Thanks all... I donated it all back and asked Peter to draw another winner since I won the whole package in 2018. I guess my logic was that, now that there aren't any football teams for God to come through for, maybe he'll have a little pity on me. Whoops, sorry God... maybe *He'll* have a little pity on me. I know, I know; I'm still a little new at this. (PS: this is humor, folks).

Congratulations Al.

I’m curious to know what wrong answers were sent in. Also, I don’t recommend doing a search of double-dicker.

Thanks! Yeah, I wonder too... and how odd: 68 correct, 68 incorrect. Like a half-deal? (btw, you crack me up).
