Get in the Game! (Day 3)
From Chicago
From Navy Pier in Chicago, it's America's Game! ... No, really. It's America's Game.
Time to "Get in the Game" with this $1,000 Toss-Up:
TITLE

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Ding!

I L L _ S _ _ _ T E D
Santos IDs SPORTS ILLUSTRATED.
Let's meet this episode's players (all from Illinoisans):
Santos Lopez: Oak Lawn, married for 18 years, claims his wife made him come here; has two daughters, a son, two dogs, a cat, a fish, and five birds
Ashley Michels: Carol Stream, freshman at Northern Illinois University studying mass education, part of the Delta Gamma women's fraternity; enjoys musical theater, once played Peter Pan; the provider of this episode
Apollonia Leoni: Chicago, receptionist at a law firm; Master's student at Dominican University; married for 7 years
We've gone through first down and ten, but let's go double or nothing with this $2,000 Toss-Up:
FOOD & DRINK
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Ding!
_ _ _ D O _ _ I _ H
E V E _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Ashley knows you can find a HOT DOG WITH EVERYTHING anywhere in Chi-Town.
Tonight's sports package comes from the Chicago White Sox (a game at U.S. Cellular Field, catered services in a diamond suite, a photo on the field, an autographed jersey and baseball, and a visit from a former White Sox great) and it's worth $5,000 (labeled SOX)!
We're hitting the homestretch of the first quarter, but let's try to get that $10,000 before we go, okay?
BEFORE & AFTER

Santos solves GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS MASCOTS.
BANKRUPT: Ashley ($0)
LOSE A TURN: Apollonia ($7,950)
Two L's and two C's...
Tonight's Jackpot Round is sponsored by the healthy brand V8.
Will someone hit the JACKPOT this time?

Apollonia's not SETTING A HIGH STANDARD with that conservative solve, but her total's bumped up to the $1,000 minimum.
DUD: L (Ashley)
BANKRUPT: Santos ($0)
LOSE A TURN: Apollonia ($0 + WILD)
UNCLAIMED JACKPOT: $10,400
Two H's and two D's...
Vanna plugs from an overlook of the Chicago River.
Tonight's Mystery (and Big Money) Round is brought to you by yet another healthy brand: Eggland's Best.
Will the MYSTERY wedge bring about a narrow defeat or an upset? Or will the BIG MONEY wedge result in a blowout?
OCCUPATION
_ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
How about a boost in these meager scores? It's a...
PRIZE PUZZLE!
S C U _ _
I _ S T R U C T O R
When Pat asks Santos why he solved for just a Benjamin, he screams, "PRIZE PUZZLE!" And he might need a SCUBA INSTRUCTOR on his trip to the Grand Cayman (Westin Casuarina Resort & Spa, Funjet Vacations) worth $6,200, giving him a grand total of $6,300 that round.
TRIP ID: MS2335357
DUD: E (Ashley)
BANKRUPTS: Santos ($0, via the MYSTERY wedge), Apollonia ($1,350 + WILD)
More like it, but these players are hungry for more winnings. $3,000, you may ask?
RHYME TIME

Ding!
I N _ T T O

Everybody's IN IT TO WIN IT, but Santos solves this one.
More rounds mean bigger scores, right?

Now we're hitting the seventh-inning stretch; the contestants can give that wheel a break. Every consonant is worth...$6,000! Oh boy...

DUDS

After the bell: L (Apollonia)
DQ: Ashley's blanking ($12,500)
Cumulative Maingame Winnings: $23,400
Total Bankrupt Trash: $1,350 + WILD
BONUS ROUND
If Santos is successful, he could win more than just a gold medal. Up for grabs are one of two GMCs: the Sierra pickup truck or the Yukon SUV - or maybe even $100,000!
His big spin lands him on the H in CASH. Could that mean a hefty prize?

That wasn't so helpful at all. And here's a sad line of DIALOGUE - he loses $40,000. But $20,400 isn't so bad.
