That was an unfortunately narrow loss on Stack the Deck. I would’ve guessed $23,618. That Mazda looked more expensive than $20,000.

[Teddy]

On the other side of things, that Spelling Bee was equally nerve-wracking, but ended on a winning note.

[DRPrice]

     Contestants like Nicholas just confirm the theory that contestants are often chosen for how loud and annoying they can be.

I can't for the life of me figure out how that trip to Toronto could have been worth $8400.

R/T coach from L.A. prices about $295 per person.

I am on the web site of that hotel right now, and you can get a 2 BR suite for $363.30 per night, Canadian. 

They didn't specifically say those hockey tickets were for the Maple Leafs.  They didn't even say it was a pro game.

Add it all up and you're still a long way from $8400.

[dconnary]

EVIL setup in Stack the Deck!

[Roadgeek Adam]

Kind of an interesting post-show note. The 3 pm NASCAR show on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio that I listen to spent the first part of the show discussing Lane, who had the Drew tattoo.
