Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | You think Steve Worrall's scavenger hunts are hard? HA, wait til you try to figure Slamr's Impossible Trivia Contest II out. Okuma and Professional Edge Rods have challenged me personally to come up with a contest so hard that even the smartest of muskie fishermen can't possibly figure out and below is what you are now set to attempt to tackle!
There are ONLY SEVEN measley paragraphs filled with trivia from history, sports, music, movies and the like....now you have to figure out the right answers to the words that AREN'T there. It's basically fill in the blanks....how hard can that be?
Only seven paragraphs you will see below, but yeah, there's 294 blanks to fill in!!! Like I said, it's basically impossible. BUT, you don't need to fill in ALL the blanks to win, because realistically no one will be able to....at least I don't think no one human can. There will be TWO winners to this contest: the grand prize winner is he/she that figures out the LAST blank, and the second prize goes to the person who fills in the MOST blanks.
Here is an EXAMPLE of what you will need to do:
EXAMPLE PHRASE WITH BLANKS
In the movie The __1__ __2__ __3__, __4__ instructs Luke __5__ on his path to becoming a __6__.
is really.....
In the movie Empire (1) Strikes (2) Back (3), Yoda (4) instructs Luke Skywalker (5) on his path to becomind a Jedi (7).
Pretty easy, eh?
Please post your answers/guesses to the blanks by COPYING AND PASTING the answers with blanks filled in, with (#) next to what you have filled in, so I can easily see what you are answering.
Remember, first place is the person that fills in the LAST blank, and second prize is to the person who fills in the MOST blanks. First prize will be a new Induron IDX-400A (or lefty if need be) from Okuma Fishing http://www.okumafishing.com and second prize is a three pack of Krook topwater baits from Professional Edge http://www.proedgefishing.com/
Below are the phrases with blanks....GOOD LUCK!!!!
1. The earliest song (Seilers) on the top American (Seilers) Film (Seilers) Institute (Seilers) 100 songs (Seilers) was “Isnt (k-bob) it romantic (k-bob)” from “Love (Seilers) me Tonight (Seilers).” In the movie “Moonstruck (k-bob),” Loretta’s Uncle (Seilers) Raymond (Seilers) is singing that song in his deli (Seilers), the night after “Cosmo's (Seilers) Moon (demolishedyou)” wakes him up, and he makes love (K-bob) to his wife (k-bob). Moonstruck (rpike) was nominated (K-bob) for 6 academy awards, and walked away with the Oscar (K-bob) for Best Actress (k-bob) in a Leading (K-bob) Role (k-bob) (Cher), Best Actress (rpike) in a Supporting (rpike) Role (Olympia Dukakis (k-bob)), and Best Writing (Seilers), Best (rpike) Screenplay (Seilers) Directly for the Screen (rpike) (John Patrick (K-bob) Shanley (K-bob)). In the list of Top 100 Heroes (rpike) and Villians (rpike), Addicus (rpike) Finch (played by Gregory (rpike) Peck (rpike) in To (rpike) Kill (rpike) a Mockingbird) is the number one hero, while Dr. Hanibal (rpike) Lecter (rpike) is the number one villian (rpike). In that list there are 17 (Seilers) real heroes, while only 5 (Medford Fisher) real villians (rpike).
2. The movie “300,” (Medford Fisher) originally was a Graphic (Medford Fisher) Novel (Medford Fisher) by Frank (Medford Fisher) Miller, tells the story of King (Medford Fisher) Leonidis (Medford Fisher), played by Gerald (Medford Fisher) Butler (Medford) who was the Spartan (Medford Fisher) king who lead 300 (Medford Fisher) men to stay behind at Thermopylae (Seilers) to fight the Persian (Medford Fisher) King Xerses’s (Medford Fisher) army. The test of manhood for a Spartan (Seilers) male consisted of Kyrpteia (Seilers), through which they proved their ability to lead by killing (Seilers) a Helot (Seilers), or Spartan (Seilers) slave, without getting caught (Seilers).
3. The history of serial killers (demolished you) has been long documented. There is Jack the Ripper (demolished) made famous for killing countless prostitutes (rpike) in London (rpike) and never having been caught (rpike). Henry Herman (Seilers) Holmes (Seilers) was introduced to us through “Devil (Seilers) in the White (Seilers) City (Seilers),” which juxtaposed his untold number of murders with the Columbian (Seilers) Exposition (Seilers) of 1893 (Seilers). And then there’s the most famous Milwaukee based serial killer, Jeffrey (rpike) Dahmer (rpike). From Wisconsin there is also Ed Gein, of Plainfield (NWild), Wisconsin. The story of his life—and his practice of using body (NWild) parts for decoration (Seilers)—was made into the movie, “In the Light (rpike) of the Moon (rpike),” though it was called just “Ed (rpike) Gein (rpike)” for American audiences. But for every household name, there are others, such as Carl Panzam (Seilers), who after being sentenced to death (Seilers) over crushing another inmate’s skull (Seilers) in Leavenworth (Seilers) on June 20 (demolishedyou), 1929 (demolishedyou), uttered these famous last (Norm) words:
“Hurry (Seilers) it up you bastar** (Seilers). I could hang (Seilers) a dozen (Seilers) men while you’re fooling (Seilers) around.”
4.Air (rpike) combat has evolved in the last 100+ years, but to be considered an “ace” (rpike), one must down at least five (rpike) enemies. The term first gained popularity in World (rpike) War (rpike) One (rpike), when a French (NWild) newspaper described Adolphe Pegoud (NWild) as one for his accomplishments. Manfred (Nwild) Von (rpike) Richtofen is believed to be the leading ace in World (rpike) War (rpike) I. A study conducted by English (Seilers) historian Norman (Seilers) Franks (Seilers) with two colleagues, published in Under (Seilers) the (Seilers) Guns (Seilers) of the Red Baron (rpike) in 1998, concluded that at least 73 (Seilers) of Richthofen's claimed kills (rpike) were accurate. During World (rpike) War (rpike) Two (rpike), another German, Erich “Bubi” (Seilers) Hartmann (Seilers) led all fighter (rpike) pilots with 352 (Seilers) kills. Hartmann (Seilers) flew most of his missions versus the Soviets (Seilers) on the Eastern (rpike) Front, was forced to crash (Seilers) land (Seilers) his damaged fighter (Seilers) 14 (Seilers) times, flew much of his career with the famous Jadgeschwender (Seilers) 52 (Seilers) unit and eventually surrendered to the US (Seilers) 90th Infantry (Seilers) Division (Seilers). Richard (Seilers) Bong (Seilers) was the leading U.S. ace (rpike) of World War Two (rpike) with 40 (NWild) kills, while fighting in the Pacific Theatre (rpike) versus the Japanese (rpike). This score set while flying a Lockheed (Seilers) P-38 (Seilers) surpassed the earlier American best, set in World (rpike) War (rpike) One by Eddie (rpike) Rickenbacher (rpike).
5. The word Scientology (rpike) literally means "the study (rpike) of truth." It comes from the Latin (rpike) word "scio" (Seilers) meaning "knowing (Seilers) in the fullest (Seilers) sense (Seilers) of the word" and the Greek (Seilers) word "logos" meaning "study (rpike) of (rpike)." The central practice of Scientology (Seilers) is "auditing" (Seilers) (from the Latin (Seilers) word audire (Seilers), "to listen" (Seilers)), which is a one-on-one communication with a trained Scientology (Medford Fisher) counselor or "auditor". Most auditing (Seilers) uses an e-meter (Seilers), a device that measures very small changes in electrical (Seilers) resistance (Seilers) through the human (Seilers) body (Seilers) when a person is holding onto tin (Seilers) cans (Seilers) and a small current (Seilers) is passed through them. Founded by L Ron (rpike) Hubbard (rpike), Scientology (rpike) now counts as members notables such as Tom (rpike) Cruise (rpike) and wife Katie (rpike) Holmes, John (rpike) Travolta, Jason (NWild) Lee, and Isaac (rpike) Hayes. Another religion with rising popularity is Kabbalah (Seilers), which is an aspect of Jewish (Seilers) mysticism.
6. Okuma (rpike) Fishing began as an OEM (NWild) around 22 (EsFishOX) years ago, building reels (rpike) for other manufacturers. They will soon be introducing a line up of __196__ rods (rpike), up to 8'6" (NWild) in length (telescoping). These will be featured under the EVX (NWild) series. Okuma (rpike) is committed to putting out quality products at affordable prices with the Induron (NWild) reel retailing at $119.99 (NWild), and the __203__ selling for around $__204__. On MuskieFIRST for information on Okuma (NWild), you can always drop a PM to Mark Rogers (NWild), who goes under the name of California (NWild) Muskie (NWild) on the board. Mark is a dedicated big bass (NWild) angler, but was able to land three (Seilers) muskies over 50” (rpike) while fishing Mille (NWild) Lacs (NWild) in 2006.
7. The NFL was first formed in 1920 as the American (demolishedyou) Professional (demo) Football Association (Medford Fisher), changing to the name National Football League in 1922 (Seilers). The original league President (medford fisher), Jim Thorpe (Medford Fisher) presided over a league of 11 teams. These teams were the Canton (DemolishedYou) Bulldogs, Celeveland (DemolishedYou)Tigers, Dayton Triangles (Demolishedyou), Akron Professionals, Rochester Jeffersons, Rock (demo) Island Independents (Demolishedyou), Muncie (Demolishedyou) Flyers, Decatur Stayles (Demolishedyou), Chicago Cardinals (Demolishedyou), and the Hammond Pros. Because of angered NFL owners, in particular the Chicago Cardinals (Seilers), the AFL (Demolishedyou) was first organized in July 1959 (Demolishedyou), with 8 teams. Those teams were the Boston (Demolishedyou) Patriots, Buffalo (Seilers) Bills (Seilers), Dallas Texans (Demolishedyou), Denver Broncos (Demolishedyou), Houston (Seilers) Oilers (Seilers), Los Angeles Chargers, New (Seilers) York (Seilers) Titans (Seilers), and Oakland (rpike) Raiders. The AFL lasted until Lamar (NWild) NWild (NWild) and Hank (rpike) Schramm completed the basic groundwork for a merger (rpike) of the two leagues by the end of May (Seilers), and on June (NWild) 8th, 1966 (NWild) the merger was officially announced. The most serious challenge to the NFL since it’s inception came from the USFL (Seilers), or United (Seilers) States Football (Seilers) League (Seilers). The USFL (Seilers) was the brainchild of David (Seilers) Dixon (Seilers), a New Orleans entrepreneur who in the 1960s envisioned football as a possible Spring (Seilers) and Summer (Seilers) sport. In the early 1980s, Dixon gathered a group of owners from 12 (Seilers) cities and announced the league's launch on May 11, 1082 (Seilers), to begin play in 1983. The inaugural game featured the Washington (Seilers) Federals (Seilers) versus the Chicago (Seilers) Blitz, played on March 6th (Seilers), 1983 (Seilers). However, the league was not the success that owners had envisioned and in February (Seilers) 1986, the USFL (Seilers) reduced the number of teams from 14 (Seilers) teams to 8 (Seilers) teams. Houston merged with New Jersey (Seilers), and Denver (Seilers) with Jacksonville (Seilers). San (seiler) Antonio, Oakland (Seilers), Los Angeles and Memphis (NWild) folded. The remaining teams were put into two new Divisions (Seliers), the Independence (Seilers) and Liberty (Seilers) divisions. On July (Seilers) 29th (Seilers), 1986 a Jury (Seilers) concluded that the NFL was in violation of the Sherman (Seilers) Anti (Seilers)-trust Act (Seilers) by conspiring to monopolize (Seilers) professional football, and that they did illegally damage the USFL (NWild). The jury awarded the USFL (NWild) $1 (Seilers) in damages. The league suspended play before the 1986 (Seilers) season. Notable owners included Donald (Seilers) Trump (Seilers), who ran the New Jersey (Seilers) Generals (Seilers), and a number of players such as Herschel (Seilers)Walker who was the leading rusher (Seilers) in the league’s history and Jim Kelly (Seilers) who threw the most touchdowns (ghoti) in the league’s short history.

I will ATTEMPT to keep up with all answers by telling you right or wrong, then filling in the answer on the original post. AND, if need be, will post an updated blanks vs. right answers sheet in the body of the thread of hopefully many responses.
As of 8:30PM Monday night, you only need ONE right answer to be the leader. Just one. Heck, there are 10 in there that you can get by me using the word later in the paragraph.

For the "answers for everyone to see" question: I am filling in the blanks, with the name of the person who answered it in a (***name***)
The first person to respond with the right answer to a blank gets credit. I am going to try to be diligent on this one, but I do need to get up from the desk to do things such as eating and using the washroom. |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | It is now 11:25. After 5 hours spent doing this today, after a lot more than that in the last few weeks making these questions...that you are all ripping through at an amazing pace, I am packing it in for the evening.
SO....if you want to see other questions you can answer, by all means, put your guesses down. BUT, if you guys havent noticed I am "grading" each answer in order. MEANING: if someone else already posted whatever the numbered blank is already in an earlier post on this thread, they are getting credit for it. First answered, first credit, only credit for that answer. SO, you figure out how you want to play it...and KNOW THAT I AM VERY UPSET YOU ARE GETTING THIS MANY THIS FAST, AND WILL BE PUTTING MORE BLANKS IN TOMORROW! I AM NOT TO BE DEFEATED THIS EASILY.
ALSO: remember there are TWO prizes...one for answering the MOST questions on this, and one for getting the LAST ONE!!! SO, sweep up what you see now...I figure by the time I get back in my office tomorrow morning, all these easy answers will be done....but if there is even ONE left, it ain't over! AND, I do have at least one other paragraph to put in to keep you busy.
Good luck and thanks to all who are keeping me in front of the computer for hours and end, and thanks to our sponsors Okuma Fishing and Professional Edge Rods for sponsoring the contest. If you're looking for a great durable reel at a great price, check out the Okuma Induron 400a. If you're looking for a well-built, easy casting rod to mate it on to, check out Professional Edge Rods! |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | I have to go to a lunch meeting....but I can say for sure, there are still a whole bunch that have not been answered. Remember, the GRAND PRIZE (Okuma Induron 400) goes to the person with the LAST answer. Seilers and Norm have answered many many MANY blanks, but that last one.... |

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Though I havent officially gone through all the "answers" given for the blanks not filled in yet....I still believe there to be over a dozen open blanks yet to be completed.
Seilers LOOKS to have the lead in MOST answers right....BUT, the GRAND PRIZE is yet to be rewarded, because there are still blanks open...
This is what you will win:

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | There are only SEVEN blanks left. At his point, Seilers has by far the most right answers, and has the last answer to date. Thusly he would be the winner. Unless there are no new entries that are RIGHT, I am closing this contest this Friday, October 5th.
And yes, I have lazily dragged this out far too long. So, either you brainiacs find the answers to the last 7 and unseat Seilers, or you hang your heads like dogs knowing you were beating by a measely Medical Pathologist.

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Below is the original, without answers:
Trivia Contest
1. The earliest __1__ on the top __2__ __3__ __4__ 100 __5__ was “__6__ __7__ romantic” from “__8__ me __9__.” In the movie “__10__,” Loretta’s __11__ __12__ is singing that song in his __13__, the night after “__14__ __15__” wakes him up, and he makes __16__ to his __17__. __18__ was __19__ for 6 __20__ awards, and walked away with the __21__ for Best __22__ in a __23__ __24__ (Cher), Best __25__ in a __26__ Role (Olympia __27__), and Best __29__, __30__ __31__ Directly for the __32__ (John __33__ __34__). In the list of Top 100 __35__ and __36__, __37__ Finch (played by __38__ __39__ in __40__ __41__ a __42__) is the number one hero, while Dr. __43__ __44__ is the number one __45__. In that list there are __46__ real heroes, while only __47__ real __48__.
2. The movie “__49__,” originally was a __50__ __51__ by __52__ Miller, tells the story of __53__ __54__, played by __55__ __56__ who was the __57__ king who lead __58__ men to stay behind at __59__ to fight the __60__ King __61__’s army. The test of manhood for a __62__ male consisted of __63__, through which they proved their ability to lead by __64__ a __65__, or __66__ slave, without getting __67__.
3. The history of serial __68__ has been long documented. There is Jack the __69__, made famous for killing countless __70__ in __71__—and never having been __72__. __73__ __74__ was introduced to us through “__75__ in the __76__ __77__,” which juxtaposed his untold number of murders with the __78__ __79__ of __80__. And then there’s the most famous Milwaukee based serial killer, __81__ __82__. From Wisconsin there is also Ed __83__, of __84__, Wisconsin. The story of his life—and his practice of using __85__ parts for __86__—was made into the movie, “In the __87__ of the __88__,” though it was called just “__89__ __90__” for American audiences. But for every household name, there are others, such as Carl __91__, who after being sentenced to __92__ over crushing another inmate’s __93__ in __94___ on June __95__, __96__, uttered these famous __97__ words:
“__98__ it up you __99__. I could __100__ a __101__ men while you’re __102__ around.”
4. __103__ combat has evolved in the last 100+ years, but to be considered an “__104__”, one must down at least __105__ __106__. The term first gained popularity in __107__ __108__ __109__, when a __110__ newspaper described Adolphe __111__ as one for his accomplishments. __112__ __113__ Richtofen is believed to be the leading ace in __114__ __115__ I. A study conducted by __116__ historian __117__ __118__ with two colleagues, published in __119__ __120__ __121__ of the Red __122__ in 1998, concluded that at least __123__ of Richthofen's claimed __124__ were accurate. During __125__ __126__ __127__, another German, Erich “__128__” __129__ led all __130__ pilots with __131__ kills. __132__ flew most of his missions versus the __133__ on the __134__ Front, was forced to __135__ __136__ his damaged __137__ __138__ times, flew much of his career with the famous __139__ __140__ unit and eventually surrendered to the __141__ 90th __142__ __143__. __144__ __145__ was the leading U.S. __146__ of World War __147__ with __148__ kills, while fighting in the Pacific __148__ versus the __149__. This score set while flying a __150__ __151__surpassed the earlier American best, set in __152__ __153__ 154__ by __155__ __156__.
5. The word __157__ literally means "the __158__ of truth."

Trivia Contest
1. The earliest song on American Film Institute’s top 100 songs was “Isn’t it romantic” from “Love me Tonight.” In the movie “Moonstruck,” Loretta’s Uncle Raymond is singing that song in his deli, the night after Cosmo’s moon wakes him up, and he makes love to his wife. Moonstruck was nominated for 6 academy awards, and walked away with the oscar for Best Actress in a Leading role (Cher), Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Olympia Dukakis), and Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen (John Patrick Shanley). In the list of Top 100 Heroes and Villains, Atticus Finch (played by Gregory Peck in To Kill a Mockingbird) is the number one hero, while Dr. Hannibal Lecter is the number one villain. In that list there are 17 real heros, while only 5 real villains.
2. The “300,” originally was a graphic novel by Frank Miller, tells the story of King Leonidas, played by Gerald Butler, who was the Spartan king who lead 300 men to stay behind at Thermonpoylae to fight the Persian King Xerxes army. The test of manhood for a Spartan male consisted of Krypteia, through which they proved their ability to lead by killing a Helot, or Spartan slave, without getting caught.
3. The history of serial killers has been long documented. There is Jack the Ripper, made famous for killing countless prostitutes in England—and never having been caught. H.H. Holmes was introduced to us through “Devil in the White City,” which juxtaposed his untold number of murders with the Columbian Expedition of 1893. And then there’s the most famous Milwaukee based serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer. From Wisconsin there is also Ed Gein, of Plainfield, Wisconsin. The story of his life—and his practice of using body parts for decoration—was made into the movie, “In the Light of the Moon,” though it was called just “Ed Gein” for American audiences. But for every household name, there are others, such as Carl Panzram, who after being sentenced to hang over crushing another inmate’s skull in Leavenworth on June 20, 1929, uttered these famous last words:
“Hurry it up you bastards. I could hang a dozen men while you’re fooling around.”
4. Air combat has evolved in the last 100+ years, but to be considered an “ace”, one must down at least 5 planes. The term first gained popularity in World War I, when a French newspaper described Adolphe Pegoud as one for his accomplishments. Manfred Von Richtohfen is believed to be the leading ace in World War I. A study conducted by British historian Norman Franks with two colleagues, published in Under the Guns of the Red Baron in 1998, concluded that at least 73 of Richthofen's claimed victories were accurate. During World War II, another German, Erich “Bubi” Hartmann led all fighter pilots with 352 kills. Hartmann flew most of his missions versus the Soviets on the Eastern Front, was forced to crash land his damaged fighter 14 times, flew much of his career with the famous Jagdgeschwader 52 unit and eventually surrendered to the American 90th US Infantry Division. Richard Bong was the leading U.S. ace of World War II with 40 kills, while fighting in the Pacific Theatre versus the Japanese. This score set while flying a Lockheed P-38 surpassed the earlier American best, set in World War I by Eddie Rickenbacher.
5. In telecom, the quadruple play refers to the packaging of wireline, wireless, cable and video. Many companies hope to offer features such as using your phone—either wireless or wireline—to program your digital video recorder when you’re away from home. For now, though, features such as Caller ID on the TV are standard fare.
6. The word Scientology literally means "the study of truth." It comes from the Latin word "scio" meaning "knowing in the fullest sense of the word" and the Greek word "logos" meaning "study of." The central practice of Scientology is "auditing" (from the Latin word audire, "to listen"), which is a one-on-one communication with a trained Scientology counselor or "auditor". Most auditing uses an E-meter, a device that measures very small changes in electrical resistance through the human body when a person is holding onto tin cans and a small current is passed through them. Founded by L Ron Hubbard, Scientology now counts as members notables such as Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes, John Travolta, Jason Lee, and Isaac Hayes. Another religion with rising popularity is Kabbalah, which is an aspect of Jewish mysticism.

9. The NFL was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association, changing to the name National Football League in 1922. The original league president, Jim Thorpe presided over a league of 11 teams. These teams were the Canton Bulldogs, Cleveland Tigers, Dayton Triangles, Akron Professionals, Rochester Jeffersons, Rock Island Independents, Muncie Flyers, Decatur Stayles, Chicago Cardinals, and the Hammond Pros. Because of angered NFL owners, in particular the Chicago Cardinals, the AFL was first organized in July 1959, with 8 teams. Those teams were the Boston Patriots, Buffalo Bills, Dallas Texans, Denver Broncos, Houston Oilers, Los Angeles Chargers, New York Titans, and Oakland Raiders. The AFL lasted until Lamar Hunt and Tex Schramm completed the basic groundwork for a merger of the two leagues by the end of May, and on June 8, 1966 the merger was officially announced. The most serious challenge to the NFL since it’s inception came from the USFL, or United States Football League. The USFL was the brainchild of David Dixon, a New Orleans entrepreneur who in the 1960s envisioned football as a possible spring and summer sport. In the early 1980s, Dixon gathered a group of owners from twelve cities and announced the league's launch on May 11, 1982, to begin play in 1983. The inaugural game featured the Washington Federals versus the Chicago Blitz, played on March 6th, 1983. However, the league was not the success that owners had envisioned and in February 1986, the USFL reduced the number of teams from 14 teams to 8 teams. Houston merged with New Jersey, and Denver with Jacksonville. San Antonio, Oakland, Los Angeles and Portland folded. The remaining teams were put into two new divisions, the Liberty and Independence divisions. On July 29, 1986 a jjury concluded that the NFL is in violation of the Sherman Anti-trust Laws by conspiring to monopolize professional football, and that they did illegally damage the USFL. The jury awarded the USFL $1 dollar in damages. The league suspended play before the 1986 season. Notable owners included Donald Trump, who ran the New Jersey Generals, and a number of players such as Herschel Walker who was the leading rusher in the league’s history and Jim Kelly who threw the most touchdowns in the league’s short history. In addition to producing many NFL players, the USFL also produced at least 2 future World Champion professional wrestlers: Lex Luger and Ron Simmons. Another more minor challenger to the NFL was the XFL, which only played one season, 2001. Created as a joint venture of NBC and the World Wrestling Federation, the XFL attempted to create an “extreme” football atmosphere featuring trash-talking announcers and scanitly clad cheerleaders. Tommy Maddox was the leagues one and only MVP, and went on to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
8. Former President Boris Yeltsin, who hastened the collapse of the Soviet Union by scrambling atop a tank to rally opposition against a hard-line coup and later pushed Russia to embrace democracy and a market economy, died Monday April 23 2007 at age 76. His father, Nikolai Yeltsin, was convicted of anti-Soviet agitation in 1934 and sentenced to hard labor in a gulag for three years. On June 12, 1991, Yeltsin won 57% of the popular vote in the democratic presidential elections for the Russian republic, defeating Gorbachev's preferred candidate, Nikolai Ryzhkov. On August 18, 1991, a coup against Gorbachev was launched by hardline communists headed by Vladimir Kryuchkov. Gorbachev was held in Crimea while Yeltsin raced to the White House of Russia (residence of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR) in Moscow to defy the coup. The White House was surrounded by the military but the troops defected in the face of mass popular demonstrations. Yeltsin responded to the coup by making a memorable speech from the turret of a tank. In July 1996, Yeltsin was re-elected as president with financial support from influential business oligarchs who owed their wealth to their connections with Yeltsin's administration. Despite only gaining 35% of the first round vote in the 1996 elections, Yeltsin successfully defeated his communist rival Gennady Zyuganov in the runoff election. Later that year, Yeltsin underwent heart bypass surgery and remained in the hospital for months. On December 31, 1999, in a surprise announcement made live on Russian television, Yeltsin said Prime Minister Vladimir Putin would take over as acting president, with elections due to take place on March 26, 2000.
