MG Round 1 Question A
(audience cheers) (Doug presses button revealing Round 1 questions on the toaster) Doug: Matthew, you won the right to go first. I have two questions here -- marked A and B. Choose a question by letter and we'll start the fun. Matthew: My first choice is "A".
Doug: (grabs A; walks to panel) All right, A it is and we're off and running. Here's the first question. Paul is a very punctual man. He leaves work at exactly 5:00 every day. Unfortunately, he works as a << BLANK >>. (MG '7x wank think music plays)
Doug: BTW, in the midst of this show's 10th anniversary, I want to take a moment to briefly mention Net Poker's 5th anniversary. We taped a special down at the Bonus Island Resort and Casino -- celebrating that 5th anniversary. Watch for it during the week of the 4th of July -- right here on VBS. (audience cheers) Doug: OK, waiting on Jay to get in there.
Doug: And they're all set. Matthew, here's the question again. Larry is a very punctual man. He leaves work at exactly 5:00 every day. Unfortunately, he works as a << BLANK >>. Matthew: The only thing I can think of is "Taxi Driver". Doug: You talkin' to me? (light laughter) Sorry, I couldn't resist. Will, we start with you. Will: Well, I actually see Paul every Friday, as he's walking out. He works as a...... ***** BARTENDER ***** (buzz) Doug: I bet he was at the wet bar after ya'll celebrated 25 shows on Net Auction. Over to Jay. Jay L.: (card) +----------+ | NIGHT- | | WATCHMAN | +----------+ (buzz) (smattering of applause) Doug: That was my first thought. Jay number two. Jay C.: Well, I'm assuming the answer should be a job that takes place at night, so I'm going to go with a... [Security guard] (buzz) Doug: Another goodie. Any job that's not 9:00-to-5:00 works here. Over to Ryan, now. Larry is a very punctual man. He leaves work at exactly 5:00 every day. Unfortunately, he works as a. Ryan: (card) +=========+ | Traffic | | Cop | +=========+ Doug: Traffic cop. (buzz) Another goodie. Over to Fast Eddie. Eddie: Several direcctions we can go with this one, but I said ... [flip] NIGHT WATCHMAN (buzz) Doug: Well, you matched Jay. And Adam, wrap this up for us. Adam: I appeal to the judge...not because I think there's any controversy here, I'm just saying that I appeal to the judge. He can't take his eyes off me, frankly. (light laughter from the crowd) Who can blame him? I look great. Anyway, I said... +-------------------+ | | | NIGHT | | WATCHMAN | | | +-------------------+ (buzz) Doug: Not that there's anything wrong with that -- except it didn't match.
BARTENDER | NIGHT WATCHMAN | SECURITY GUARD
TRAFFIC COP | NIGHT WATCHMAN | NIGHT WATCHMANMatthew's response: TAXI DRIVER
Doug: Well, darn, Matthew. If you thought night watchman, you'd have 300. But don't despair. Plenty of game left.MG ROUND 1 CONTINUES
