_ _ E N E _ E R
_ _ _ O _ G E

John Sly: communications specialist for an air medical helicopter as well as a firefighter and a roller coaster enthusiast from Coatesville, PA
Lashan Laguan: realtor during the day and a singer at night who's also a mentor from Florence, MS
Katelynn Winkler: Arizona State Univ. law student from Mesa, AZ
(NOTE: For those of you not aware especially myself, John is one of the administrators of GoldenRoad.net, a "Price is Right" message board.)
$2,000 Tossup - SHOW BIZ

PRIZE ON THE WHEEL: trip to the Cova Hotel in San Francisco (w/ tickets to "Beach Blanket Babylon") worth $5,670
Jackpot Round - FOOD AND DRINK
In the middle of the round, John cashes in $7,500 w/ three P's. But after some work, he hits LAT to leave $7,900 on the table. Lashan's next w/ three H's...
H O N E _ - _ L A _ E _
H A _ / _ I _ H
P I N E A P P L E
...and she then solves HONEY-GLAZED HAM WITH PINEAPPLE for $2,400.

BANKRUPT HIT: Lashan at the start
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $9,550

Round 2 - PHRASE (PRIZE PUZZLE)
In the middle of the round, John picks up the MDW w/ two N's. He fills in most of the puzzle...
I / W O N ' T / _ E
_ _ E _ _ I N _ / _ _
E - _ A I _ / W _ I _ E
I ' _ / A W A _
...but he says "I WON'T BE READING MY E-MAIL WHILE I'M AWAY" which is definitely WRONG since there was no A in the fourth word; he likely gave back the MDW, $2,150 as well as the bonus trip. Lashan next calls the C's...
I / W O N ' T / _ E
C _ E C _ I N _ / _ _
E - _ A I _ / W _ I _ E
I ' _ / A W A _
She'll be saying "I WON'T BE CHECKING MY E-MAIL WHILE I'M AWAY" to her family and co-workers, because she's won $1,800 and a trip to the Pueblo Bonito Rose Resort & Spa in CABO SAN LUCAS worth $5,957; she's won $7,757 that round.

Mystery Round - WHAT'S THAT SONG?[/b]
John starts w/ two A's on FP. After a lot of work, he lands on the Mystery Wedge between $300 and $800. He doesn't risk $7,100, and he decides to solve w/ this showing...
O H / _ H A T / _ U N
I T / I _ / T O / _ I _ E
I N / A / O N E - H O _ _ E
O _ E N / _ _ E I _ H
He redeems himself w/ "OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE IN A ONE-HORSE OPEN SLEIGH" for said amount. Had he went for that MW...he would've gone BANKRUPT! And he knows that these lyrics are from "Jingle Bells", meaning he's won $10,100 that round!
PERFECT ROUND!

_ _ _ E R / T H E
_ _ _ T _ E T O E
Each of the five remaining consonants are worth $1,300. John's next consonant call is an M...
