 Correct. In addition to being a leisurely game played outdoors, Badminton is a sanctioned sporting event for the Summer Olympic games. |

Believe it or not, according to our research, it's actually True...  That's the one mistake you are allowed. In the game known as Tetherball, a player is allowed to hit the ball more than once per volley. |

No I am sorry, that is actually False Raymond...  And so we now go to...  Kourtney who was next closest.  Kourtney, please select one of the remaining letters and one of the remaining categories. |

Let's go with Stans and Stanleys

Okay, but also need you to select a letter Kourtney, M, A, T or H please.

Let's go with the M please.

 $70 behind the M and... (slide)  No bonus. It's hidden behind that last category this time. The Stanley Cup is awarded to the championship team of the Canadian Football League. |

Of course, it goes to the National Hockey League champs.  Stan "The Man" Musial played his entire Major League career with the St. Louis Cardinals. |

 True is right. One more correct answer for $70 Kourtney... Stan Lee of Marvel Comics fame has not yet celebrated his 90th birthday. |

 Believe it or not, next month Stan Lee will turn 94 years young. That's your one mistake allowed Kourtney. For the money... Stan Laurel of Laurel & Hardy fame was older than his comic partner Oliver Hardy. |

Oliver Hardy was born in 1892. Stan Laurel... 1890, so no, it was True...  Kevin, before we reveal what the bonus card is under that last category POETS & POETRY, please select the A, the T or the H to find out the value of this contract. |

 Kevin already with 1 match and $110 for spending... The H...  Will give you another $80 to spend, and the bonus... (slide)  Is a new one, called 4 for 4. If you get 3 out of 4 questions right Kevin, you will win $80, but if you can get all 4 correct, we'll give you an additional $50 more. Question 1... Joyce Kilmer who wrote "Trees" once won the American Woman of the Year award. |

 Unfortunately our tricky writing staff caught you on that one Kevin. It's false. You know why? Believe it or not, Joyce Kilmer was actually male! (A few chuckles in the audience) Incidentally another very famous writer, a sports writer, once received a female honorary award, yet he too was male, namely Maury Povich's father Shirley. Still trying for 80 bucks though Kevin, and you must be perfect the rest of the way... The poem titled "The Road Not Taken" was written by Robert Frost. |

 That is true, SHE did (chuckling)...I meant HE did of course. The poem titled "Oh Captain My Captain" was written by Walt Whitman. |

 Yes it is, and he also makes a mean box of chocolates too... (chuckles in the audience). For the money, Kevin... A Haiku is a poem consisting of 19 syllables. |

No, that's false.

Only 17 syllables and you have another $80 Kevin.  (applause)  And we'll find out what he'll do, right after this. |
