- THE SUPER BOWL IS SUNDAY.
I WANT TO GIVE FOUR FOOTBALL FANS
FROM MY AUDIENCE A CHANCE
TO WIN A TICKET TO THE BIG GAME.
WE'RE GONNA START BY PLAYING A BRAND-NEW GAME...
[voice echoing] CALLED "THE FICKLE FINGER OF FATE."
[cheers and applause]
ALL RIGHT, LET'S FIND OUR PLAYERS.
WHERE ARE JEANNIE HOBART BERRY
AND ARLENE HOLTAN
AND JACQUELINE DOZALE
AND TERESA BOROWDI?
- HI. - HI.
HI.
HELLO.
ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT, WE CAN SEE WHO'S WHO HERE.
- OH, GIRLS.
- THAT'S RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU CAN MAKE FRIENDS WITH EVERYBODY.
THAT'S OKAY.
WHO IS WHO? WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
- TERESA. - TERESA.
- JACQUELINE. - JACQUELINE.
- I'M JEANNIE. - JEANNIE.
- ARLENE. - OKAY.
ALL RIGHT, SO HERE'S--
BY THE END OF THE SHOW,
ONE OF YOU WILL BE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL.
[all cheering]
ONE OF YOU.
ALL RIGHT, SO FOR THIS FIRST GAME,
THE TWO OF YOU WILL BE A TEAM.
JEANNIE AND JACQUELINE.
LET'S GET JEANNIE AND JACQUELINE TOGETHER.
ALL RIGHT?
- OKAY. - OKAY.
COME ON OVER HERE, THEN.
ALL RIGHT.
AND YOU TWO WILL BE A TEAM, ARLENE AND TERESA.
AND NOW WE ARE READY TO PLAY...
THE FICKLE FINGER OF FATE.
[laughter and applause]
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS.
Y'ALL KNOW THE RULES OF FOOTBALL, RIGHT?
all: YES.
- IT IS NOTHING LIKE THAT.
EACH OF YOU WILL STAND ON ONE OF THOSE FOUR PLATFORMS,
AND THE FICKLE FINGER OF FATE WILL START SPINNING,
AND IT CAN CHANGE DIRECTION AT ANY MOMENT.
SO YOU HAVE TO STAY ON YOUR PLATFORM.
WHEN THE FICKLE FINGER GOES PAST YOU,
YOU'RE GONNA JUMP UP,
BUT YOU HAVE TO LAND BACK ON YOUR PLATFORM.
'CAUSE THE FIRST TEAM TO HAVE SOMEONE FALL OFF THREE TIMES
IS OUT COMPLETELY.
AND WE'RE GONNA KEEP TRACK OF THE TOTAL NUMBER
OF FALLS PER TEAM ON THE MONITOR.
TAKE YOUR PLACES.
BRONCOS ON ORANGE, SEAHAWKS ON GREEN.
- OH, MY GOSH.
GOOD LUCK, YOU GUYS.
- GOOD LUCK, YOU GUYS.
[cheers and applause]
- OKAY, WE'RE GOOD?
READY, SET, GO.
- OH, MY GOSH.
- I'M KIDDING. THAT'S A FALSE START.
ALL RIGHT, READY?
- YES.
- GO.
[tense music]
- OH, MY GOSH.
[women screaming]
- ALL RIGHT, SO THAT'S ONE FALL FOR THIS TEAM OVER HERE.
- OH, MY GOSH.
OKAY, I GOT IT. I GOT IT.
- ALL RIGHT.
GO.
[women screaming]
OH.
THAT'S TWO FALLS, RIGHT?
THAT'S TWO FALLS.
ONE FALL EACH.
OKAY, ONLY THE FIRST FALL COUNTS.
ALL RIGHT, IT'S EVEN. LET'S GO.
- OKAY.
[women screaming]
- OH, NO.
ALL RIGHT, YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO FALL ONE MORE TIME.
- THIS IS HORRIBLE.
