San Francisco has plenty of TOURISTS AND LOCALS, and with the extra cash, Anthone will see many of them on his trip to ARUBA (Divi Village Golf & Beach Resort, Divi Resorts + FlightGuru, $9,003).
Anthone almost got tongue-tied before saying the last word. Also, it seems like he left out the last S in the first word, but got away with it.

CHAT: In season 37, the hosts visited Fort Point, under the Golden Gate Bridge. On the bridge's opening day (AKA Pedestrian Day), about 15,000 people paid 25¢ to cross it. Pat tries to do the math after he say that adds up to $300 an hour – in reality, it's $3,750.
