Crap. But that's a guess really. (Not that my other answers weren't...)

Crap. I have been there, and it was not all that big. I mean, it is big, but not humongous. There has to be a bigger one somewhere.

Crap! I thought it was St. John's in New York City but am not sure.

(I know Sea, just wanted you to know I was thinking about you.)

Enquiring minds wanted to know, so I looked it up and now I do.

Greetings and salutations, you FoCers! Hope you had a lovely first full day of spring. Here, the sunshine yesterday made the daffodils bloom, only to have them be rained on today. Ah, spring!

The question of the moment is:

Is Notre Dame in Paris, France, the world's largest Gothic cathedral?

notre dame

You said:
Fact 3
Crap 12

Well, either y'all are really smart, great guessers, or just plain lucky, 'cause the Calendar Catholics have this to say:

It's CRAP! "The world's largest Gothic cathedral is the Cathedral of St. John the Divine on Amsterdam Avenue and 112th Street, in New York City. The cathedral measures 601 feet long, 146 feet wide, and has a transept measuring 320 feet from end to end."
cathedral
Transept? Huh??? And how come they didn't give us the Notre Dame measurements for contrast? Enquiring minds wanna know!!

Okay, moving along. . .

In the 1960s, Baskin-Robbins stocked a flavor called Beatle Nut.

FACT or CRAP? You decide!

Fact, but the Baskin-Robbins misspelled it. It was really a tribute to the VW Bug.

Trust me, I was alive in the 60's, I remember it well.

I still say it is only the world's largest 'Gothic-Style' cathedral. A web search says that Milan's Duomo cathedral is the largest 'Gothic' cathedral in the world. There, now that I got that off my chest....

I agree OG. I googled and it's Milan that is Gothic, not gothic style! :-)

For the Beatle Nut flavor? Fact-ilicious. (Er, I think the "ilicious" part. I can't say I ever tasted it!)
