The category is EVENT.

Agnes' BR Picks: P G C U 

_ _ _ _ US

_ _ _ _ _ R 

There will not be a JOYOUS AFFAIR for Agnes.....






















...because she does not solve for $100,000. This is the first time this season that the top prize has been landed on, and also our first $100K/$1M loss of the season. It probably won't be the last, either. 



If the Bonus Round is not won at all, this week, then we will be skunked for the second time, this season. I better start getting a tomato bath, ready, because with these difficult Bonus Round puzzles, a skunking is bound to happen. 

Happy Thanksgiving, Wheel Watchers!
