Jackpot Round - SONG LYRICS (PRIZE PUZZLE)
_ E _ E _ R A T E
_ _ _ _ / T _ _ E S
_ _ _ E / _ _ !
They're from the song "Celebration" by Kool & The Gang, as Sarah dominates and solves "CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES, COME ON!" for $1,200, the MDW (picked up at the start with an R)...and a trip to the Turtle Bay Resort in OAHU, HI worth $5,945. She wins a total of $7,145 that round.

========
Round 2 - SAME NAME
Midway in the round, Anne fills in the T while on FP. She also calls the W for the Wild Card. But after filling in most of the puzzle, she duds out with an L while on the Protravelgear.com gift tag. Mike next goes BANKRUPT near $3,500. Sarah then puts in two R's...

Mystery Round - PHRASE
Mike LATs out right off the bat. Sarah secondly does some work, but she misses w/ S. Third, Anne puts in the letters spelling DAN and buys the remaining U's before saying a W while on the Mystery Wedge next to the invisible MDW. She risks $1K...for the $10,000! But she then strikes out with an M to let $11,000 go unclaimed. Mike then puts up the C's...
C A U _ H T / W I T H
_ O U _ / H A N D
I N / T H E
C O O _ I E / _ A _
