And that means that KEVIN is the only one to answer this question for it would put both BILL and BRYAN over the payoff point.  WEATHER: What kind of storm is a violently rotating column of air that is in contact with both surface of the earth and a cloud? |

And that means for this question, BILL is still blocked from answering.  So this is for KEVIN and BRYAN only and if KEVIN gets this right, it's the payoff point. LAKES AND RIVERS: In what Asian country would you find a large river called the Yellow River? THE BUZZ-IN NUMBER IS: 42 Here are the results: KEVIN first BRYAN second (BZZT) KEVIN, your answer? |

Oh, wow, no, that's not the right answer.
We were looking for JAPAN.
So, that's means we go to a CONTROL QUESTION. It's not worth any points just for control of the board.
CONTROL QUESTION:
What famous author wrote the classic novel "Gone With The Wind"?
THE BUZZ-IN NUMBER IS: 91
Here are the results:
BRYAN first
KEVIN second
BILL third

Hold on, everyone. I do have to make a special ruling. I made a mistake on the Mt. Kilimanjaro question. The correct answer should be TANZANIA and not JAPAN. So, BILL got it correct and gets the six points.  BILL, you have control and since you are now one away from the payoff point that means you must pick the one-point category and that is....  COACHES AND MANAGERS. If BILL gets this right, he's won the money. KEVIN and BRYAN, you know what to do. COACHES AND MANAGERS: What famous basketball coach, who coached the Seattle Supersonics and the Sacramento Kings, became the first African-American to coach an NBA team in 1966? THE BUZZ-IN NUMBER IS: 71 Here are the results: KEVIN first BILL second BRYAN third (BZZT) KEVIN, your answer? |
