The goofy thing is, though, he goes over the rules before they swing the board around.

You sure about that? Seems to me the board swings around, then he tells the contestants "we'll play until we hear our 'time's up' signal yadda yadda yadda."
I'll check out my tape of last night's proceedings when I get home tonight (it'll be late--I have theatre tix). If I'm wrong, I'll humbly defer.

We're both right. Narz does describe the rules before bringing on the board, but then after the board is unlit he goes into the "we'll play until we hear our 'time's up' signal yadda yadda yadda" spiel.
So perhaps it would have been better served to bring on the board, have Jack fully explain the rules and then mention the "time's up" signal and so forth, then relight the board and have the contestants have at it.
I'll warm up the DeLorean.
