Welcome to Week number 2 of "Split Second"! In our last episode, we had crowned a new champion. So far, Kevin Kolsen has an all-cash total of $1,550. Before we start the show, I'm looking for two additional contestants to play against Kevin and possibly leave the show in a brand new automobile.
Please let me know when you want to participate and stand by. Good luck to all of you.

============================================================================== [OPENING THEME, STEVE GUEST ANNOUNCES, THUNDER, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Steve Anderson [GUEST ANNOUNCER]: You'll find out...as one of these 3 contestants wins the chance to drive home...in this brand-new Chevy Corvette. In just a...[THUNDER][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]*host enters center stage as giant doors close* And now, here's the star of our show... TONY LANE![MORE CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: Thank you, Steve Anderson. Hello, folks... and welcome to Split Second. Television's game of speed, knowledge, and dexterity. Steve will be our guest announcer all week long while Brian Cummings is on assignment alongside John Ricci, Jr. at a game show convention. I'll repeat the opening question that Steve had asked us... "What was Walt Disney's first feature-length animated film?" The correct answer was "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". Kevin Kolsen is back with us as our defending champion. How do you feel after winning $1,550? |

I'm sure you'll do your very best in winning your second match. Your other two opponents believe otherwise. Who are they? Our guest announcer Steve knows for sure. Let's meet our two opposing players, shall we...? [CONTESTANTS' INTRO, STEVE ANNOUNCES, CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Steve: Challenger #1 enjoys collecting trading cards, doing stats, and play video games. Originally from Spartanburg, South Carolina... meet ANTHONY LONG.[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]And challenger #2 is a supermarket clerk. From Council Bluffs, Iowa... meet MATT RINGGENBERG.[CHEERS, APPLAUSE CONTINUES]Tony: We'll get to know our players after our first commercial break. Right now, I'll explain the rules of the game-- I'll be asking a question with the three possible clues that you see on my monitor. The catch is... all three of you must respond to just one answer. If the three of you give me a correct answer, you'll each receive $25. If the two of you give me a correct answer, the both of you get $50 apiece. And if one person give me thr right answer, that person will score $100. As of right now, we're gonna add a Singleton prize in both rounds 1 and 2! [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Our executive producer Jennifer Mullin has decided to add that into our first round of the match from now on. Only one of you may have that chance. Good luck to all three of you. Here comes our first question. We often hear the question asked "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
I will list three pairs of events, you tell me which happened first. Fair warning to all players-- If a player selects one and is wrong, that question is out of play. Please take a look at the monitor as we reveal the multiple choice answers. The start of The Pony Express or The Battle of Gettysburg... Neil Armstrong landing on the moon or Woodstock... Hawaii admitted as a state or John F. Kennedy wins the presidential election. *You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. |

Hawaii was admitted as a state in 1959... JFK had won the presidential election in 1960. You're right, Kevin.
Anthony, you're up next.

Neil Armstrong's moon landing was in July 1969... and Woodstock happens in-- August 1969. You're right, Anthony.
And Matt...?

The Battle of Gettysburg happened before the start of the Pony Express?

The Battle of Gettysburg begins in the year 1863... the start of The Pony Express began in the year... 1860.[BUZZER]Sorry, Matt. Kevin and Anthony each score fifty bucks. [APPLAUSE]
Don't worry, Matt. The afternoon is young and I'm sure that you'll get the next answer correctly. Question number 2 coming up... Here are some Before and After type puzzles.
Fill in the blank that links the two words or phrases…Hold the _______ clinic... royal _______ the toilet... good ______ sickness. |

Post by tmann3x on Aug 26, 2018 10:14:03 GMT -5
[BUZZER]Actually, Kevin, the correct sequence is Good MORNING Sickness. Anthony and Matt each score $50. [APPLAUSE]
Anthony is now in the lead with $100. Next question... The United States Army has several ranks represented by various symbols.
I will name three ranks, you tell me what symbols are used.Corporal, Colonel, Major.

We'll accept it... an Eagle is the right answer.
And Matt... if you get the answer wrong, Kevin will get the Singleton prize. Please select one of the remaining two and your answer.

Matt... a corporal has... two stripes.[BUZZER]And our champion Kevin wins the Singleton prize! [SIREN][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]For those of you who wants to know... the rank Major is the symbol for the Gold Oak Leaf. Kevin, please listen to our guest announcer Steve about the Singleton prize you've won. |
