Can I just say, as far as airport names go, Sky Harbor is a GREAT name for an airport.

Read "lived" as "live" and went, "heh, not John Mccain". And that kids is a lesson on why you read the questions carefully.

More obscure than the capital city of any nation currently not on this 100 cities list.

And If population/'biggness' really is your concern, why not plump for 5th biggest city in China or India (Chongqing/Ahmedabad)? They both dwarf Phoenix.

Oh yes, Ouagadougou > Phoenix when it comes to obscurity.

Only on JetPunk, folks.

As a Phoenician, this was definitely a pleasant surprise - didn't expect to see my city featured! Definitely the easiest quiz of this series for me.

Hey I dont know if someone is going to read this but I saw somewhere that Phoenix gets its name because they based the original settlement in a place where a native american tribe had made a irrigation system and based of those they were able to make the city so yeah something like that, they rised like a phoenix from the ashes of the tribe

Not a single question about Jimmy Eat World or the Gin Blossoms. Like doing a Liverpool quiz without mentioning the Beatles! Yes, those things are totally comparable!

I was certain that "Phoenicians" was there as a joke, never would have imagined it's what people from Phoenix are really called :O
