They got the 1922 horn-blowing in Cedar Point Ohio right.
Whilst the roller coasters were whizzing by - God thought this was the place to do a trumpet blast from.

In answer to the OP title:
Name one Watchtower date that they got correct
Not one. Every single prediction and piece of speculation they've had went unfulfilled. Nothing they've ever said would happen has happened.
They will go down in history as a text book example of a false prophet.

Most of the JWs I've spoken to immediately say 1914, adding that no other religion was able to pinpoint that date except them. They were very proud of that accomplishment.
It's always worth bearing in mind two points on this.
1. They expected armageddon that year. They believed the last days began in 1799, 1914 was the endpoint.
2. They expected things to finish in October 1914. In June 1914 Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated then on August 4th, 1914 WW1 really began. There was no similarlity between their predictions and start of WW1. They pinpointed nothing.
The whole 1914 thing is a classic case of serendipity - a "fortunate happenstance". The WT has eaten out on it ever since.
I wonder how many of our parents/grandparents/great grandparents came in because 'they got 1914 right'...

Why can't you disprove what I quoted on top of the page? Congergations today are the earthly courtyard of Jehovah's spiritual temple.
David Jay did!
Look over his very indepth post on the previous page. To which you didn't reply to - just 'Nah you are' when he pointed out you were mistaken.
I don't everything because I haven't been studying for long.
You need to do more research. Otherwise like many of us here you waste years of your life on an ever changing faith driven my men changing their mind about what scriptures mean.
I can give you lots of scriptures that say earth is for man, and that their will be a Paradise.
Why don't you got away and research this point. Where is there a scripture that says in the future humans will live forever on a paradise earth. One which says all of that.
Just one.

They won't eat straw.
You know they are meat eaters right?

If you're understanding is that everyone becomes angels that is against what it says.
At no point have I ever suggested anything like that.
The angels in that passage are in heaven.
The same words are used on the great crowd. This tells you where the great crowd is.

Those passages are just poetic passages. Look:
He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth
God doesn't actually have a mouth, and there isn't a rod hanging out of it!
They're not meant to be taken literally.
They were written when the Jews were in exile. They were passages about the restoration of Israel!

A Believer...copy and pasting bits of the Bible isn't forming coherent logical arguments.
It just shows you know how to use ctrl c and ctrl v.

And I saw standing in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures and in the midst of the elders a lamb that seemed to have been slaughtered,having seven horns and seven eyes, and the eyes mean the seven spirits of God that have been sent out into the whole earth.
So where are the four living creatures?
Where are the elders?
The lamb?
