I've never thought of the color of The Golden Gate Bridge as teetering toward orange more than red.

Yeah it's a bit of a trick question as international orange isn't really orange, it is what you imagine

I changed that one from the old answer since I wanted a very easy question at #1.

The bridge is DEFINITELY not green, gold, or blue so the answer should be obvious.

Actually, that's not even the most crooked street in the city. That honor goes to Vermont Street on the southwest side of Portrero Hill.

...and the cable car drivers often tell riders that it is only the "second most crooked street in the world" ... after Wall Street.

Tbf, the question isn't about what actually *is* the most crooked etc, it's whats known to be, and obviously Lombard is more known than Vermont

Its not like you could confuse that question for the incorrect answer anyways since the other streets aren't crooked

East-coaster, and got 10/10! Visited once, years ago, but that did help me with one question - the animal you'll see at Pier 39!
