Historical People

Since  I did questions yesterday, and I'm seriously exhausted this morning.. I thought we could do this today?  The board has been pretty dead all week, but here goes nothing!!

This is a little different, we're going to be guessing why or how some people are famous (or infamous) from History.  (This is because I'm to total History Buff and I'm craving a history fix..)

How to play:
First player names someone from history.
Next player answers with one of their fame inducing things & a new person to guess about.
Example:
Person 1: Wilbur Wright
Person2: One of the Wright Brothers who helped to invent the fixed wing air plane.
Person 2: Princess Di

Easy and Fun right? Hopefully!

  • Okay.. That one was probably a little bit TOO hard.. I only know who she is because I'm a huge history nut, and I have a slight obsession with the Titanic.  She was an opera singer, but she's really more famous because she was Benjamin Guggenhiem's mistress.  She survived the sinking though...
