The air was abuzz this morning as players began entering the room around 10:30 and were greeted with a black tarmac experience found here at Thunder Valley. The staff was in full flight mode complete with pilot��s outfits while Jeff Platt and Hayley Hochstetler put on an incredible TV performance while Tana Karn and Ben Erwin joined in the commentary. The entire room was truly a spectacle to behold as the "Final Boarding" promo video was aired and it was a perfect fit to have defending champ Tyler Patterson (who bagged 163,500 in Day 1a) announce ��Shuffle Up and Deal!��
