A ten gallon hat does not hold anywhere close to ten gallons (unless the clue is supposed to be punny).

"Ten-gallon" is a slang term for the stereotypical tall, wide-brimmed cowboy hat. There are several theories of the term's origin - one of the more common is that it's a corruption of the Spanish term "tan galán," or "very fine." There are other theories, which I think are also the result of English-Spanish crossover terms.

No. There is considerable variance in the pace of the count by different referees, and this count is official (i.e. not overruled by a stopwatch).

Yes, Ali would have been knocked out by Henry Cooper if the referee had got his counting organised correctly.

I'm not a boxing fan but I feel like this makes sense. It should be at the discretion of the referee. If the guy is about to get up, you can prolong it a bit, but if the guy is clearly out, or in danger of getting hurt, then the ref can move things along a bit.

I enjoyed this quiz. In fact, I'd give it a 10!

Couldn't get the Bo Derek clue. I tried scale of 10, rated 10, ranked 10, movie 10, ...had no idea what you wanted. I don't remember "perfect" being connected with her at that time, it was just always said as "she's a 10". I thought Perfect 10 was a more contemporary phrase and used to describe models or hair products or whatever.

I'm with you. I balked when I saw the question, then tried 'ten'. '10'. 'A ten'. Okay, let's branch out. A model. Running on a beach. Tall. Love interest. Movie. Tan. Braided hair. Cheat. Look on Wikipedia in middle of quiz. In description of plot: 'perfect 10'. Okay, that must be it.

Dudley Moore called her perfect 10 in the movie "10," thus the title of the movie.

A lot of misses on the Bo Derek question because many of us just answer "10">>> "10", 10, Ten should all count.

One should be the upward limit on rom-com questions in a quiz. Zero - or if somehow possible less than zero - is preferred.

Also we do not speak about Matthew McCaughnahey's career between "Dazed and Confused" and circa 2012. Those are the lost years and are to be forgotten, and especially so if the movie poster involves him leaning in anyway.
