MG Round 1 Question A

 

 

(audience cheers) (Doug presses button revealing Round 1 questions
on the toaster)

Doug: Brian, you won the right to go first.  A or B?

Brian: I'll go with "A," Doug.

 

 

Going with A and we're up and running.

Tough times have fallen upon Mr. Potato Head's household. The other 
day, he was on the street selling off his << BLANK >>.

(think music plays)

Doug: All right, everyone's set.  Brian, the question again...

Tough times have fallen upon Mr. Potato Head's household. The other 
day, he was on the street selling off his << BLANK >>.

Brian: His nose.

(audience applause)

Doug: Great answer.  Really anything associated with Mr. Potato Head
is a good answer.  Troy, we'll start with you.  

Troy: Boy, you'd think he and the Mrs. was getting some residuals from 
that ridiculous tire commercial earlier this year.  I say he had to sell
off his [TATER TOTS].

(audience laughs) (buzz)

Doug: Interesting answer.  Over to Chad.  First answer as part of the
family.  What did you come up with?

Chad: You can always depend on the world's oldest profession in any 
economic shape...

[HIS FRENCH FRY]

(audience laughs) (buzz)

Doug: So far, entertaining answers -- but no match.  Nolan, do you
offer a match or another funny?

Nolan: Well, Doug...too many good answers.  You might want to grab me 
a few more thousand index cards here--I'm going to need them.  I said 
"EYES." 

(smattering of applause)  (buzz)

Doug: Creative answer -- but no match.  We'll get you more cards as
we come on down to the Ryan Express.  Tough times have fallen upon 
Mr. Potato Head's household. The other day, he was on the street 
selling off his...

Ryan: Nose!

+======+
| Nose |
+======+

(ding; audience applause)
 
Doug: First match in the game.  CY$100 for Brian.  Chris do you make
it CY$200?

Chris: Well, he can't be THAT bad off...he'll be in "Toy Story 3" next 
year.  But, to make ends meet until then, he had to sell of his...

+-------+
| SPARE |
| NOSE  |
+-------+

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: Spare nose, main nose, match either way.  Joe?

Joe: First of all, Doug, it's very nice to be back around here.

Second, a big welcome to Chad.  Good fortune to you, sir.  Here's 
hoping you last as long as, and are as beloved as, Jay.

As for the question...I would imagine the first thing Mr. Potato 
Head would try to sell off would be his...

+------+
| NOSE |
+------+

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: And that sweeps the bottom row.

 

 

 

 

TATER TOTS | HIS FRENCH FRY | EYES
NOSE | SPARE NOSE | NOSE

Brian's response: NOSE

 

 

Doug: Well, Brian, nice start for the first round.  CY$300.  Chad,
your first turn at bat now.
