NYT Strands Today (Game #769): The Answers
The answers to today’s Strands game number 769 are…
- BERET
- HAT
- DERBY
- BOWLER
- FEDORA
- CAP
- TOQUE
- SPANGRAM: TOPGEAR
- My rating: Hard
- My score: Perfect
The “you’re kidding me” theme had me briefly searching for the phrase “just kidding,” which would have been the perfect spangram, but there wasn’t even a letter K.
It was at this point that I decided it must have something to do with clothing and after watching BOINA it seemed that the clothing in question were hats.
I managed to spot most of the TOPGEAR in our search, but TOQUE wouldn’t have found it unless it was the last one, although I now know it’s a variant of the humble BEANIE.
