View Full Version : Who Am I?
I have this board game from A&E Biography called Who am I and thought we could play it on the board here. There are 5 clues to each person. I'll post the 1st clue and when 1 or more people have taken a shot at it I'll add the 2nd clue if no correct answer was posted and so on until the 5th and final clue. If there are no responses by the following day I'll add another clue. Some are a little harder then others. Let's see who can answer correctly with the fewest clues.Ok here goes.......
