Nice quiz! Maybe future additions could include people like Mark Twain, PT Barnum, George HW Bush and Noah Webster. Other possibilities could include the two casinos, the Hartford Whalers and UConn basketball. Yes, I live in Connecticut, thanks!

Thanks! I may add more to the quiz in the future, I definitely neglected some interesting facts especially since I've been to Connecticut quite a few times.
