It’s Wheel of Fortune, America’s Game and we’re posting the Bonus Puzzle with the winner’s final prize amount. By way of comparison, the Jeopardy! payoff is also included with a link to the recap of that game.

A mixed bag this week: 3 reruns and 2 new games

Mon 9-7-20 (rerun from 11-12-19) $58,200
On Jeopardy: $22,600

Chris added one C and one A to his puzzle, all in the first word. In some puzzles, that might
_ E _ _ T U M _ _ I N G _ _ O C K,
but not today! Chris solved it right away and topped off his $21,200 winnings with another $37,000.

Tue 9-8-20 $32,563
On Jeopardy: $17,801

Patrick had a Wild Card that entitled him to an extra consonant. He didn’t get that M, but he did get two C’s and two G’s. He also got one A, although picking that vowel probably
C _ S _ H I _ _ H _ S O _ V _,
as well as the $45,000 on the card!

Wed 11-13-19 (rerun from 11-13-19) $52,250
On Jeopardy: $34,801 (Tournament Score)

Scott added two M’s, one D and two O’s to his puzzle. Those M’s made all the difference and it was a
_ A S _ O _ I _ S _ A N _ R _ _ O G _ I _ I O _
Scott picked up an extra $37,000 on top of the $15,250 from the main game.

Thu 9-10-20 $56,890
On Jeopardy: $21,074

Rosario got a C, an M and two O’s. I had the feeling she picked those letters on the hunch that the first word was “coming”. Even though it wasn’t, they turned out
T _ _ E _ T E _ _ A R C _ _ I C E _
Rosario won a MX-5 Miata hardtop convertible worth $33,990, in addition to the $22,900 from the main game.

Fri 9-11-20 (rerun from 3-10-20) $17,510
On Jeopardy: $23,000

Annette added two D’s and two I’s to the bonus puzzle. Nothing came to her as
_ H _ S _ _ O N _ S _ I _ K _ _ _ W _ Y.
That’s never a surprise when a compound word is involved. Annette missed out on a Cadillac XT4.
