The next calldown, Joel, "has Ball State University on his mighty chest". He's the assistant coach of the volleyball team, and he says they're doing great. Bob asks if the team is greater since he became coach. Of course!

Patricia will putt from the fourth line.

If Bob makes this putt, he's up to 50% of the putts this season.

He gives his inspiration putt. It curves left left towards the hole, but it rolls around the left rim. So close, and so much for 50%.

Patricia putts... and it rolls to the right.

But wait a minute! It's Hole in One... or Two!

Patricia putts again... and this one's to the left, though she was close to pulling a "Janice" with a slight curve in the ball.

It wasn't a lucky ball today. Patricia will return for the Showcase Showdown after another game.



Rod has no idea how to say the first name of the next calldown, and the letters on her nametag are as scrunched as can possibly be. It's Fiapitailluma, but we can just call her Fia.

"And look at the size of this man!" Daniel can bench press 405 pounds. He had no excuses for failing to get it all the way around...except maybe he was worried that he would break the Wheel.



Bob looked a little pale during the commercial break. It's because he found out that Fia is not Hawaiian. She's a Samoan. She must make the promise not to lay a finger on Bob. Just a kiss, but on the nose. Bob can already imagine welcoming the viewers whilst having a broken nose. :oldlol:

Lester drops Chip 4 in column 7 ...and halfway down, it flips out of the board. Now they can't find the chip, so they need another.

Lester drops his new Chip 4 in the center column ...and that one almost instantly flips out of the board. :rollold:

(At least they know where it is. Bob jokes how happy he is for the week that they spent working on this game.)
