We asked some really tough questions of our readers, who are pretty dang smart about Dallas history. But of all the responses we received only one person could win! Drumroll please!!!
CONGRATULATIONS ASHLEY LEECOCK!
Ashley was the Quick Draw McGraw of the 12 correct replies we received. Participants had to answer all three questions correctly. In fact, we got one response that made us second-guess the answer to question No. 2. So we had to consult Dallas City Archivist John Slate for the answer.
