New Rochelle, New York is right for $2,700! (Applause) He has elected not to play the WHAT? question, extending his lead. Bill, you have the choice of the subjects.

Interstate 15 traverses the West from the Mexican border to the Canadian border, from the Pacific to the Rockies. It does NOT travel through which of these states - Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, or Utah?

Colorado, since that state is much farther east than the others I believe.

That is right, Bill. You have $3,000, and I did notice your hosting hiatus. If needed, we can hold, but right now, it's between John and Clement for $500 and possible control of the board. John and Clement, step up to the $500 challenge.
In Ancient Times, it seemed that all roads did lead to Rome. One of the most famous roads connected Rome to Brindisi and was of strategic importance to the Roman Army. What is its English name?

SALTY FOODS for $300

BILL ($3,000): SALTY PLACES for $500
Clement is the holdout, and he will go first. Clement, this one's for you only.
In one of his classic comedy routines, George Carlin warns us about using a certain number of "words you cannot say on television." How many foul words was he referring to?

Way fewer...SEVEN. Can you think of Carlin using 1,001 naughty words in one skit? Wait a sec, scratch that... (Laughter)
In any event, Clement, you go down to $400. Bill and John, step up to the $500 challenge on SALTY PLACES.
A Pontiac sports car model was named for this location in the desert of Utah where many land speed records were set. Name the location.

Oh I misread the question...
I was going to say "Salt Lake City", but I don't think there's a Pontiac car named that... |

(EH-EH!) Sorry, time's up, and that's not the answer I have. You lose $500. John, you may try the question if you want, or pass. If you pass, there's no penalty, so if you don't know it, that might be the right thing to do. What do you want to do?

(Cringing) Uhhhhh...I'm going to have to go the judge for a ruling here. Judge Gary, he said "Bonneville," can he get credit?
(Camera switches over to Judge Gary Johnson)
Judge Gary: Oh, dear...John, "Bonneville" is the place; however, you provided too much info when you said "desert." The desert that the BONNEVILLE SALT FLATS are in is actually the Great Salt Lake Desert. There is no such region of Utah known as the Bonneville Desert, so I'm afraid I'll have to rule it incorrect.
(Audience awwws)
Me: John, I tried to make a case for you, but you gave the wrong kind of info. Everyone lost money on that one: Bill at $2,500, John at $1,000, and Clement at $400. Last subject of the round is CURRENT U.S. SENATORS (CLANGA-CLANGA-CLANGA!). Pick your region of the U.S., please (BONG-BONG-BONG!).
SOUTHWEST for $300
SOUTHEAST for $400
NORTHEAST for $500

BILL ($2,500): NORTHEAST for $500
(WHOOP-WHOOP-WHOOP! Applause as screens flash) WHOA! Nicely done, another triple! Let's double the question values...
SOUTHWEST for $600
SOUTHEAST for $800
NORTHEAST for $1,000
This question is worth $1,000 and control of the other two questions, if desired. Step up to the $1,000 challenge.
The longest-serving current U.S. Senator served as President Pro Tempore of the Senate from December 17, 2012 to January 6, 2015. Now, after the midterm elections, he serves as President Pro Tempore Emeritus. Serving in the Senate since 1975, name this Democratic Senator from the state of Vermont.
