I recently discovered Split-Second, a game show from the 1970s in which three competitors vie for a chance to answer three questions related to one another. The first player to buzz-in chooses any of the three questions to answer, the second player gets next choice, and the slowest buzzer has to answer the last one. If all three answer correctly, they each get $5, two correct answers nets them each $10 and if only one answers right, he or she earns $25.
Let's play a round, so you can get the feel for the game.
Take a look at the board:
Each of these things is a civil right ensured by the Bill of Rights amended to the U.S. Constitution. Tell me what number amendment guarantees each right.
Remember: answer only one of the questions, and don't look it up. Your chance to buzz in is now.
