What international sports event is represented by a white flag with 5 colorful interlocking rings?  Immanuel - The Olympics. Right and you pull into a tie with Nels at 40.  According to the fairy tale, what kind of animal was the prince before he was kissed?  Immanuel - A Frog Right and now you're in second place at 45.  During what bodily function might someone say "Gesundheit" to a person?  Nels - A sneeze. Right and now a two way tie for 2nd!  (Instant Bargain Bells) (Cash Register CHA CHING) Instant Bargain, Instant Cash, and George, you now find yourself in the lead by $10 over your other 2 challengers.  Three boxes. In one we have $250 in cash. In another $500, and in one it says "WIN!" and if you play this and hit that card, you will win the Instant Cash which is worth today...  $2,500.  This time one of the letters still has the GIVEAWAY card under it, and if you find that it means you'll play this game free of charge. One says NO $ALE which means you will not play it at all. One says "LEAD AMOUNT", the other says - $15 or LEAD AMOUNT. When that card is chosen, it will always be the lesser of those 2, so in this case $10 as that is your lead total. Select a letter George and I hope you get the result you want. |

And in box 3 today we have...  Just $250 in cash. That's yours to keep, but wasn't the big one. Where was it today?  Box number 1 today. Well the Instant Cash jackpot will grow by $500 and will be worth $3,000 on our next show. Meantime, we have a three way tie in this very good and exciting match. And we'll be back to conclude it and find out who will come out on top and win a nice prize at the Winner's Board, right after this! |

(intro from commercial music)  Back to a sensational opening match between Immanuel, George and Nels. All three players now tied at $45 each. Players in a moment I'll be posting three more questions, and I'll ask you to submit your answers and buzz codes to me via private message. After those three questions, we will be playing one final Fame Game and up on that board will be a $10, a $15 and also a $25 money card. Ordinarily, after we play the final Fame Game, the returning champion automatically plays in the final 10 question Speed Round against the challenger who has the higher score. As this is a match with three new players, the one of you three who has the lowest score after we play the final Fame Game will be eliminated, but will receive $25 for each dollar you have in front of you. If there is a tie, we'll do a tie-breaker toss-up question. Right now, please PM to me your buzz codes and answers for these three $5 questions. As always, if you do not know the answer, just say "PASS" as an incorrect answer will cost you $5 if you buzz in first and are wrong. Buzz codes and answers are due no later than 5:30pm EST on Friday, September 29th. 1 - According to the Holy Bible, what was the name of the apostle who was "Doubting"? 2 - Which Founding Father was renowned for having discovered electricity? 3 - If you're wearing a fedora, what article of clothing would you be wearing? |

1 - According to the Holy Bible, what was the name of the apostle who was "Doubting"?  George. "Thomas". Right for another $5 and you go to $50 again.  2 - Which Founding Father was renowned for having discovered electricity?  George - "Benjamin Franklin". Now a $10 lead for George.  3 - If you're wearing a fedora, what article of clothing would you be wearing?  George again! "A hat". And three in a row and George now goes to $60!  We now have a $10, a $15 and we've added a $25 money card to our Fame Game board. Playing for control of that board. A three out of 7 chance to add to your totals, and this will prove especially important for Immanuel and Nels, for if either of them get to pick and find a money card, not only will they gain on George, but they will eliminate the other from the Speed Round. Players, please submit your buzz codes and answers to me via private message. They are due no later than 7pm EST on Saturday, September 30th. Be sure to spellcheck your answers too as during the last round, one answer "Hat" was received on my end as the word "Hey" by one of you. We're looking for a famous American male athlete. Who am I? I was born February 6th 1895. As I was a trouble maker as a youth, my parents sent me to St. Mary's, which was a combination school, church and orphanage. Brother Mathias introduced me to the great game of baseball. My first Major League game was on July 11th, 1914 with the Boston Red Sox. I got my nickname from my future manager Jack Dunn. In 1920 I was purchased by the New York Yankees and a curse bearing my name was assigned to the Red Sox organization. By that time, I went from being one of the best pitchers in the league, to a home run hitting machine, hitting a record 60 home runs in 1927, an all time record for a 154 game regular season. My given first and middle names were George Herman, but I was also known as "The Sultan of Swat", the "Bambino" and most of all the "Babe". What was my last name? |

 Nels - "Babe Ruth". That's who we wanted!  If you find any of the three money cards, you and George will play in the head to head Speed Round, if you find something other than a money card, you and Immanuel will have to play a tie-breaker question. Select one of the remaining numbers Nels. |

(Speed Round Continued) The man who calls balls and strikes during a baseball game is called the what?  George - Umpire Yes.  Which planet is also known as the Evening Star?  George - Venus Right!  What is the nickname of Chicago's National League baseball team?  George - Cubs Yes.  What Aretha Franklin song title was something that comedian Rodney Dangerfield said he never got?  George - Respect Correct.  In the story of Snow White, how many dwarves did she live with?  Nels - 7 Right!  Time is UP and George Cluster has won the match!!! Was nip and tuck early on in that Speed Round but George really got into a groove with that buzzer getting I think 6 or 7 in a row there. Nels, you played superbly. Didn't pick up any cash or prizes along the way, however we'll pay you $25 for each dollar in front of you on your scoreboard, so you'll be leaving us with a nice cash total of $1,750! Thank you very much for making this a very good first match, a nice round of applause for Nels Snesrud! Well George, you only have $250 so far, courtesy of Instant Cash, but now you are going to win a valuable prize, possibly one of three cash prizes or a new automobile...let's go to the Winner's Board! (win music)  Twenty numbered boxes. 8 prizes up there that match including a $10,000 cash prize and a $15,000 cash prize. A $25,000 card and a "CAR" card are on the board but each is there only once. However to help you to possibly win those, we have two WIN cards up on the board. If you select one of those, the next number you pick will be the prize you win. Otherwise, it will be the first prize that you match. If you should win 8 matches and remove 8 of these prizes from our board, your 9th win will mean you will automatically receive the last 2 prizes, and then you'll have a big risky decision to make if you make it that far. Right now however, let's win a grand prize for you here George, it will cost you only $95 which was your winning total today. What number do you like to start off with George? |

George you cleared off one prize from our game board. If you manage to win 9 matches in a row, you'll have cleared the entire board and will then have a decision to make.
That decision will be if you want to risk all ten major prizes to play in one final match for an additional cash jackpot of $125,000. That however is quite a far way away.
In the meantime however, George Cluster will be back on our next episode with winnings of $5,750 in cash and prizes, along with 2 new challengers.
And until then, this is Bill McDee thanking you for joining us here today, and also to remind you, help control the pet population, have your pets spayed or neutered.
Ciao for now!
