Game Show fans?; I'm a former contestant of one

Back in 2000, I made it onto The Price Is Right on stage by winning a home gym. I got to play "SafeCrackers" for a truck and a BBQ grill. The safe combination was the same as the price of the grill, 9, 8 and 0. I was holding up 9 fingers and 300 people in the audience were screaming EIGHT! in my face, so unfortunately, popular opinion overcame my instincts and I lost. :(

I did get to spin the wheel and hit 90 cents and after I was tied, I won the spinoff and made it the showdown, where I had trips to Holland, Italy and Thailand. My bid was about $2500 below retail but my opponent was about $1200 below, so I decided to accept $1400 compensation instead of paying taxes for the gym.

Nevertheless, shaking hands with Bob and him acknowledging that I had my own "fan club" when only my sister came with me made it worth it. For whatever reason, I had some people cheering for me including some big black dude in the audience yelling "LUKE!" I told Bob that my sister was with me, "That doesn't sound like your sister, Luke!"

Here's some examples of "Unintelligent Design" on some of my fave game shows:

Worst Ten Chances Player Ever

Dumb Family Feud Family

Wheel Of Fortune: When Idiots Attack

Sh71, I'd be that dumb too if I had to do any kind of math on a game show, even if it's simple math. XD

But Bob Barker's reaction there was Priceless. I hope he does that on Raw when he guest hosts. :p
