MEMORY TEST!

This is NOT a pushover test. There are 20 questions. Average score is 12. It will help if you are 60 or over! This one will be difficult for some of you younger set.

Actually, I found it to be pretty easy. I got them all right. I did guess right on two of them. Of course, I'm old.

20 out of 20 but then again I'm an old fart, uh dirty old man :D
 
I had a perfect score. :D But, then again, I'm old. ;)
 
10/20

Which I consider awesome for a 32 year old. And more to the point, a non American.
 
Got 18, missed Wonder Bread and Brylcreme ones. I'm not so old that I remember most of these slogans first run, but not so young that I haven't heard about/seen most of them at some point in my life.
 
I got 20 out of 20, which is more than I can say for the questioner. Joe Namath didn't wear stockings. He wore panty hose. :eek:

They could have said Wonder Bread builds strong bodies eight ways, because that was an earlier slogan.

Migod, I am old. :eek:

ETA: Not only I didn't guess on any of them, I knew the correct answer BEFORE seeing the possible answers.

Ancient, I am. :eek:
 
That was definitely a 60's kid quiz. Perfect score.

I think the majority of them were from the Fifties. There were even some from the Forties, and a few from the Sixties.

ETA: Lions and tigers and bears, oh my was from Wizard of Oz, in 1939.
