*'97 Intro* Jim: From Net Game Central, it's America's most popular game show! *drumroll* Audience: WHEEL!...OF!...FORTUNE! Jim: Ladies and gentlemen: Kevin Kolsen and Vanna White!
Me: Hiya! Hello, everybody! Thank you, Jim, for that warm welcome. I'm here by the wheel base, Vanna's by the puzzle board. It may be 2023, but we're going to play Wheel the way we did in the last year of the 1,000s. We have three contestants ready to go.
Starting with Matt Riggenberg. Matt is our returning champion. He won $9,316 cash and prizes on our last show.
*applause*
Ready to avenge what happened in that Bonus Round, Matt?

Hello Kevin.
Nothing much just staying busy at work and try to stay well with the crazy weather we have been having here...

Been quiet here, but there's still more winter according to Punxsutawney Phil. You never seem to know. Finally, we'll talk with Bill McDee. Any updates for you?

Well I live in the same state as that renowned groundhog and today it's in the mid to high 50s and going to be in the 60s tomorrow, so if this is his idea of six more weeks of winter, I can handle it!
Not much new with me, still happily and gainfully employed now for 4 years with a local family owned business that makes and sells equipment for first responders. We receive orders for items and I process them and get them printed up and take them out to the warehouse to be assembled and boxed up for shipping.
Been married almost 32 years now. We have a son 23 who resides with us.
I enjoy US History, vintage and classic game shows and sit coms, enjoy playing cards, board games and delighted to be here to try to spin and win.

So can I, Bill! Even if it's rain, I'll take that over a lot of snow. You seem to be doing well, and hopefully you'll do the same here. We start, as always, with a prize which Jim is going to tell us about.
Jim: Our first featured prize is a pendant! Don't be afraid to make a statement with this lion pendant. Its eyes gleam with rubies with a crown encrusted by diamonds all tied together with timeless 10-karat gold. A link chain frame surrounds the pendant with unmatched beauty. Yours from Kay Jewelers where every kiss begins with Kay: $1,500!
Nice prize, and what's also nice is the $1,500 bonus you could win with this first puzzle. It's a Puzzler, which will come into play after it's solved. You can bank the cash by solving another incomplete puzzle related to it. Let's take a look at the board.
*puzzle reveal chimes*
The puzzle leading to the Puzzler has a category of Title. Just before the show, we drew numbers to see who would start our game.
#1's been hot for our champions, and this game is no exception. Go ahead, Matt!
