Player of the Week: Michael Bystrzycki
My Weekly Rating: 7 (C-)
Pat’s penultimate week as host marks the return of Fan Favorites from last season.
This jackpot week in America’s Game was anything butt…literally. Thursday’s show started with probably the ZONK ANSWER OF THE WEEK when Tavaris Williams gave his appalling Toss Up Answer of “Right In The BUTT” 😛 The correct answer was “This Is The Best”. But the lunacy didn’t stop here, folks. Paul Dodson (from Wednesday’s show) took his MDW to his BR, but his bad choice of letters resulted in the infamous “QU- Trap” costing him his car and Jackpot (the answer there was “Quibbling”). Anyway we had 2 BR wins this week, the first on Tuesday for a car and the $22K+ jackpot by Blake Swoboda, who went home with $96,750 C & P, followed on Friday by BR win #2 by Michael Bystrzycki, whoended our Daytime Slate this week sweeping a trip, the Jackpot, and a car, as Sajak’s biggest winner of the week with $111,160 C & P. Too bad the rest of the week (especially with our other BRs) were just as appalling as Tavaris’ sorry NSFW answer. (Statistical Losing Week)
GSQ’s final choices for Week 38 are next.
