Rich Fields: Five of these boxes will break the $100,000 bank! Is this one of them?  Or is it this one?  Or this one?  We will find out as two players compete in this game of hide and seek........... From the BancorpSouth Arena in Tupelo, Mississippi to play......................  (huge applause) And now, the host of Break The Bank, Bryan Law! (huge applause) Thank you! Thank you one and all to Break The Bank! This is not only a game that is quick to learn and easy to play, but one of these two players if they win a best three out of five could play our newest bonus game called Break Or Bust where you will also have a chance to win a trip worth over $10,000 or a brand new car, whichever comes first! (huge applause) Rich, please introduce our two players please! Rich: Will do, Bryan! Our first player is a high school student from Washington D.C., meet Lenny Jackson! (applause) His opponent is a grocey clerk from Council Bluffs, IA, meet Matt Ringgenberg! (applause) Gentlemen, welcome to this newest installment of Break The Bank!

Then let's get this party started! (huge applause) Here is how the game is played:  You see how all the dollar amount are connected: Each time you answer a true/false question correctly, you earn that box and if you connect three of the same boxes, you win one game and triple that amount along with a special surprise prize! If you connect two of the boxes with a Wild Card like this, not only do you win the money you also win a trip to where Rich?  Rich: A trip to Yosemite! (applause) You will spend four nights at the Yosemite View Lodge in El Portal, California.  The Yosemite View Lodge in El Portal, CA provides luxury accommodations just steps away from the entrance to the national park. Our 335 rooms and suites are meticulously appointed and amenity rich, offering the perfect setting for a romantic getaway or a family vacation. Most rooms are set along a spectacular stretch of the Merced River, featuring dramatic views from balconies and outdoor spas. Retail value: $2,947! (applause) And of course, that is not all! If you get three Money Bags, you will Break The Bank which tonight starts at.....  (ding) $5,000! (huge applause)  But now if you also connect two of the Money Bags with the Wild Card, not only do you Break The Bank, but you also win the trip!  But one thing to watch out for this those blanks! Every time you find one, you will lose your turn!  If you are the first to win three games, you will play our new bonus round called Break or Bust where you could win a trip, a car or if you find five Money Bags, you will win............................. (ding) $100,000! (huge applause)  Now we are about to start Game One here! (ding)  You both are wondering who will start first! I will ask a true/false toss up question and if you buzz in correctly you start the match off! If you miss, your opponent will! Good luck! True or false: Hot temperatures is what makes beer go skunked! |

No it is false! It is light that causes beer to get skunked! Isohumulones, the bitter compounds in hops used in beer, are very sensitive to natural light (artificial light affects them, too, but not nearly as fast). Matt starts off control and picks first, good luck!  |

Starting off with number 18................... It is a Money Bag! (ding, OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)  Now Matt, if you keep the Money Bag you forfeit your turn! Otherwise if you decide to keep playing, you must return it! What is your decision? |

Post by mringgenberg on Dec 6, 2017 9:54:10 GMT -5
I'll keep it.

Keeping the Money Bag! (ding, applause)  One Money Bag for Matt, and Lenny now gets control of the board! Where would you like to start?  |

Post by redrangerdude on Dec 7, 2017 8:08:57 GMT -5
Number 7 please
|
|
|

Post by Bryan on Dec 7, 2017 13:23:48 GMT -5
Lucky number 7............... It is a $300 box! (applause)  True or false: Lead was used as an artificial sweetener in ancient Rome. |

False

Post by Bryan on Dec 8, 2017 0:14:50 GMT -5
No it is true! (aWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW) Romans used an artificial sweetener, Sugar of Lead, to sweeten and preserve their foods without taking on additional calories. Sugar of Lead, likely the first artificial sweetener, is now known as the chemical compound Lead (II) Acetate, and it's a poisonous crystalline solid that resembles table salt. Matt gets the $300 box by default and also has one Money Bag! Matt, where to?  |

Going with number 9................. It is a $500 box! (applause)  True or false: Uranus was once originally called Starlord. |

Yes it is false! (applause) The name of Uranus references the ancient Greek deity of the sky Uranus (Ancient Greek: Οὐρανός), the father of Cronus (Saturn) and grandfather of Zeus (Jupiter), which in Latin became "Ūranus" Lenny gets the $500 box and chooses again!  |

Number 10, a one in three chance........................... And there it is! (applause)  Here is your question! True or false: Russia is the same size at Pluto. |

Believe it or not, it is false! (huge applause) This is from a report called wafflesatnoon.com: When NASA’s New Horizon’s mission buzzed by Pluto in July 2015, the decades-long debate about the dwarf planet’s size was finally answered. In terms of diameter, Pluto was found to be 2370 kilometers (1473 miles) across, which would easily fit within Russia’s largest east-to-west width of 10,000 km. It would also fit within the largest north-to-south size of 4000 km. Talk about Pluto with a size problem! (laughter) Lenny now has two $500 boxes and must decide where the third one is unless he finds a Wild CarD! Lenny which number is next?  |
