From the Ohio State Fair in Columbus, it's America's game! Welcome to Family Week!
Today's teams:
Chris & Kevin (brothers): Chris is a corrections officer and also a member of ASME Council 93 Local 419. Kevin works as a residential counselor for a human services corporation, and he is also a graduate student. Both are from South Boston, MA.
Katherine & Kristin (mother/daughter): Katherine is a Teamster and a truck driver. Kristin is a future freshman at Bryant College. Both are from Raynham, MA.
Maribeth & Sue (sisters): Maribeth is a 30-year member of the Association of Flight Attendants in Chicago. Sue is a mother of two who just recently moved to Texas.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, just a little taste of the Big Money family. Let's play!
Chris & Kevin solve CINCINNATI REDS.
A little work with that Wheel, and you might just get your reward with the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces!
Chris & Kevin solve COUNTRY SINGER TRAVIS TRITT.
We still have some time left, so let's play another round!
DING DING! DING DING!
But it's not much time, so Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants will be worth... $300 a piece. The brothers begin.

BONUS ROUND:
Chris & Kevin make it to Bonus Land, and they're already in the Friday Finals! Still, we could award a prize like a boat or the $25,000.
Chris picks the L, and we'd better award a prize this time.

They keep guessing CAT for the first word. Too much Dr. Seuss or Tennessee Williams? They do not solve CUT IN HALF...
...and they don't take the pickup truck. Chris & Kevin still have $8,450 and come back on Friday.
