    Fun exercise to divide the folks of two distinct generations. If you are old enough to know Webb best be hip enough to know web

    Loved this thing. I’m too young so I wasn’t a regular watcher of Dragnet but the questions had me thinking and going back and forth. Still had a pretty good score….I’m going play again….
