Well, I am a shift leader at a national sub sandwich chain. I am also a budding polyglot (person who can speak more than two languages). I am a collector, a game show geek, and a music lover. Looking forward to make a lot more money today.

Good luck to you, Kourtney. Before the start of the show, I had already given both players the rules of the game. Whoever wins the best 2 out of 3 rounds will be playing the Money Cards for thousands more and the possibility of winning a brand new automobile. We begin round 1 with our first question for our champion. *grabs card* Kourtney... we asked 100 farmers in Iowa: WAS YOUR FATHER ALSO A FARMER?How many of the farmers said yes?

We are in the middle of the heart land. I do think that most of farms are generational in nature. So it’s definitely likely that most of the farmers’ fathers were also fathers. So I am going say 65 farmers’ fathers were also farmers. (Try saying that part three times fast.)

Post by tmann3x on Apr 7, 2023 18:02:32 GMT -5
[DING]65 out of 100 of them say their father is also a farmer. What do you think of that answer, Kevin... higher or lower?
|
|
|
Post by koopakid17 on Apr 7, 2023 23:04:51 GMT -5
It's a huge generational thing. That's the life of a farmer. They pass down their fields and their techniques to their kids. It wouldn't surprise me if that number was higher than 65.

Post by tmann3x on Apr 8, 2023 0:12:41 GMT -5
[DING]If it's higher, you'll play your cards. If not, Kourtney will be playing his cards. And if any one of you get an answer on the nose, you'll receive a $1,000 bonus. Kourtney says 65 of them and Kevin says it's higher. The actual number of farmers in Iowa say their father is also a farmer is... [DING-DING-DING, APPLAUSE]95. Kevin is right... it is higher. So that means Kevin will be playing the cards starting with... an ACE! [LOUD CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

We'll move the freeze bar for Kevin to protect his cards from the opposing player. When our show resumes, we'll have a second question for our challenger. More cash, prizes, are surpises are still to come when Card Sharks returns after this. Stick around, folks...

*back to studio* [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Welcome back to Card Sharks. Let's see what the board look like... Our challenger Kevin has a two card advantage while our champion Kourtney haven't touched his base card just yet. We now continue our first round with our next question. *grabs card* Kevin... we asked 100 howeowners: DO YOU THINK YOUR HOUSE IS HAUNTED?How many of them said yes?

There are lots of things we just can’t explain. My boss thinks that whenever a strong wind blows through our office, it’s his deceased partner.
I don’t think it’s too out of the ordinary. I’ll say 36.

[DING]36 out of 100 homeowners say their house is haunted. What do you think, Kourtney... higher or lower?
|
|
|
Post by pathfinder20 on Apr 9, 2023 11:28:46 GMT -5
I am going to say a bit lower because of the fact that most homes are not as old as they look nowadays. Most people are gravitating towards new builds anyway.

[DING][APPLAUSE]I don't believe my house is THAT haunted, but we'll find out about the answer. Kevin says 36 and Kourtney says it's lower. The actual number of homeowners say they think their house is haunted is... [DING-DING-DING, APPLAUSE]12. Kourtney is correct... it is lower. And this time, the champ begins with his base card... a 4. [CHEERS, APPLAUSE]

Higher.

Post by tmann3x on Apr 9, 2023 16:22:03 GMT -5
Higher than a 4... [DING-DING-DING, APPLAUSE]It's a trip to Jamaica. Lita will place it in the prize column while Trish hands me a replacement card. Do you still want to play on your 4 higher, Kourtney?
