From the Nokia Center at Grand Prairie in Dallas, it's America's game!
We round up our first Toss-Up puzzle of the day:
Go!
Kanvin shouts BIGGER IS BETTER.
Their big chance to introduce themselves:
Kanvin Raven: Officer of the law ("I've been called worse!") for the city of Plano, also AAGD officer of the year in 2005, and he works at the Special Olympics; from McKinney
Bo Payton: Runs a bar in north Dallas
Go!
Just as loudly, Kanvin solves SNAIL MAIL.
Bo solves ACTOR MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY.
An early tie. Amanda could join in if she gets a turn, or she could break it in style with a Jackpot win!
Amanda solves THIN RICE NOODLES WITH SHRIMP, and no doubt that she'll be ordering some for her lastminutetravel.com holiday in Singapore worth $4,500.
For this round, we stir a pair of Mystery Wedges into the Wheel, one of which is hiding a Toyota Yaris worth $13,210!
Kanvin quickly solves THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY DUCKLING and reclaims the lead.
Go!
Amanda solves PUBLIC LIBRARY and has the lead again.
Shush, please! Amanda needs to concentrate if she's gonna be sure to hit that $5,000 space.
Amanda solves NUTRITION LABEL.
DING DING! DING DING!
Okay, he can at least call the first consonant after Pat gives the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth $300 + $1,000 for $1,300 a piece. Kanvin starts!
Kanvin: N ($1,300)
Bo: R (x2) ($2,600)
Amanda: T ($1,300)
Kanvin: C (DUD!)
BONUS ROUND:
RSTLNE gives her:

This time, he's the one who should rest his throat, and while he does, Charlie can show us a Collette Vacations tour of San Jose, Costa Rica (labeled COSTA RICA) worth $5,800.
Even though a slim $10,000 space just screams danger, he'll find a way to hit it, we're sure. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)

In the post-game chat, Pat knows that Vanna was a friendly waitress in a number of places. She started out working at a soda fountain making orangeades and lemonades and flipping hamburgers, then she went to a breakfast place, then an Italian dinner place, and finally Wheel of Fortune! It's an amazing career path.
