Nester featured on NPR puzzle program
Bufftonite Darryl Nester was the talented and lucky contestant to match wits with National Public Radio’s puzzle master Will Shortz on the Sunday, July 21 program.
With the support of host Ayesha Rascoe, Nester performed nicely in a live puzzle quiz that he said left him “relieved.”
Nester had his name drawn from among 900 listeners who correctly answered this challenge:
Think of a famous actor and a famous actress who co-starred in a classic movie of the past. The actress's first name, when reversed, and the actor’s last name, spelled forward, are similar romantic gifts. Who are these film stars?
He told Shortz and Rascoe that he has been following the program for some 28 years.
