It's almost time for Game 2 of The All-New Big Risk. Thanks to all for the kind words about TBR's new format.
Michael Clifford's the reigning champion and will try to add to his winnings of CY$7500.
If you played in Game 1 and are not the champ, please sit on your hands and let someone else play.
Here comes the question. The two players who come the closest, high or low, play against Michael...
A recent episode of Street Smarts centered around this seemingly simple question, "How many states are in the United States?" Several of the "street savants" missed this question. Of all the clips shown, what was the lowest incorrect response given?
(time passes)
Well, a bunch of the people of the street, for some unknown reason, said "52". The highest wrong answer given was "59". But, here, we looked for the lowest number and it was...
...32 states in the U.S. Next question: How many Street Smarts staffers were driven to drink after seeing so many people answer incorrectly?
While we chew on that, let's see who came the closest to 32...
Joseph Kristoff 28
...the gatorman! And Michael Clifford's other challenger will be...
Josh Warren 37
...Josh. To everyone else, I *hope* to sneak in one more game before my wedding. But can't guarantee it.
====================================================================== Voice guy: "To Tell The Truth" -- starring Dan Rather (audience laughs) will not be seen at this time. That's because the guests' affidavits have apparently been forged. (more laughs) In its place, we present the following. ======================================================================The Ghost of Jay Stewart: And now a test of knowledge and a test of luck -- on the game where tens of thousands of cyber-dollars can be won or lost on the turn of a card. This is The Big Risk.
TGoJS: And now, here's the star of our show, Doug Morris!
(Doug walks from behind The Big Risk board)
Doug: Thank you, ghost of Jay Stewart. Hellloooooo, everybody and welcome to The All-New Big Risk. We have a champion going for his second win. Here to introduce him and his challengers is our co-host, D.J. Hamilton.
(audience cheers) (D.J. walks out wearing a pair of blue jeans and a TBR t-shirt)
D.J.: Hi, Doug.
Doug: Well, The Big Risk shirts have arrived.
D.J.: And no, we didn't have Kathie Lee's kids design these, if you know what I mean.
D.J: Joining us for tonight's game is our returning champion, Michael Clifford. He's won CY$7500 and he'll be Player 1. Player 2 tonight is Joseph Kristoff and Player 3 is Josh Warren.
