(Vacation Thread Reminder): Due to a shingles vaccine that I will be getting today (Saturday, June 10th), depending on any ill-effects that it may cause, I may not be on here much during this weekend.
Thank you,
Bill

(ding)  That's what we're looking for! And after two rounds, George leads with $4,500, Nels in second with $3,600 and Bill our champion in third with $3,500! George don't get comfortable with that leads because it could all be gone in a flash in our Knockout Round! Someone could walk away with an additional $5,000 or maybe tens of thousands of dollars when we return! (applause) |

(applause) Welcome to the Knockout Round! Someone will walk out of here with some cold hard cash, but they will have to avoid being knocked out and here's how it works! I will ask a series of questions and a wheel will be spinning in the middle of the podium! You'll see the dollar signs!  Dollar values range from $500 to $1,000 in $25 increments and once you answer correctly, you can knock that amount off someone's score! There are also three jackpots: Single, Double and Triple! Every dollar amount adds to the jackpot which starts at $10,000! (ding)  The more you answer correctly, the more it builds up! But if Single, Double or Triple comes up on the wheel and you answer correctly, you will be locked in for that one jackpot! Only one jackpot per player is allowed! Once you knock a player down to 0, they are knocked out of this game! If you are the last player standing, you get to keep whatever money you have left including an additional $5,000 unless you locked in one of the jackpots! Good luck and here we go!  What fairy tale has the spell "Mirror, mirror on the wall"? Bill: 20 George: 77 Nels: 95 Random.org: 28  Bill, $675 at stake! |
