For the lonely man who's late for his meetup with the pizza man, it's America's game! Welcome to Tiki Time Week!
We always make sure this Toss-Up is not burned into our monitors when we're finished.
Go!
Heidi solves HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?.
These three prefer to climb to new heights.
Heidi Calcaterra: Works as a part-time Royal Courier associate for the US Postal Service, from Ottumwa, IA
Taylor Upchurch: Senior in secondary education who wants to teach biology and coach in basketball (possibly), and he's engaged to be married "in a bit"; from Stillwater, OK
Via Thomas: Customer sales and service representative for a large global telecommunication company, also a mixologist, blackjack dealer, singer, and recipient of a real estate license; from Lemon Grove, CA
Go!
Via solves IMAGINARY FRIEND.
It came back to Via who solves CANADA'S NORTHWEST TERRITORIES.
All that melting snow makes the maple leaf flag look shinier than the Jackpot space, doesn't it?
Who needs to spin? Taylor solves DISPOSABLE WATERPROOF CAMERA... and being the Prize Puzzle, he gets a trip to the Caribbean and stay at Wyndham Nassau Beach & Crystal Palace Casino worth $4,800.
We have our cameras ready for when you lift up that Mystery Wedge to find $10,000 in cash!
Heidi solves CLOSED-CAPTIONED FOR THE HEARING IMPAIRED.
Go!
Taylor solves PARCHEESI.
A partial recovery from the last round, and he begins this one!
DING DING! DING DING!
But the clock is holding back that recovery. It's already time for Pat to give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $400 + $1,000 for $1,400 a piece. Taylor begins.

In the post-game chat, Pat knows that Vanna's a game player. We have Parcheesi, and she liked it. She learned a new game called Mexican Train Dominoes. It's fun! 8 people can play! We don't have time to find 8 people, however.
