That's nice, but don't spend it all during a storm. I kid, I kid. Here's Jim to tell us about our first prize.
Jim: Thank you, Kevin. For today's Places Unknown show, here's something that will help you pack for any experience: a gift certificate to ebags.com! Shop on our online store through hundreds of brand names for luggage of all shapes and sixes. Also check out our backpacks, accessories and more for all your travel needs. This certificate is worth $1,500!
That should get you in the traveling mood. Rhyme Time is the category to our first puzzle.
*puzzle reveal chimes*
Just before the show, we drew numbers to see who would start the game.
Today, it'll be Chris. Good luck!

And you sure are!
*'97 puzzle solve cue*
We just got settled in, and look what you're done. $1,650 in your bank already!
We're going to give your opponents a chance to get in this. First, here's Jim to talk to us about another prize on the wheel.
Jim: It's another place unknown to us: a trip to the Adirondacks in New York! You and a guest will fly round trip to Utica, New York. From there, transportation will be provided to Lake George, a picturesque lake surrounded by towering mountains. You'll spend four nights at The Sagamore Resort, offering the finest accommodations upstate New York has to offer. Zip-lining and a whitewater rafting excursion are included: $4,766!
Me: There it is on the wheel.
And here's our next puzzle.
Around The House is its category. This is our puzzler round. A chance at $1,500 if you can solve another puzzle related to this one. Matt, all the best!
