That was a major garf on Jill's part, and I knew it the instant I read that bid of $25,500 on a showcase with a LINCOLN in it.

And when Jill got the $10,000 on the bonus spin, only the clangers went off for this win. Seemed like during this timeframe from Season 20-22, the sound effects person could play the regular dings, clangs, clangs/whoops, with only one of these being sounded, and/or combinations of them all.
