This is one of my personal favorite episodes. I watched this one a lot when I was young, and I was apt enough to put this one up last night. Thanks for sharing.

I'm actually a bit curious now about one of the backdrops in the episode, specifically the one used in Squeeze Play. How long did the Diner backdrop last, and what kind of prize was it usually used for, aside motorcycles?

And I'm very certain that is still the closest Magic # win in history.

I am reasonably certain that at least one player set the display to the price of one of the prizes, which is still considered a win.
The above is my opinion and mine alone.

To answer your questions: yes, I am a guy and yes, I have a face. (I also have the occasional spurt of weirdness.)

Yes, back in Season 37, on October 22, 2008.

Ah, I wasn't aware of that playing. The closest win record from this episode might've still remained until the 10/22/2008 win, though.
