ReplyDeleteToss-Ups: To clarify on #1, it's the university. Anyway, good job to Tony for getting the other two.
ReplyDeleteRound 1: Nice payoff for Tony, but he shouldn't have bought a vowel when there were no more consonants. Good end to a bad round...
Rounds 2 and 3: Better rounds and payoffs for Kristin and Zach! This match is getting really tight...
Round 4: At least everyone goes home with $10,000 or more!
Bonus Round: Pretty easy Bonus Round.
