In the Sister Salad video, an athlete is cryptically referrenced.
Look carefully in the video for the surreptitious clues, as they may appear and/or disappear.
(hint #1: the athlete has many names -- first, last, nickname -- in common with an award-winning television journalist and interviewer.)
When you have the name of the athlete, type his full nickname into the box below to move on to Level 2.
(hint #2: one of clues is a bit blury in the video. not to worry. if you were thinking it looks like a flower of some sort, you are on the right track!)
