FGN: Just to let you know, all three of The Hub's weekly game shows will be all-new on Super Bowl night. Here are tonight's families on this program:

Red Team: Manaia (who loves to dance), Iyana (a sister who can do some crazy tongue tricks), Jen (a mom who likes to work out) & Shawn (dad/master mechanic)
Yellow Team: Kelsea (tap dancer), Lisa (a Yoga mom), Ken (dad/mechanic) & Bryce (a SCUBA diving brother)
TOP CASH PRIZE: $8K

No, It's Not: Both families are given six blue marked balloons w/ half of them being marked w/ incorrect answers to a given question. In tonight's case, the prompt is to avoid those U.S. states that are East of the Mississippi River. For each valid balloon, the team has to work together tapping it in the air (but no teammate can hit a balloon twice in a row; they all have to have one hand behind their backs) until it goes into their bin. The first team w/ two of the wrong answer balloons in their bin wins.

Wrong Answers: Alaska, California & Texas
WINNERS- RT
