Werewolf is the correct answer! There you go! (Audience Applause)Eddie Munster, played by actor Butch Patrick, in the television series "The Munsters" was the only child of Herman and Lily Munster. Eddie was a werewolf boy, and slept in either a coffin or a bureau drawer. His costume consisted of an exaggerated widow's peak, pointed ears, a "Little Lord Fauntleroy" suit and fangs. "The Munsters" television series first aired on September 24th, 1964. It ran a series of 70 episodes up until May 12th, 1966. Extra note: Eddie was indeed a little werewolf, it is grandpa who was the vampire. Matt, you have control of the dice. Pick them up.

OK, Shederick. Matt has given the dice to you. This time, you have a lot less room to spare, and this roll could make all the difference. If you cannot roll a 5, a 9, or a 14, and there are no Doubles, and you are out. However, if you do roll a 14, and you'll not only win this round, but you'll pick up a $2,000 cash bonus and automatically head into the Championship Round. So, good luck to you, Shederick, and roll the dice. (Shederick rolls the dice)And the roll is... FOURTEEN! AND HE HAS DONE IT!

(HR' Game Win Cue playing) (HR' Game Win Cue at 2:38) DK: And welcome back to Super High Rollers, and you're just in time for the start of the Elimination Round between Matt (mringgenberg) and George (bighornbattle). Now, in the next 2 rounds, the Bonuses are in play, and I'll tell you more about those in a bit, but right now, let's take a look at our 4 columns that are going to be put in place... And we're going to fill them with our 12 numbers in a moment, but first, we need to load them up with prizes, and in this round, we're allowing only 1 prize per column, so Burton, what do we have in Column 1? Burton: In Column 1, we have...

This fabulous piano is valued at $14,900!(Audience Cheers and Applause)DK: Great prize! Let's see if we can top that at Column 2! Burton: In Column 2, we have...

Daily breakfast is included in this trip valued at $11,618!(Audience Cheers and Applause)DK: A coincidental prize knowing that both Winter and the Holidays are right around the corner. And speaking of the Holidays, we've got something special in Column 4, right Burton? Burton: That's right, Dayo! In Column 4, we have...
...a special mini-bonus game called "Shop Til You Drop", where a roll of a single die will earn you a shopping spree worth $1,500 times the value of the die, but if you roll a 6 however, and you'll win a $15,000 Shopping Spree, making the maximum potential value of this column up to $15,000!
Which means that the total value of this entire board is $54,530!(Audience Cheers and Applause)DK: Thank you, Burton! And now, let's load the 4 Columns with our numbers, and here they are! (HR's 1986 Drum Solo) Column 1: Yamaha Grand Piano - $14,900 Column 2: Australia - $13,012 Column 3: Iceland - $11,618 Column 4: Shop Til You Drop - $15,000
Ah! We have a Hot Column in Column 1, with a roll of an 11 to win the Grand Piano. Now, as I've mentioned, we have the bonuses in play, and here they are! ALL COLUMNS JACKPOT - $90,000 3 HOT COLUMNS JACKPOT - $42,500 LAST NUMBER CLEARED BONUS - $9,000If you get 3 Hot Columns before the game is over and become the champion, and you'll win the 3 Hot Columns Jackpot of $42,500. Get all columns in one round, and you'll win an extra $90,000 from the All Columns Jackpot, and if you clear the last number(s) off of the board, and you'll win the Last Number Cleared Bonus of $9,000. And they will go up in each round every time it isn't won. Now players, in order to win those prizes, you have to clear out a Column by eliminating the numbers from that column and win this round. Otherwise, you will be Eliminated from the game. Plus, we now have added True-or-False and Yes-or-No questions. And also, from this point on, if you get a question wrong, your opponent gets control of the dice by default. With all that said, here's the first question of the Elimination Round. ...which, by the way, all of these questions in this round have all got something to do with Thanksgiving. What bird is typically the meal of choice when it comes to Thanksgiving in the U.S.?A. Turkey B. Quail C. Chicken D. Duck Matt: 7 George:3 Magic #: 11 (Buzz-In!)And Matt buzzes in! What's your answer?

Turkey is the right answer! (Audience Applause)Some have chicken, some have duck, some have no bird at all...It varies from person to person. Matt, you get control of the dice. (Matt picks up the dice) GOOD ROLLS: 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18All numbers are available, which means that all rolls are good for you, so roll the dice and let's get some money! (Matt rolls the dice) And you will start off with a 14. How are you going to play this out?

The 3, 1, 6, and 4 are gone! (Number(s) Off!)Column 1: Yamaha Grand Piano - $14,900 Column 2: Australia - $13,012 Column 3: Iceland - $11,618 Column 4: Shop Til You Drop - $15,000
Player: Insurance Markers/Prizes/Score
Matt: 0/Column 1/$800 (1 Hot Column) George: 0/None/$0 And you have cleared the first column, and have 1 Hot Column under your belt. Now, if you win this round, and be lucky enough to earn 2 more Hot Columns in the Championship Round, AND win the game become the Champion again, and you'll win the 3 Hot Columns Jackpot. And from this point on in the game, for each number you delete, you'll earn cash! In this round, you'll earn $200 for each number you eliminate, and that cash will be yours to keep, no matter what happens throughout the remainder of the game. Also, some Bad Rolls have already been formed, so control of the dice is important as both of you are fighting for survival. With all of that being said, here's the next question. My dad decided to start off this Thanksgiving by reading a little bit of United States history as a family. Which people celebrated one of the first American Thanksgivings with Native Americans in 1621?A. Pirates B. Catholic Nuns C. Pilgrims D. Spanish Explorers Matt: 35 George: 6 Magic #: 19 (Buzz-In!)And George buzzes in! What's your answer?

Pilgrims.

Post by dad90 on Nov 19, 2024 15:07:59 GMT -5
Pilgrims is right! (Audience Applause)The pilgrims had one of the first Thanksgiving feasts in the United States after they miraculously survived moving to America. Many of their friends and loved ones had died on the way or had been unable to make the journey. When they had their first harvest they celebrated with Native Americans to give thanks to God for sparing their lives. There are many other "days of thanks" where people paused to thank God, such as George Washington's troops in the American Revolution and the armies in the American Civil war. Now, George, pick up the dice. (George does so) BAD ROLLS: 3 4 6The Bad Rolls are 3, 4 and 6. Now, neither of you have any Insurance Markers, meaning that any Bad Roll will eliminate you from the game, including this upcoming roll. So, George, what are you going to do? Are you going to roll and take the risk or pass them over to Matt?

Player: Insurance Markers/Prizes/Score
Matt: 0/Column 1/$800 (1 Hot Column) George: 1/None/$400 The number of Good Rolls have dropped significantly with that move, meaning that as quickly as this round started, it'll be over very soon. I have a feeling. So, it's obvious that control of the dice is important with this next question. My mom is also making several sweet things in the kitchen for Thanksgiving dinner. Which one of these is NOT a pie that is usually served for Thanksgiving?A. Pumpkin B. Buttermilk C. Pecan D. Bamboo Matt: 86 George: 9 Magic #: 18 (Buzz-In!)And George buzzes in! What's your answer?

Post by dad90 on Nov 19, 2024 21:45:47 GMT -5
Yeah, me neither, but Bamboo is right! (Audience Applause)Most pies are made from seasonal vegetables and fruits that are harvested in the fall. Pumpkin, apple, pecan, buttermilk, rhubarb, chocolate, and mincemeat are a few of the kinds of pies you would find at most family's tables. OK George, pick up the dice. (George does so) GOOD ROLLS: 7 8 9 10 11 12 15 16 17 18Now, the Good Rolls are 7 through 12, as well as 15 through 18. You now have an Insurance Marker, but Matt doesn't. Are you going to roll the dice or pass them over to Matt?

OK, George. Go ahead and roll the dice! (George rolls the dice) And you've rolled another Double! (Doubles!) (Audience Applause)So that's your 2nd Insurance Marker, and you've rolled a 9, and of course, the only way to play that is to get rid of the 9 itself, so let's do that right now. (Number(s) Off!)Column 1: Yamaha Grand Piano - $14,900 Column 2: Australia - $13,012 Column 3: Iceland - $11,618 Column 4: Shop Til You Drop - $15,000
Player: Insurance Markers/Prizes/Score
Matt: 0/Column 1/$800 (1 Hot Column) George: 2/None/$600 Now, if you get rid of the 7, and you could be on your way to Iceland, worth almost $12,000. However, the number of Good Rolls have once again dropped, meaning that both the tension and control of the dice are beginning to increase. Let's take a look at the next question. Many families have games and traditions they do after Thanksgiving dinner. Which one of these is NOT a common Thanksgiving activity?A. An Irish Jig B. Making a Wish with a Wishbone C. Sharing what each person is thankful for D. Enjoying a Sports or Football game Matt: 99 George: 12 Magic #: 82 (Buzz-In!)And Matt buzzes in! What's your answer?

An Irish Jig
|
|
|
Post by dad90 on Nov 20, 2024 9:23:53 GMT -5
An Irish Jig is correct! (Audience Applause)Irish jigs are more commonly connected with St. Patrick's Day in the spring. Many families will have each individual share what they are thankful for. Another tradition is to make a wish with the wing bone of a turkey (a custom that was started by Romans and passed on by English colonists). There are also many sports that have games and championships on Thanksgiving Day in the United States. In some areas where it is colder, families have fun with snow outside, such as a building snowmen and snowball fights. Matt, you get control of the dice. Pick them up. (Matt does so) GOOD ROLLS: 7 8 10 11 12 15 17 18The Good Rolls are now 7, 8, 10 through 12, 15, 17 and 18. Now, if you roll, you are at risk of ending your championship reign, because you don't have any Insurance Markers, while George has 2. That being said, are you going to take the risk and roll, or pass them over to George?

OK, George, Matt has given you the dice, and as long as you get one of the Good Rolls, you'll still be in the game. You've got 2 Insurance Markers in hand in case you need to use them in the event of a Bad Roll. Roll the dice when ready. (George rolls the dice) And you've rolled another Double! (Doubles!) (Audience Applause)You've earned your 3rd Insurance Marker, and you've rolled a 10, which is good, and the only way to play that is to eliminate the 10, so let's do that right now. (Number(s) Off!)Column 1: Yamaha Grand Piano - $14,900 Column 2: Australia - $13,012 Column 3: Iceland - $11,618 Column 4: Shop Til You Drop - $15,000
Player: Insurance Markers/Prizes/Score
Matt: 0/Column 1/$800 (1 Hot Column) George: 3/None/$800 Roll an 11, and you could play the Shop 'Til You Drop mini-bonus game for a chance to win up to $15,000 in a fabulous shopping spree. There are 4 numbers left on the board, and anything could happen, so it's not over until the dice say it's over. Here comes the next question that could determine the fate for one of you... The Plymouth cooks--Mistresses Mary Brewster, Elizabeth Hopkins, Susannah Winslow, and Good wife Eleanor Billington--had to roast turkeys, partridges, and trimmings for how many guests?A.

(George does so) GOOD ROLLS: 7 8 11 12 15 18The Good Rolls are now 7, 8, 11, 12, 15 and 18.

Well Matt, it looks like turnaround is fair play. Unfortunately for you though, you don't have any Insurance Markers, so it's very simple. If you get any of the Good Rolls I've mentioned, and you will stay in the game. However, if you cannot, and the roll is not a Double, and we'll be searching for a new champion in the Championship Round. Your championship reign is on the bubble, and it could end on this roll. Roll the dice Matt, and good luck. (Matt rolls the dice)And the roll is... 14, and it's all over! (Bad Roll! GAME OVER!)And that means that George is going to the Championship Round! Congratulations!

Matt: 0/None/$800 (GAME OVER) George: 3/None/$800 (WINNER!) (Play Cue Win at 2:38) (Audience Cheers and Applause)George, we're going to get back to you in just a moment. Matt, sooner or later, I'm afraid that you were going to be defeated, but you are certainly not going to walk out of here a loser. Oh, goodness no. From our episode, you were the 2nd person ever to defeat the Super Numbers and $207,000 from that. Today though, you only won $800, but we're going to add that to all of the cash and prizes that you've won throughout the past 3 days, and you are leaving with a grand total of... $262,076 $262,076 in cash and prizes! Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for Matt Ringgenberg! (Audience Cheers and Applause)George, you did the one thing that most people could not, and that was to take down a titan of a champion that was Matt Ringgenberg. Unfortunately, you didn't win any prizes in this round, but we're going to compensate that with $1,000 in bonus cash, bringing you up to $1,800 so far, and now, you will be joining Shederick in the Championship Round, where we will crown a new champion. Who will it be? Well, why don't we find out together when Super High Rollers returns right after this! (Commercial Cue; Audience Applause)
