Lori's choices for the Bonus Round are Thing, Phrase, and What Are You Doing?
$100,000 Bonus Round:
Lori has husband Mike, daughter Ashley, son Tyler and Tyler's partner Eric in the audience with her.
Lori spins the Bonus Wheel, and lands on the first A in AMERICA'S.
The category is WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
RSTLNE gives us this:
L _ _ ER _ N _
T _ E / _ _ _ _
Lori's BR Picks: H P B O
LO _ ER _ N _
THE / BOO _
Lori guesses LOWERING THE BOOK, but sadly, we'll be LOWERING THE BOOM on her, as she can't solve for $37,000.
Compared to the first three weeks, this week did not do quite as well. Our California Coast contestants took home $211,452 in cash and prizes, this week. Highlights from this week include the Bonus Round win on Monday, and Wednesday's game where all three contestants took home more than $10K in cash and prizes. At least this version of California Coast did better than last season's version.
Next week will be Let's Eat! Week, and judging by the name of the theme week, I have a feeling that this week will be similar to Delicious Destinations. This will be a special week on the Buy a Vowel boards, as we have yet another STAFF MEMBER that will be taking part on this particular theme week. If this week is just like Delicious Destinations in regards to theming, then let's hope it goes better than last season's Delicious Destinations.
