That is RIGHT!!!!  MATT, you have control of the board and all three categories are in play. We now have.......  EXPLORERS, THE MIDDLE EAST and CLASSICAL MUSIC. What's your pick, MATT? |

BILL, as he just said, is blocked from this question so this is for MATT only.  It gets down to this; If MATT gets this right, he's our new champion. If not, we go to a CONTROL question. CLASSICAL MUSIC: What classical pear-shaped instrument was the precursor to the violin and the guitar? |

No, I'm sorry, MATT. We were looking for a LUTE.
That means we go now to a CONTROL QUESTION. This is not worth any points just control of the CATEGORY BOARD.

Hello and welcome back to THE BIG SHOWDOWN.
We are here with our new champion, MATT.
He's going to roll the dice for $25,000 in cash.
Are you ready, MATT?

In that case, come with me to the top of the dice table. (DICE TABLE COMES UP AND TOTEBOARD COMES DOWN)  Our lovely assistant will be giving you dice that will have the numbers 1 to 5 and the words SHOW and DOWN. You roll these golden dice and if you roll SHOW DOWN on those dice, you'll win $25,000. I wish you the best, MATT. If you don't get SHOWDOWN, then whatever number you get is also important. Pick a number from 1 to 20. |
