Weren't there 5 rescue rangers? I suppose one could argue that Monty made up half the mass of the team, but otherwise it's hard to split them in half.

For the record I wasn't, and try to as seldom as possible :)

There were 5 Rescue Rangers: Chip, Dale, Gadget, Monty, and Zipper.

Yes. But the show was called "Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers". So, easy enough.

To be technical and all, Jethro Tull is a band and not a single musician

But don't people say "aww" looking at kittens? Augusta is pronounced "uh-GUS-tuh".

lol sawmos! To be fair I had a hard time with that one as both clues were types of lettuces. Would have been much easier if the clue had been chard, kale, etc....

You might want to look that up again. Actually neither is a type of lettuce although they are often used in combination with or as a substitute for lettuce.

Oh, this quiz was damn near perfect! My only complaint is the clue for Dallas; the "a" in "Dale" is most definitely long, so even though I had both clue parts, I could not get the answer. I didn't even stop to think that the pronunciation could have been that far afield, since every other one was just so PERFECTLY spot on! Might I maybe suggest "doll" – or even better, "dal", the Indian lentil dish – as possible alternatives?

You must not have ever heard a Texan pronounce Daaallas.

I'm pretty sure the clue with the cheerleaders and arthur president works for Winchester as well...but I don't hang out with many cheerleaders, so who knows what they say

This was fun.

I knew all the cities but, being British, it was challenging working out some of the US pronunciations (which I'm sure vary quite a bit across the country anyway.

Cheerleaders says 'Ra' don't they? :)

A trial lawyer doesn't sue, he represents the plaintiff who is the one suing.

Referring to Jethro Tull as a musician (singular) is misleading as it was the name of the band, not any of the individuals in the band. Also, trial lawyers aren't typically the "suing" lawyers. That is generally handled by civil litigation lawyers. A little nitpicky, I understand.
