The game is simple: Let’s Ask America polls America about fun and irreverent topics to find out what people are thinking. Then, all the contestants have to do is correctly predict the answer.

When contestants are tied, they take part in a “Dash for Cash,” which will include a physical challenge. In the final round, the last remaining contestant can wager all or part of their winnings on the "final question of the day." Players who choose to wager all of their money can win up to five times the amount of his or her earnings, for a possible $50,000.
