Jackpot Round - SONG LYRICS
Early on, Gail lights up seven E's while on FP, but then comes BANKRUPT to take away $2,000. Next, Chris cashes in $5,000 with two H's. He later gets another $5K with two M's. After a lot of work, he calls a FATAL DUD in L while on the Jackpot space. He likely gave up at least $21,850 ($12,000 was in the Jackpot at that moment). Marie fills in a few letters...
