Thread: A Guessing Game

To pass the time while our plane was being de-iced, the
flight attendants played a trivia game with the passengers.

They asked us to guess the total number of years the three
of them had worked for the airlines.

After an attendant collected our estimates, we heard the
announcement:

"The correct answer is 26 years.
For the two people who came closest with 28 years, we have prizes.
And for the passenger in seat 12F who guessed 85 years, would you please step off the plane - once we are airborne."
