Spots for swingers crossword clue
73 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 11, 2026 · 8 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Spots for swingers” is TRAPEZES. It appears as 73 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 11, 2026, a Saturday puzzle titled “Standard-Bearers” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 8 squares running left to right from row 13, column 1 of the 21×21 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with T and ends with S, and contains 3 vowels and 5 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. This weekend puzzle uses the largest grid of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
