30. The George Jones Television ___(on TNN!) GEorge Jones had five concerts scheduled in five different cities. Each was unique in that each city had a special encore song, and each city had a minor annoyance to deal with. Each city's fans bought a particular item from the vendors.Using the six clues given, can you determine the order of cities for the concerts, the encore played in each, the items the fans bought at that concert, and the problems his road crew had in each city?
DISCLAIMER This is a hypothetical tour and series of events created for this logic problem only. The use of George Jones' name is for entertainment purposes only and does not imply that he actually was served very cold coffee in one of these cities.
Your Clues
- On the first stop on his tour George sang "He Stopped Loving Her Today" to an enthusiastic crowd that didn't buy any T-shirts or coffee mugs.
- The stops in some order were : The second stop in a city without mosquitoes, the city where George sang "The Door," the city where the fans bought ODs, Cincinnati, and the city with the very cold coffee.
- The concert in Seattle was not the first or the last stop on the tour. Seattle fans did not buy posters or coffee mugs and they did not get to hear "If My Heart Had Windows".
- The stops along the five city tour included the city where the bus developed a flat tire, the sunny city where George sang "If My Heart Had Windows," Boston, the city where the fans bought mostly books, and the CD buying city plagued by mosquitoes during his outdoor concert there.
- Houston's concert was held after the concert where the fans stood in a pouring rain. The rainy city followed the acoustic concert caused by a blown amplifier. The other two stops on the tour were the city where George sang "Walk Through This World With Me" and where he sold a lot of his autobiography, "I Lived To Tell It All".
- The five cities in no particular order are : The poster buying third city, the city where George played "Love Bug" to a packed house, the city where the fans bought T-shirts, the city with very cold coffee, and the rainy city on the fourth stopover which wasn't Seattle.
Good luck!

Rules For Play 1. Players start with no cards. All cards are held in a Draw pile. Each player may hold up to but no more than seven cards. If more than seven cards are accumulated by any player or players during a turn, they must immediately either play or discard the excess amount to get back to seven cards or less. All cards are discarded face down so no one will know what cards are no longer available. No turn is completed until all players have seven cards or less in their hand.2. Game play starts by rolling two dice. The player with the highest roll goes first, the play continues in clockwise fashion. The first turn is always the roll of two dice. Successive rolls are determined by the space landed upon.
3. Players rolling doubles on two dice during their turn must give one card to each other player. The cards are to be drawn at random by the players in current turn sequence. If insufficient cards are available, this penalty is ended with the final card. No cards are to be taken from the Draw pile.
4. Players landing on the Gold Path space must enter the Gold Path on their next turn. All rolls along the Gold Path are of a single die.
5. All player's chart position is to begin at 80 with their movements up the charts determined by the amount of trios and quartets formed during play. Albums move 2 spaces up the chart for each trio formed and 5 spaces up the chart for each quartet. Trios and quartets formed during a player's turn are displayed to the other players, then discarded face down into the discard pile.
6. If a player's album lands on an occupied space on the Music Chart, their album wins that chart position. The losing album moves down the chart one space. If that space is also occupied, the album on that space then moves one space downward. No two albums may occupy the same chart position.
7. Shuffle the Discard pile when the last card is taken from the Draw pile. Place the shuffled cards in the Draw pile.
8. Players without cards or with insufficient cards to fulfill their turn's requirement are not penalized. The play continues after the final card is taken, even if an opponent did not receive the card or cards promised by that player's space. Penalties are forfeited after the final card is removed.
