Doug: Andy, the rule on the car still applies. If you win two more games, the Jag's yours. Of course, if anyone makes a royal flush without the aid of any wild cards, that player wins the car. As we welcome Joe back and JX aboard, it's Video Poker time. We've already given each player 10 points. Now we're about to give you guys five questions. Chime in with the right answer and you win 10 more points. After the fifth question, we'll take each of you to the video screen. Let's start this next game with this...
Emeril Lagasse is a celebrity chef and...
\ had a sitcom briefly on UPN
\ hosts a cooking show on TLC
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: JX.
JX: none of the above
Doug: That's it.

Doug: Emeril's short-lived sitcom was on NBC and his cooking show is on the Food Network.
D.J.: Bam! (audience laughs)
Doug: And the president of the local Emeril fan club's on our staff, apparently. Next question...
Peter Ueberroth, who recently dropped out of the running in California's gubernatorial recall election, previously served as...
\ czar of the 1988 Calgary Olympics
\ commissioner of Major League Baseball
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: Andy.
Andy: commissioner of Major League Baseball
Doug: Right.

Doug: He was a leader in the '84 Olympics in L.A. And speaking of L.A. ...
The city of Los Angeles...
\ was founded in the year 1781
\ is home to two NBA teams
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: JX.
JX: all of the above
Doug: Correct.

Doug: Factually, L.A. was founded in 1781 and is home to two NBA teams. But in reality, L.A. was founded in 1781 and is home to the Lakers and some minor league roundball team. (audience laughs and applauds) And with that, Joe, let's see if you can chime in on this...
Dan Miller is the name of a...
\ news anchor in Nashville
\ member of O-Town
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: Andy.
Andy: all of the above
Doug: Right on!

Doug: And some of you remember the news anchor Dan Miller also was the announcer on The Pat Sajak Show on CBS. He should not be confused with the Dan Miller who was a personality on what was then The Nashville Network. OK, last question before we go to the video screen.
"The Twist" was a #1 song for Chubby Checker in the year...
\ 1960
\ 1962
\ all of the above
\ none of the above
Doug: Joe.
Joe: 1960
Doug: No, sorry. (Andy buzzes in) Andy.
Andy: all of the above
Doug: That's it.

Doug: And if I'm not mistaken, Chubby didn't release that song originally. But, indeed, it was a chart-topping single in 1960 and again reached #1 in '62. OK, after five questions, our champion Andy has the lead at 40 points, JX with 30 -- Joe, hope you have better luck at the video screen. Now, Andy and Joe know this drill already. But for JX's benefit and those who want to see Deej barely dressed again... (some men in the crowd hoot and holler over D.J.'s bikini top and jeans) ...politely explain how things work before they go really nuts.
|
D.J.: May be too late, but anyway. The video screen hides 24 playing cards behind these numbers. Remember, we're using just the Ace through 9 of each suit. You'll each take up to two turns at the video screen. If you don't like what you drew on the first turn, trade in any or all the cards for new ones.
|
D.J.: And here again are the possible combinations and their values. Gotta draw at least a pair of Queens to gain points -- or else we gotta take 5 points away.
Doug: OK, Joe, anything can happen. Let's make it happen.
