I forgot to bring my American flag to tonight’s video.
Zach was aggressive, but it just didn’t work out for him tonight. Justin could have been a little more aggressive on his Daily Double wager.

She did, and was rewarded handsomely for her wager… and for Justin’s unfortunate miss. He was a good player and could have been dangerous with a game under his belt.
Dare we say “fire up the carousel”?

You obviously haven’t had a girlfriend drag you kicking and screaming on to this ride like I have. ‘Cause if you had this would have been an easy get.
Remember the movie “One, Two, Three” with James Cagney. One of the gags in the movie is using the song “Yellow Pokadot Bikini” as a torture device. The “Small World” song that is repeated ad nausium on the ride would work much better. Few adult males emerge from this ride without being scarred for life by the experience.
I went on the ride when I was 6 – it was much less nauseating at that age, I assume!
