Now you got a taste of that Big Bucks square, but the bigger question is, "Can You Avoid the Whammy on this Last Passed Spin?" This could determine who gets the advantage in Round 2. Let's find out who as we roll the board!

(Big Board Spinning)

(Audience Groans) (Whammy SFX)

(Surfer Whammy Activated)



(Go to 1:39)

(The Whammy appears riding a wave on his surfboard as the wave crashes and eradicates Michael's score.)

Whammy: Surf's up! Hang ten! I got your money and it's a wipeout!



(Boing!)

Argh! And the Whammy has indeed shown up, and on the last passed spin at that! It was surely a Wipeout, Michael, but you should be lucky that this was only Round 1, as you will get a chance to redeem yourself in Round 2. But for now, the Whammy has taken all of that money and has already deposited it into the Big Bank, giving it a new total of...

BIG BANK: $26,965

(Cha-Ching!)

$26,965!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)



(Play the Ticket Plug/Round 1 Outro Cue at 6:42)

DK: And on that note, we bring this exciting and dramatic first round to a close! As each player has one Whammy against them, both Danny and Michael don't have any money, while Nels' strategy has paid off, because with $6,400, you have the advantage of going last into our second and final round, and the Big Bank stands at...



BIG BANK: $26,965

$26,965.

Now, we're going to take a commercial break as we're going into Paris to see some unbelievable highlights so far at 2024 Summer Olympic Games, and make sure that you come right back for the second round, because we have got a LOT of new things to show you and to our players that could change the whole entire game at a moment's notice, but right now, George, can you tell us how the people at home and in our studio audience how to apply to the new Press Your Luck show with Elizabeth Banks, if you please?



George: I sure will, Dayo. If you want to battle against the Whammy on Press Your Luck in the Summer of 2025, click on this link to apply to be on the show, and fill out the entire application accurately. Now, stay tuned for more Questions, Spins and Big Bucks as Press Your Luck continues!

And since that this took place in Paris, we're going to also focus on the Tour De France as well, so I hope that you players pay close attention to these questions, because we got some new prizes and features loaded on our Big Board for Round 2, but you're going to need some spins, and in order to get those, you are going to have answer these questions.

[larsonfan1]

Atlanta

[dad90]

The late and great Muhammad Ali, one of the greatest boxers of all time, who won Olympic gold in 1960 fighting for the United States at light heavyweight boxing at the time, would proudly have the honor of lighting the Cauldron for the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Georgia! We have another Perfect Question Round!

ATLANTA
LOS ANGELES
BARCELONA

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

The Cauldron is only lit by sporting greats who represent the host country, and as Atlanta, Georgia, is located in the US, it was thus during the 1996 Olympics that Ali lit the Cauldron.



(Play Question Round 2 Bumper Cue at 9:15)

Which means that at the end of the second Question Round...



(Ding) (Ding) (Ding)

Nels and Danny each have 6 spins while our champion Michael has 8 spins, for a total of 20 spins, confirming the second Perfect Question Round! And guess what? We're going to take each and every single one of those spins to that Big Board and turn them into Big, Big Bucks, so you better come right back for that all-exciting second round for spinning and winning, including the opportunity to win the Big Bank and possibly the Whammy's Bank, just to name a few! It all happens right after this!
