@Quartzquiz They would have buzzed you for annual, just saying.

THINGS YOU DO EVERY YEAR: Income Tax! That was the very first thing that popped in my head! After that: Annual physical.

That was tough there like any other winner's circle loss. Sometimes after going through something so intense like the BIG TIE BREAKER it's hard to relax and than go to the big money round. Nipsey tried his best but sometimes fatigue can does cause you to do crazy things. Things are getting really intense here and I think we pretty much figuritively have had two winner's circle rounds when you really think about it.

Tough middle tier!

THINGS YOU DO EVERY YEAR: Birthday Celebrations, Wedding Anniversaries, 4th of July Fireworks, Halloween Parties, Trick or Treating, Thanksgiving Dinners

THINGS THAT ARE SERVED: Restaurant appetizers, alcoholic drinks, the main dish, tennis balls, a prison sentence, jury duty

I think he would have been OK with "go on vacation" in the 80s, despite the prepositional phrase, since it does fit the category without being too descriptive. If he said something like "go on vacation in June," then I think he'd get the buzz.

If Nipsey said "Go On Vacation" in the 80s versions, he might have been buzzed sooner. Still, a tough break for him as the middle two categories were tough.
