I recently turned 57 years young. I live near historic Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania with my wife of almost 33 years and our 24 year old son.
I work full time as an office clerk and order entry clerk for a family owned business in town that sells equipment for first responders.
In my spare time I enjoy vintage game shows, board games, card games, vintage TV and watching US History documentaries.

Good luck to you, Nels. Midway in the acquisition round, Nels is in dead last with $40... Bill is in second place with $1,140... and Doug is in the lead with $1,550. Let's resume the acquisition round as we're now entering the red sector... starting with KENTUCKY AVENUE. Answer correctly, and we'll net you $220. On the third street, each correct answer begins with the letter R. Here's this question for all three of you to buzz in. |

Buzz-code answer: 96 1st: NELS (33) 2nd: BILL (16) *** Doug passes *** [BUZZ-IN]Nels...? Nels: Rust. Tony: Welcome back to the game, Nels. Rust is correct. [APPLAUSE][DING]Nels gets hold of his first property and the 220... [DING]Before we continue, I want to let everyone know that we had to do a minor makeover on the board. To keep the board original, our art director Travis Griffin has decide to remove the name "Railroad" in SHORT LINE. Let's resume the game. Up next, we're in INDIANA AVENUE.... priced at $220. Next question. |

Ravioli is correct. [APPLAUSE][DING]Bill gets Marvin Gardens and the 280. [DING]And he now has a total of 1,420. Nels... you'll be sitting out for a moment while Bill and Doug will be playing the Monopoly Showdown. Bill needs to answer 2 questions correctly for a monopoly while Bill needs only one. Here comes this question. What R is an Italian fried rice dish flavored with broth and cheese? |

Matt... you're right... and you have a monopoly! [LOUD CHEERS AND APPLAUSE][DING]Matt grabs both properties as we add in 800 bucks. [DING, APPLAUSE]Right now, Matt is trailing by 70 bucks. After taking the last right turn, we are now in the green sector. Our first destination is PACIFIC AVENUE priced at $300. Each correct answer begins with the letter F. Nels, you're back in the game. You need to get at least another monopoly if you want to win more in the Big Money round coming up. Right now, let's begin our first F question. |
