From the Kansas City Convention Center, it's America's game! This is Big XII College Week!
After the usual farewell between Pat and Vanna, we need to start our Toss-Up round.
Go!
Megan solves OFFICIAL WEBSITE.
Does this trio like the show's website?
Megan Treer: 1st Year law student at University of Kansas, from Lawrence
Jaclyn Heider: Sophomore at University of Missouri Columbia majoring in nutritional science, hopes to be a dental hygienist; from Fulton
Kaleb Walker: Sophomore at University of Nebraska at Lincoln majoring in English, also on a rugby team; from Rapid City, SD
Go!
Megan solves TATTOO ARTIST.
What better than to tattoo a Wheel to your body? Don't forget that the $10,000 prize needs to be face up!
Megan guesses SIPPING HOT COCOA IN THE FIRE. Fortunately, she has her Free Spin token.
If Charlie's feeling too cold, we have ways to warm him up while he promotes a Contiki Holidays Mediterranean escape including the Greek island of Mykonos (labeled MEDITERRANEAN) worth $5,500.
Kaleb solves FINANCIAL & BAND-AID.
If we're lucky, they won't need either aid in the Mystery Round, but they might need both. There's the risk of finding a BANKRUPT, but there's the reward of an eBay shopping spree worth $10,000.
Perfection! Kaleb solves THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART for lots of stuff.
Go!
Megan solves ALLERGY MEDICINE because she's allergic to second place.
By no means is she allergic to spinning the Wheel.
DING DING! DING DING!
Makes her wish Pat was allergic, but he's not, so he's giving it a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $600 + $1,000 for $1,600 a piece. Megan begins.
Megan: T ($1,600)
Jaclyn: S ($1,600)
Kaleb: R (x2) ($3,200)
Megan: G (DUD!)
Jaclyn: N ($3,200)
Kaleb: D ($4,800)
Megan: M (DUD!)
Jaclyn guesses PRIDE PARENTS before solving PROUD PARENTS.
BONUS ROUND:
So many people are proud of Megan for winning this game! But she's not done, as she can still win a car or cash up to $100,000!
RSTLNE gives her:

In the post-game chat, Vanna tells us that we like to show points of interest. This time, we allowed a special correspondent to get out of his room. We're talking about Charlie O'Donnell, who's visiting the American Jazz Museum in Kansas City. Some displays include Charlie Parker's saxophone, Louis Armstrong's Time Magazine cover, Ella Fitzgerald's dress and eyeglasses, and music scores/tour itineraries by Duke Ellington. There's also the Blue Room, a museum exhibit that doubles as a working jazz club! Charlie has the perfect voice for this tour!
