And welcome back to Letter Rip. I am here with James, our first champion. And now we are going to play the bonus round for $25,000. Here's how the bonus round works James. We will still use the five sets of dice we've been using. You will roll each set of dice. The pairs of letters that appear will be the initials we'll be working with. The category die will be rolled as well. Each name you come up with gets you $1,000. However, if you stick to the category, you'll earn $5,000. Do that five times and you win the $25,000! It's as simple as that. Any questions before we begin James?

[Deleted]

[grapebuy789]

Alright. Pick up a set of dice and roll them!
