500: easy

1,000: "teary-eyed" gives this one away

2,000: easy

3,000: A is the only Amish ritual of those four

5,000: easy

7,000: I know Steve Martin plays the banjo, so I go with B

10K: Kobe's the only beef of those four I've heard regarded as "internationally-prized," so I go with C.

20K: Amman is the capital of Jordan.

So I'd be facing 30K with all three lifelines intact.

Philadelphia was one of the cities of the Decapolis and should not be confused with the Philadelphia mentioned in the Book of Revelation as one of the recipients of the 7 letters.
