    Tough one for me. I kept being distracted by the jumping aspect of kangaroo and trampoline, so I followed that trail for a while.

    I found this one pretty easy. Didn't know about kangaroo courts before today but now I do.

    My bot said I'm 1 in a million today. I had no idea about the Olympics category so that was last for me (the leftovers), whereas immediately Chris is like "oh these are olympic sports" 😂

    I definitely made the tennis mistake.
    Breaking was added this year.

    I can’t say this for certain, but it seems like the green category is more likely to be verbs and the yellow is more likely to be nouns, when that scenario is present.

      Yes, the green is also usually more abstract, whereas the yellow is made up of concrete things.

      Not necessarily true.

    Breaking was only introduced in the 2024 Olympics so idk how it fits in that category. I literally used all 4 mistakes on different combinations of Olympic sports 😂

      I think it’s the 4 newest. Tennis is the oldest of the 5
      “Since 2000” might mean anytime after 2000

    I got yellow and green right away but then I got lost for a while because I had two perfectly wrong categories in my mind.
    Blue: "involving kicks" with breaking, kangaroo, surfing, taekwondo
    Purple: "____ court" with food, supreme, tennis, trampoline

    Not a fan of this one, though I'll grudgingly admit it wasn't as bad as some recent ones have been.

    First time in a while I haven't made a mistake! I love when the missing word category (if that's what purple is) jumps out at me like it did today!

    I got blue first. A bit of a risk with tennis in the grid, but I thought the category would be sports with judges.

    You were so close to a Reverse 🌈!! Here's a hint that I learned from others playing Connections well - usually the yellow category will be synonyms while the green will be fairly easy, but not synonyms. 😊
