Stones on Jeopardy!
Posted by: JohnnySnapps ()

Watching Jeopardy tonight, they are doing a Teen Tournament, and this answer came up: "This singer is shown with his pal Keith Richards when they were both barely out of their teens." (The picture was Mick and Keith from a 60's era tv appearance.)
Was expecting a buzzer fairly quickly, but instead there was nothing but silence! Although I could hear a couple of audience members chuckling at the fact that not one of the contestants knew who he was.
These kids today...

I saw that, too. Generations gap. On the other hand, I can't answer any questions on any episode of Jeopardy regarding current music, television shows, celebrities and so forth as I pay no attention to such. It wouldn't surprise me if a number of people on this site were in a similar position.

And funny enough... I would bet that at least one of those contestants owns/has worn a shirt with a Stones tongue on it.

By 2050 all members of the Stones will be gone and sadly they will be nothing but a memory and a trivia question.

Yeah, they would probably make a category, name it something like "Gathers No Moss"
Tie it back to millennials...

"This song from their 1967 album 'Their Satanic Majesties Request' was used in a car commercial more than forty years later."

or...

"This front man "Moves Like" the Stones' front man"

etc...

Hmmm - I got 11 on the Mastermind questions, but as dmay says, I don't know much about recent pop.

If you watch every night you will see the Stones are a clue quite often.
