[ Buzz-in ]He's buying it! [ Cheers and Applause ][ DING-DING-DING ]That sound means you're getting a cash bonus. And inside my envelope... you have won an additional $10,000 cash! [ More Cheers and Applause ]We'll subtract 10 bucks from your score, Kevin. Here comes the next set of questions. The winner of 15 major pro golf championships, Eldrick Tont Woods is better known by what fierce nickname that honors his father's friend, South Vietnamese Colonel Vuong Dang Phong?

Tiger is correct. [ Applause ]Nels now has 50 bucks. [ Ding ]Because they occur halfway between presidential election years, the 2022 U.S. House and Senate elections are commonly known by what name also used to refer to an important exam halfway through a college semester?

Midterms is correct. [ Cheers and Applause ]Nels is on fire with $55! [ Ding ]You can "Circle" back if this one is too hard, but take "pride" if you know it right away. What animated movie's opening scene features a rising sun, an array of wildlife, and a song with the Zulu lyrics: "Nants ingonyama bagithi baba?"

[ Buzzer ]Time's up. The correct answer was THE LION KING. Nels had missed the 24 hour deadline so that means it will cost him five bucks. Practiced in a hot and heated room, Bikram is a form of what spiritual discipline that is practiced by many people interested in building their fitness?

Yoga is correct. [ Applause ]The champ is now catching up against challenger number 1. [ Ding ]What two-word activity, often associated with Catholicism, can also refer to a desperate, last minute American football pass that attempts to save the game? Both instances involve invoking the name of Jesus’ mother.

Hail Mary is correct. [ Applause ]Kevin is now tied with Bill in second place. [ Ding ]Speaking of "Hail Mary"... here's a fun fact-- December 19, 1980: Known as "The Miracle Bowl", Brigham Young University (BYU) quarterback Jim McMahon threw a 41-yard touchdown pass to tight end Clay Brown to defeat Southern Methodist University in the 1980 Holiday Bowl 46–45, which completed Brigham Young's comeback from a 45–25 deficit with four minutes remaining. If you believe in miracles, now you know. We'll be right back.

it's time for another Fame Game. Again, you have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100 only. We're looking for a FAMOUS PERSON. Here are your clues--
I was born at Corsica in 1769, and mysteriously died after being exiled by the British at the island of Saint Helena in 1821. I had to learn to speak French during my education while growing up during the French Revolution. I was the one who made the bicorne hat famous. I was engaged to the future queen of Sweden, Desiree Clary, only to break off the engagement after meeting with Josephine or known as Marie Josephe Rose Tascher de La Pagerie on October 15, 1795, who was a widow at the time due to her first husband's death by guillotine during the Reign of Terror. 5 years later, I became the First Consul of France. In 1804, I declared myself as Emperor of the French before being crowned as Monarch at the Notre Dame de Paris. Of course, I was known for military might and innovative tactics and won many famous battles including:
Battle of the Pyramids - Egypt (1798)
Battle of Marengo - Austria (1800)
Battle of Austerlitz - Austria and Russia (1805)

Behind number 4, you have... $7,500 in cash. [ Fanfare ][ Cheers and Applause ]The good news is that you're still in the lead with 50 bucks... and a bonus cash of 7 1/2 grand.

Potassium is correct. [ Applause ]Kevin is now tied with Nels. [ Ding ]A coder who can develop both client-side and server-side software is known as a full-___ developer. What word that can also mean a serving of pancakes goes in the blank?
