You've frozen through the winter...
You've sneezes through the spring... Now it's batter up for some Big

ladies... and 12 brainy dudes... aka a good night at the Alexander
house... are competing for $50,000 and the title of Wipeout Champion.

THE WIPEOUT ZONE
It's the moment you've been waiting for.
Only one thing stands between our players and $50,000... A BRAND NEW
WIPEOUT ZONE!
- The Towering Flume of Doom
- The Iron Mazen
- The Axle of Evil
- The Great Wall of Fall
There's a check in the amount of $50,000
American cash money waiting for the person with the fastest time.
First up, Country Nerd Kevin Jeffreys.
Nerd away with 1000 gallons of water greasing the skids, launched a
country mile into the Zone. He had a great entry into the Iron Mazen,
not a great exit, though. Not a great move on the Axle of Evil. Great
landing for the second time. Now for the Great Wall of Fall. He ends
with a time of 11:34.
Next up, the Home Scholar Christian
Cannon. He chews up the clock with a crazy pace arriving at the Axle of
Evil... and hangs on for one ride. He's killing it going into the Great
Wall of Fall. His final time... 3:30!
That's going to be the time for Jocelyn
to try and beat, representing for hotties everywhere. Confusion sets in
in the Iron Mazen. She does it with time to spare. She's going to have
30 seconds to beat the Great Wall of Fall. Can she do it? She can't
afford to wipeout now... She doesn't want to lose to a nerd... 15
second... 10.. five... four.. Wipeout. It's over, and THE HOME SCHOLAR
IS TAKING MONEY HOME! GIVE IT TO CHRISTIAN COLLINS, PUTTING IT DOWN FOR
NERDS EVERYWHERE!
More wipeouts next time and all summer
long. Be here for that. Until then, good night... and big balls.
