Start of NYC Week 2
To remember 9/11 (which was 20 years ago as of today), let's take a look back at the remaining shows from S17's road trip to NYC (which is also the last time the show went there while the Twin Towers still existed). Now please figure out this puzzle (presented by the Rockettes)!
EPISODE #3172: BEST FRIENDS WEEK (NYC)
Airdate: 11/16/99
If you guessed CURTAIN CALL, you're right! You win absolutely nothing!
Anyway, Tuesday's six-pack:
Rich Decicco & Edward “Ed” Biehayn: They met at work about 15 years ago. They like to play softball and cards.
The men are in A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN.
DUDS: S (Rich/Ed), M (Stacie/Mitchell), D (Tonya/Vincent)
1ST PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: a $2,500 GC for GHURKA leather accessories
Free Spin was placed on the wedge ledge.
PERFECTION! Stacie solves MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE. Can they turn that 4 into a 7?
Stacie's aware that there's many FLOATS in that parade.
The normal puzzle solve cue played here as well.
Vanna throws us to commercial from a carriage.
2ND PRIZE ADDED TO WHEEL: Hotard Vacations to New Orleans (marked Mardi Gras) worth $9,500
JACKPOT ROUND
SPONSOR: Hot Pockets
Pat claims he was tossing debris at the crowd. Also, Pat mentions that they'll be in N'awlins at the Superdome later that season.
Rich solves HE'S LIKE A BROTHER TO ME.
BANKRUPT: Tonya/Vincent
LEFT BEHIND IN POT: $7,300
DING DING! DING DING!
FINAL SPIN:GHURKA $6,000!
Oh boy...
Rich/Ed: L ($7,600+)
Stacie/Mitchell: 3 H's ($18,000)
Tonya/Vincent: K
Rich/Ed: B ($13,600+)
Rich solves TOOTHBRUSH HOLDER to claim the cash, the trips, and the game!
DUD DURING SPEED-UP: K (Tonya/Vincent)
Yet another useless Free Spin...
WINNINGS SO FAR: $35,900
NO BANKRUPT TRASH!
BONUS ROUND:
Rich & Ed at Mardi Gras...should be a fun time. Rich picks the W.
RSTLNE is limited:
They go for DPCA...
...yep. Vanna's not moving.
AIRPORT, BARROOM, and CARPORT are nowhere close to the right answer of BOROUGH, so goodbye sony style. They still leave with $28,050 in cash & trips.
Pat mentions they they have their own postcards to send to contestants that won a trip on this show (so that they can write to the hosts about their experience).
