Show producers asked Bargatze if he could find a way to help ensure nobody ran long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">His plan is to pledge a $100,000 personal donation to the Boys and Girls Club.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;That&#8217;s what the show is starting at,&#8221; Bargatze told Kimmel. &#8220;If someone goes over (their allotted 45 seconds), we take away $1,000 a second&#8230; But if you go under, we will put $1,000 back on. So you can give it back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">&#8216;Have you done the math?&#8217;<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Kimmel asked Bargatze if he had done the math to figure out exactly what this might cost him?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;It could get wild,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Everybody&#8217;s got to give their time up.
