one-half mile journey, at a rate of one foot per minute.
The beams were readjusted along the way to ensure the house remained level for its occupants.
Throughout the move, the Ware family enjoyed their usual household comforts, and, in fact, served lunch to 40 guests during the first day of the move.
Well, talk about moving your house.
Legend also has it, that Ware purchased the gas company in Oxford, during this time, because the company had refused to service the mobile mansion.
I also have some other information.
It turns out, Ware went ahead and bought a second mansion because he wanted to have a double wide.
[laughing] Could I be pushing it, just a little bit?
That's a distinct possibility.
How about another question?
ANNOUNCER: In 1975, the Williams Grove Old Timers was formed in Harrisburg.
Little did its founders know, that their shared interest would result in the creation of the first museum of its kind in the eastern United States.
What kind of museum is it?
A, watch museum, B, a toy soldier museum, C, a motor racing museum, or D, an egg cup museum.
SCOTT BRUCE: I don't know if I'd spend good money to go to an egg cup museum or any money, for that matter.
But those are our choices.
A watch museum, a toy soldier museum, a motor racing museum-- [zoom] --or an egg cup museum.
And there went a car, now.
We're going to find out from Foley, first, on this.
Foley, what do you think?
I went with D, an egg cup museum.
SCOTT BRUCE: You went for the egg cup.
Sounded weird enough.
SCOTT BRUCE: It just sounded weird enough, it could be it.
Cosmo, what do you think?
I went with a watch museum, only because it was called the Old Timers, right?
I'm just giving it a shot.
Just taking a shot.
SCOTT BRUCE: Tick tock.
Tick tock.
I like the thinking there, Brad, what do you got?
I'd like to change my answer.
[laughter] Actually, I went with B, a toy soldier museum.
SCOTT BRUCE: B, a toy soldier museum.
So we have three completely different answers.
And as it turns out, they're all wrong.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is C, a motor racing museum.
In 1975, a small group of racing enthusiasts gathered at Williams Grove speedway, near Harrisburg, for a reunion.
They all shared a common interest in the early days of American motor racing, and wanted to preserve the history of that era.
The Williams Grove Old Timers was established.
The members built a public museum in York Springs, now known as the Eastern Museum of Motor Racing.
It's the only museum of its kind in the eastern United States, and contains an impressive collection of restored vintage race cars and memorabilia related to American open wheel automobile racing history.
SCOTT BRUCE: OK. Nobody scored too well on that.
But a half mile dirt racetrack is also situated next door to the museum.
The track, which once played an important part in the golden era of automobile racing during the '20s and '30s, has since been restored to its original look, and is used for exhibition races of antique cars.
Let's check and see our scores.
As it turns out, Brad has one point.
Foley, up off the goose egg, has one point.
But Cosmos, in the lead with two points.
[applause] Very good.
That brings us to our second clue in the Mystery Pennsylvanian.
Get ready.
Here it comes.
Pennsylvania's State Park system with 114 State parks stands as a perpetual legacy of his work.
Pennsylvania's State Park system with 114 State parks stands as a perpetual legacy of his work.
Here's that first clue again.
He was a dedicated conservationist, who served as the last secretary of the Department of Forests and Waters, and the first secretary of the Department of Environmental Resources.
Everybody's busy writing.
So they all know something.
They know that Jeopardy is easier, is what they know.
And that'll bring us up to one more question from Wendy Williams.
ANNOUNCER: Around 1,500 covered bridges were built in Pennsylvania between 1820 and 1900.
Today, 219 of these structures, more than any other State, are found in 40 counties.
What are they nicknamed?
A, Conestoga Bridges, B, Splinter Spans, C, Kissing Bridges, or D, Trusty Trestles.
SCOTT BRUCE: Well, I don't know about you.
But all of these make sense to me.
Conestoga Bridges because they're covered.
Splinter Bridges with the obvious.
Kissing Bridges, Trusty Trestles.
It could be any one of them.
We're going to go to Cosmo, first, on this.
Cosmo, what do you think?
I went with Conestoga Bridges, and using the same logic that you had.
SCOTT BRUCE: Covered and covered.
I thought it was brilliant.
[laughing] Brilliant stuff.
That's what I like about you, Cosmo.
Kiss it up.
Looking for another lottery ticket, aren't you?
--Kissing Bridges, then.
He's looking for a lottery ticket.
OK, Brad, down to you.
I also with Conestoga Bridges because you just impressed me so much.
I'm an impressive guy.
What can I tell you?
Foley, make it a clean sweep, and there's a lottery ticket in it for all of you.
No I'm a romantic.
I went with Kissing Bridges.
SCOTT BRUCE: Kissing Bridges.
Yeah.
SCOTT BRUCE: And there, see, now that's nice.
I like that.
That's a lovely answer.
Let's find out if Kissing Bridges might be the right one.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is C, Kissing Bridges.
Pennsylvania's often recognized as the birthplace of the picturesque covered bridge, and boasts more standing structures than any other State.
Today, 219 covered or Kissing bridges graced the landscape in 40 counties.
The bridges were covered to protect the truss design from weather, not to ensure privacy for romantic couples.
More than half of the structures in Pennsylvania utilize the burr arch truss, named for designer Theodore Burr.
Lancaster boasts 28 covered bridges, more than any other county in the State, and was once home to the world's longest covered bridge.
Built in 1814, the bridge spanned the Susquehanna River, a distance of more than one mile.
The bridge collapsed in 1832 due to ice and high water.
Very good, for coming up with that romantic kissing answer.
Pass that lottery card down to Foley.
There you go.
Good luck with that, winning that.
By the way, Lancaster is the covered bridge capital of Pennsylvania.
So, good place to go and see them, and get a little smooching in.
When you got some spare time, it's always a good idea.
Let's go ahead, and move along to our next question, please, Wendy Williams.
ANNOUNCER: The Patton Clay Works company located in Patton, Pennsylvania, was once recognized as the largest clay manufacturing company in the world.
The Clay Works produced many products.
But the one that brought the company its fame was its high quality bricks.
Were Patton bricks used to, A, construct the yellow brick road in the Wizard of Oz, B, in the sidewalk surrounding the Eiffel Tower, C, by Houdini in his underwater escapes, or D, in portions of the Berlin Wall?
SCOTT BRUCE: Say the name again.
OK.
This is Patton bricks.
Were they used to construct the yellow brick road in the Wizard of Oz, in the sidewalks surrounding the Eiffel Tower, by Houdini in his underwater escapes, or, all in all, were these bricks in the Berlin Wall?
We're going to go to Brad, first, on this one.
Brad, what do you think?
Well, I went with B, because I would hope no one from Pennsylvania helped to build the Berlin Wall.
SCOTT BRUCE: That would be nice.
B, so you went with the Eiffel Tower?
BRAD: Yes.
That's a nice thing to build.
How about you, Foley?
I went with the yellow brick road.
SCOTT BRUCE: The yellow brick road.
Follow the yellow brick road.
You've got a little-- you look a little like Glinda.
[laughter] No, no.
Not the wicked witch, the good witch.
And you like a little munchkin.
I look like the munchkin.
FOLEY: Sure, that's cute.
Hi, I'm the mayor of Munchkinville.
Today is a day of independence.
I think I stepped in it on that.
It was meant as a compliment.
Glinda, the good witch.
FOLEY: OK. SCOTT BRUCE: She's a lovely woman.
OK. And how about you, Cosmo, what do you think?
I went with the Eiffel Tower, as well.
SCOTT BRUCE: Wow, we have two Eiffel Tower and the yellow brick road.
Nobody went with the Berlin Wall.
And nobody got my, all in all, it was just another brick in the wall, joke either, which bothered me quite a bit.
I guess, we're going to have to find out what Wendy Williams has to say.
ANNOUNCER: The answer is B, in the sidewalks at the base of the Eiffel Tower.
In 1895, the Patton Clay Works manufacturing company was established by George S. Good.
The company created everything from sewer pipes to chimney tops, but is best known for its brick products.
Used in, both, construction and road paving, the bricks were considered the best in the world.
In fact, many US veterans of both World Wars, proudly claim to have walked on Patton pavers on the sidewalks of Paris, along the base of the Eiffel Tower.
Even though many of the streets of Patton are now covered with asphalt, the residents of Patton will never forget that George S. Good helped put Patton on the map, or that the Clay Works manufacturing company was once the largest producer of clay products in the world.
SCOTT BRUCE: All bricks aside, it's time for another clue in the Mystery Pennsylvanian.
Your third and last clue.
Get ready.
Here it comes.
A 2,856 acre State Park located in northeastern Mercer County bears his name.
A big park, 2,856 acres.
State Park located in Northeastern Mercer County, bears his name.
Just to recap he was dedicated-- he was a dedicated conservationist, who served as the last secretary of the Department of Forests and Waters, and the first secretary of the Department of Environmental Resources.
Pennsylvania State Park system with 114 State parks stands as a perpetual legacy to his work.
Everybody seems to have their answers down.
So let's go ahead straight to Foley.
Foley, go ahead and pull that up.
Just set it up, and face it out towards the camera, if you will?
Do I have to.
SCOTT BRUCE: Carefully.
I didn't study.
SCOTT BRUCE: Careful.
You didn't study?
There is going to be a test.
OK, first you have Bob Trout.
It's a fish.
It's sounded good.
SCOTT BRUCE: It's a fish-- a fish guy, you know.
A fish, yeah.
SCOTT BRUCE: OK. And then you went to Karl Keystone.
Said he had Keystone Park.
So that Keystone, there's a name.
SCOTT BRUCE: Yeah.
It's a very important part of the State.
And finally, Mr. Park.
He had parks named after him.
Mr. Park, yeah.
Think you might have been watching Mr. Rogers, too much.
But that's good.
Very good answers.
I'm sure they are.
I like them.
We'll just put them down in shame.
Cosmo, let's go to you.
OK.
Here we go.
SCOTT BRUCE: We have Ted Danson.
Well known conservationist.
SCOTT BRUCE: Yes, I remember.
Right before he bought the bar, I believe.
Yeah.
SCOTT BRUCE: Yeah.
And then we have Smokey, the Bear.
Very, very involved with the parks.
SCOTT BRUCE: Yes, very big on the parks.
And Bert Parks.
Bert Parks.
SCOTT BRUCE: In case you have-- He's also Mr. Park, I guess.
Yes.
Almost.
I was going to say, we have a theme going.
Everybody on their third guess seems to-- The theme is we're all silly.
--go with the Park.
And that's what makes it so much fun.
Brad, let's see what you have.
Well, I decided when I came here, if I did not know the Mystery Pennsylvanian, I would just say Scranton.
I don't know which Scranton.
I don't know what era of Scranton.
But I went with Scranton.
Well, I'm glad you picked that over Wilkes-Barre, that's all I can say.
So Scranton, Scranton, and Scranton.
Is if it turns out to be the Lieutenant Governor, you could possibly win.
I don't know.
But I think, we better find out because I don't think anyone knows who this man is.
Tell us, Wendy.
ANNOUNCER: Maurice K. Goddard served as Pennsylvania secretary of the Department of Forests and Waters, later known as the Department of Environmental Resources, from 1955 to 1979.
His record of public service and protection of Pennsylvania's environment is unmatched.
The State's extensive park system with 114 State parks, one within 25 miles of every citizen in the Commonwealth, stands as a perpetual legacy of his work.
He was the moving force behind two voter supported bond issues that allocated $570 million to conserve waters and forests throughout Pennsylvania.
Doc Goddard died in 1995, and is remembered as a giant among conservationists.
Maurice Goddard, a famous Pennsylvanian.
OK. Let's take a look at that scoreboard, and see where everybody came in.
Brad, and Foley, each, with two points.
But Cosmo, came in with three points.
He'll be our champion this week.
[applause] That's right.
We have some fabulous prizes.
Wendy Williams, tell him what he won.
ANNOUNCER: OK, Scott.
It's one night's free lodging at Springfield House, bed and breakfast in historic Boalsburg, and 50 chances to win $1,000 a week for life from the Pennsylvania lottery.
That's right, lottery tickets and a bed and breakfast stay.
It don't get better than this.
