Cash Cab

Hosted by Pam.

Come along and step into my Cash Cab. Where it goes no one knows. Once your travel begins, there will be no stopping along the way, unless directed by the quiz host, a police officer, stop sign, traffic light or other legal means of diverting traffic. There will also be no detours in this ride. Each wrong answer will earn your team a strike but never fear, I won’t put you out on route to your destination. If your team can answer enough questions along the way, you will earn lots of points. The ride may get bumpy but you must stay in this cab until the very end of your ride. So, come along and pile into this cab for a wacky and bumpy race to the very end of this game. There will be lots of twists and turns to the exciting end.

How the game is played:

1. Each team will begin with a sum of 100 points.
2. There will be questions worth 50, 100 and 200 points in this game. The higher the points, the harder the questions are.
3. You will have four life lines along the way. They are:
   • a. ask the other team,
   • b. ask one particular person on the other team,
   • c. ask me for a correct answer (who knows if i will give you the right one), and
   • d spend 20 points and buy the correct answer.
4. Each team will be given a strike after any wrong anser.
5. After 3 strikes, each wrong answer given will reduce your score by 20 points.
6. Your team can pass without a penalty.
7. After play, there will be a bonus round called the Red Light challenge.

Red Light Challenge:

1. This challange consists of five questions.
2. The questions will start at 50 points and double in value after each question.
3. You can earn up to 800 points in this portion of the game.
4. The questions will get harder as the value of the question increases.
5. Each team can stop at anytime they feel they cannot answer the question given in this portion of the game.

I look forward to giving you a ride in my cash Cab. See you then.
