[CASHCARD]CashCard time, and the CashCard is now up to $55,000. James, you get a crack at it. One of those suits has this prize. (Burton finds himself surrounded by.... stuff)Burton: You know, James.... now that the CashCard jackpot peaks at 100-grand, it's hard to determine good prizes. I mean, we don't want to potentially give away a car every night.Greg: Yes, because the audience would come to expect it. Now, what do you propose we do about this, Mr. Richardson? Burton: Oh, I have an idea. James, one of those suits hides a huge gift certificate to Amazon.com, the most valuable retailer in the United States by market capitalization and the largest Internet company by revenue in the world. And in many states, they collect sales tax.(the audience adlibs profane mutterings under their collective breath) I know, it sucks. This Amazon shopping spree is worth.....(audience cheers) Greg: Well still, 30-grand on Amazon is quite a bit. Hey, maybe we'll use that for a Winners' Board prize next week. James, you have a $15 lead, which is how much it would cost you to play. If you get Take $5, you take $5 off somebody else's score and tack it onto your own. You could get your $15 back. You could get $55,000 in cash or a $30,000 Amazon shopping spree! What will you do?

And so are we. Now we'll have to come up with another prize tomorrow night, when the CashCard goes up to $60,000. Meanwhile, here are some more questions.
1. What did the Texan army shout during the Battle of San Jacinto?
2. Which tennis star's father represented Iran at boxing in two Olympic Games?
3. What is the name of the Tokyo Stock Market Index?
(buzzcodes and answers, please)

1. What did the Texan army shout during the Battle of San Jacinto? (buzzcode: 97) *James buzzes in (65)*James? James: Remember the Alamo!I was there! You get another $5, up to $55. (ding)
James: $55
Kevin: $35
Lenny: $50
2. Which tennis star's father represented Iran at boxing in two Olympic Games? (buzzcode: 63) *James buzzes in (48)*James? James: Andre AgassiLost in the first round both times, you're right, up to $60. (ding)
James: $60
Kevin: $35
Lenny: $50
3. What is the name of the Tokyo Stock Market Index? (buzzcode: 21) *Kevin buzzes in (39)*Kevin? Kevin: Tokyo Stock Exchange(buzzer)No, that's where you'd find it. We would've accepted either the Nikkei 225 or TOPIX. Sorry, you lose $5, down to $30.
James: $60
Kevin: $30
Lenny: $50
Well, we've got quite a match on our hands. $30 separates our three players, so the $15 or $25 will make the comeback trail slightly easier. We're looking for a famous place. (whoosh as the puzzle board appears on screen)

Well, congratulations, Lenny. In a moment, we'll be heading back to the Winners' Board, where maybe you can win a nice prize or the Lot. Let's say goodbye to your defeated rivals, first. Kevin, I gotta hand it to you. You weren't able to win, but you were able to keep Lenny away from playing for the car. However, we certainly can't say that you've lost. You're taking with you a 4K TV, a trip to Africa, a drone, and the cash in front of you. That's a total of... $22,755 in cash and prizes. (audience cheers loudly) Thank you so much for playing, and good luck to you. Kevin Kolsen, everyone! (audience cheers) James, you had the lead for a good part of the game, but Lenny came back from behind and just stole it from under your feet. You do take with you the scooter, $2,370 in cash.... oh, and the little matter of $30,000 in stuff from Amazon. You, sir, are leaving us with a very respectable total of.... $37,370 in cash and prizes. (audience cheers loudly) Thank you so much for playing, and good luck to you. Let's hear it for James Greek! (audience cheers) Anything either one of you want to say before you go? |
