THE IRON CURTAIN is RIGHT!!!  NELS, you have control of the board but since you are one point away from the payoff point, that means that you got to take:  FAMOUS WOMEN If NELS gets this right, it's another $100 and a bonus prize for getting two in a row. A.J. and MATT, you know what to do. FAMOUS WOMEN: Who, as the legend goes, made the first American flag? THE BUZZ-IN NUMBER IS: 80 Here are the results: A.J. first MATT second NELS third (BZZT) A.J., your answer? |
