The available clue-and-answer list confirms nine entries, but not 3-Down, so this is not a complete answer key. Spoilers below.
Across answers
- 1-Across: BOO — paired with 8-Across for a knock-knock joke response before “Don’t cry!”
- 4-Across: CHORD — group of musical notes.
- 6-Across: RINSE — washing machine cycle before “spin.”
- 7-Across: EGGOS — popular frozen waffles.
- 8-Across: WHO — paired with 1-Across.
Down answers
- 1-Down: BONGO — open-bottomed hand drum.
- 2-Down: ORSO — words of approximation.
- 3-Down: The clue is “Poems written in tribute,” but its fill could not be confirmed from the available published answer excerpt. No answer is supplied here rather than guessing.
- 4-Down: CREW — specification for T-shirt necklines or socks.
- 5-Down: HIGH — “STONED.”
The nine confirmed fills and clue wording appear in Erik Kain’s Forbes entry for the November 20, 2024 puzzle: Today’s NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers For Wednesday, November 20th.
