Break the Bank returns to 987 The Big Boy this November with cash prizes

SIDNEY, Neb. - One of 987 The Big Boy’s most popular contests is back for a fourth year as Break the Bank returns this November, giving listeners a chance to win cash prizes from Whitetail Properties Real Estate.

Listeners can tune in every Wednesday in November at 9:40 a.m., 12:40 p.m. and 3:40 p.m. to collect three top-secret combination numbers. At 4:40 p.m., the ninth caller will give all three numbers back in the correct order to win $98.70.
