After a year long hiatus, The Joker's Wild is finally back on the air! Kevin Kolsen is back as our returning champion. After his first win, he has a total of $27,088 in cash and prizes. Due to an ineligibility of a previous opponent, I'm looking for a new challenger to play against Kevin. If you want to participate, please let me know and be on standby. Showtime will begin first thing tomorrow.

Thank you, Tony. I'm an accountant from Long Island, New York and I've been working at a small accounting firm for four and a half years. In my spare time, I like video games, game shows, reading and writing fan-fiction.

And good luck to you, Kevin. Now that we've gotten to know our players, I'm gonna step aside while the projection screen opens up. Here are the categories for today's game. *open doors* [CATEGORIES CUE]We have DEMOCRATS, FOOTBALL, BROADWAY MUSICALS, ISLANDS, and finally... AMERICAN REVOLUTION. *close doors* And for those of you who are watching this for the first time, please allow me to explain some objectives. A single category is worth $100, a double category/pair is worth $200, and a triple is worth $400. The first player to reach $1,000 or more wins the game and the right to play the Face The Devil bonus round. Also on the wheels were Jokers, they're wild (hence the name of this show). The contestants can match up the Joker with any category they chose, and they can also use the Joker(s) to go off the board, and select a different category. But if at anytime three Jokers come up (that's Joker, Joker, JOKER!), that player can instantly win the game by answering one question from one category correctly; however, if unsuccessful, the opponent could not steal and the game continues as normal. Now you know... [DING]Greg... since you're the challenger, you will be going first. Whenever you're ready, pull the lever and let it go. |

Since I'm a Republican, I'll go with Football for $200.

Here comes your first clue and question... SPORTS - $200
In 1960, the American Football League was born. Lamar Hunt, founder of the league, was the principal owner of one of the AFL's original franchises. How many original AFL franchises were there when the league began in 1960?For $200, was the answer 8, 10, or 12? |

10.

Post by tmann3x on Sept 13, 2016 13:19:20 GMT -5
10 is incorrect. Kevin... is the correct answer 8 or 12? |
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Sept 13, 2016 20:32:31 GMT -5
I'll say 8.

Post by tmann3x on Sept 13, 2016 23:54:41 GMT -5
8 is the right answer. [APPLAUSE, DING]Now that you have your first $200, it's your turn to give it a spin. |

Let's go for it. $400 in the American Revolution.

Answer this question correctly and you'll be 1/3 away from winning your second game. Here comes this clue... AMERICAN REVOLUTION - $400
April 19, 1775 is considered by most historians to have been the official start of the American Revolution. "The shot heard round the world" took place at or near two Massachusetts cities.For a total of $600, name either of the two. |

And Concord is the other answer... you're right with Lexington, Kevin! [APPLAUSE, DING]The champ now has $600... The day is still young, Greg. Let's see you get some cash on the board. Please give it a spin. |
