WADSWORTH – WCTV now has the ability to broadcast live shows and Roger Polk and Tom Stugmyer are using this opportunity to give viewers a chance to win “millions… thousands… hundreds… and even less!”
Starting Feb. 21 there will be live shows on Channel 17 every Tuesday night from 6 to 7 p.m. through May 9 – 12 episodes total. Viewers can call in during these live shows and play Wadsworthopoly against the show’s hosts for a chance to win cash. Polk and Stugmyer have purchased $1, $2, $5 and $10 Monopoly scratch-off tickets. During certain points of the show or during the game the hosts will scratch off one of the tickets and the caller will receive 50 percent of whatever the winnings are.
“Any time someone calls into the live show we will scratch off a $1 ticket just for calling in,” Polk said. “You don’t need a Wadsworthopoly board of your own to play the game, but you will have more chances to win if you do.”
A caller who doesn’t have a Wadsworthopoly board at home will get two rolls of the dice and a person with a Wadsworthopoly board will get four rolls of the dice. Also callers with boards who roll a collective five will have a chance to win from a $5 scratch off ticket. If they roll a collective 10 they will have the opportunity to win off a $10 scratch off ticket.
“To verify if they have a board or not we will ask them a question they won’t know unless they have a board,” Stugmyer said.
Anyone who wants to purchase a Wadsworthopoly game can buy one for $10 at Wadsworth Community Radio, WCTV or Thurber’s Jewelers. These games were originally $25.
“Get your game early and get it laid out,” Polk suggested. “This is something fun you and your kids can do through the cold winter and the wet spring.”
Polk explained that all of the callers are playing collectively as one player and the TV hosts are playing as one player.
“This is a continual game so when our hour is up after the first show we will pick up right where we left off when we start the second show,” he said. “If someone wins before the series is over we can just start a new game.”
Stugmyer, who is a city councilman, will be a co-host during some of the shows, but will have to miss some episodes to attend council meetings.
“That’s why we are going to have some surprise guests come in and make things interesting,” Polk said. “Maybe they will take on the role of the banker or something.”
