From the Dallas Convention Center, it's America's game!
Unusually, Pat actually carries Vanna to the puzzle board, possibly because her current dress makes it difficult for her to use stairs.
A Toss-Up is not that unusual.
Go!
Vicki solves A BUCKING BRONCO. (For some reason, the normal puzzle-solve music plays.)
Today's contestants:
Vicki Hudson: Does some voice work ("the annoying voice that puts you on hold forever", as she says), from Plano
Leonard Jones: Sales representative, from Burleson
Kristie Patton: Stay-at-home mom, from Dallas
*BEEP* Now loading..."first puzzle"...
Kristie reads what's on the board for the house minimum.
Leonard solves WINNING PRO HOCKEY'S STANLEY CUP to keep the trip! And guess what? Mike Modano of the Stars is here! Acknowledging this show is taped before the playoffs, Pat talks with Mike for a little bit.
Vicki solves FISHING & FILM REEL to keep the Gift Tag.
Go!
Vicki solves TEN-GALLON HAT. (Like before, the normal puzzle-solve music plays.)
She is ready for another puzzle!
DING DING! DING DING!
However, time is running out, so Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece. Vicki starts...
Vicki: N (DUD!)
Leonard: R (x2) ($2,600)
Kristie: T ($1,300)
Vicki: B (DUD!)
Leonard: B (Repeat)
Kristie: S (x2) ($3,900)
Vicki...
...simply solves KURT RUSSELL for the house minimum. Pat has fun with this moment. I guess as Pat noted earlier, she's not much of a gambler.
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives him:
CDHI does...
...absolutely no good.

CDHI does...
...absolutely no good.
He does not solve FERRYBOAT...
...and the $25,000 sails away. Leonard will be leaving with $7,900 cash and trip.
In the post-game, Pat and Vanna say it was nice to have Mike Modano onstage. Vanna used to followed the Atlanta Flames before they relocated to Calgary, Alberta. In its place, Atlanta has another team called the Thrashers...and did Vanna even know about that?
