HS round1question7

Ryan: Andy, pick a square.

Andy: Jerry

 

 

Ryan: Jerry, Its previous name was Transjordan.  What do we now
 know it as? 

Jerry: The Chicago Bulls locker room.   (laughter) Heh heh... 
Bottom right square, Laugh Central.  Actually, I'd say... hmmmm... 
"Trans" would be some transportation dealie, so I'm going with AmTrak.

Andy: I'll have to disagree. I think it has something to do with Jordan

Ryan: Transjordan is the  previous name of The country of Jordan. 
In 1946, Transjordan (now Jordan) became a kingdom as it proclaimed
 its new monarch, King Abdullah Ibn Ul-Hussein. X gets the square.
