selected prizes for the first three questions. For the fourth question, Pickett presented eight sealed envelopes containing the names of different grand prizes, which included cars, a boat, a fur coat, and vacations. After choosing an envelope, the contestant could elect to risk what he/she had already won in order to win the bonus prize by opening the envelope and revealing the grand prize, or return the envelope and select a fourth prize from the board without having to answer an additional question. Any contestant who won the grand prize retired from the show. If a contestant won five consecutive days, he/she was automatically awarded the grand prize regardless of the outcome of the bonus round. In some cases, Anderson would participate as the Star of the Day, during which Edgar would host the bonus round. In other cases, during celebrity shows with country music stars, the round was reversed, and the stars would guess what the former contestants responded to various questions. The fans involved won prizes based on how well the star had done in the round. Beginning in 1987, a variety of different stars (which included then-current country stars, country music legends, country-oriented comedians and stars from popular Nashville Network shows) played the bonus round, and Anderson would tell the contestant the star's name to help him or her decide whether to continue or stop. For at least the first two seasons, the show had a celebrity tournament with country stars playing. The show donated a cash prize to charity on each celeb's behalf. The winner of the maingame played the bonus and the prizes went to a civilian, in some cases a former contestant. The winners of the first three games came back on day four for the finals.
