Pat is Correct!
Here are today's contestants!
Jeannie Tap is from Memphis, TN. She's a nurse. She has a cockatiel named Screech and a cocker spaniel named Andy, but nicknamed Cat, short for Chester Andrew Tap.
Bruce Crotter is from Fresno, CA. He has three children. He's a personal trainer and certified deep water rescue lifeguard. He's an arm-wrestling champion and takes at least 92 supplements a day.
Steve Arnotto is from San Pedro, CA. He works at a major automotive firm. He grew up on a farm in Northern California, but moved to this half of the state about ten years ago. He's a comedy buff and can probably recite every episode of Cheers.
There's an egghead.com gift tag out on the wheel to start.
