I guessed what the category for blue was, but wasn't familiar enough to work out what went in it.

Figured out the purples as I was trying to get the last blue (I knew Luxor, Excalibur and Encore).

I don't know anything about Vegas hotels. I think there is one called The Vallegio, but I couldn't name another. Luckily the other 3 categories were simple.

what @ greens
It's a tongue twister. I was taught it as a vocal warmup in high school theatre. Probably a little too obscure to be a green though.

I thought the trap was gonna be a trap, but then I saw what ended up being the greens and was more sure that that was the trap instead, so I went for the carnival rides first. Bruh.

I figured it was movies that start with The, but I dunno why I was so attached to including Theater in the group when I've never heard of a movie called The Theater.

What was the trap?
Chicken: wing, tender, popper, fritter.

Fritter felt just detached enough to not guess. If Nugget was there instead, I'd probably have fired off the guess.

I did see the trap but thought it was just appetizers in general and not chicken-specific. I didn't know poppers and fritters were generally chicken. Anyway, I figured it was probably a trap and when I started to see the other appendages I knew that's where wing went.

For blues I was thinking of heating water and on the wrong guess, guessed fritter instead of popper. I didn't know you could make popcorn with a kettle.

I was going for heating water as well, but when I couldn't see a fourth I saw popper and knew what the category was. Kettle corn. It's a thing and it's arguably better than traditional popcorn.
