(Barker's Final) Golden Road: If it's over 100K, it's got to be a motorhome. Any kind of loss on this one is painful. When we needed another 8 to get to the motorhome, a lot were upset about that. I went, "You don't do that! You don't do that! You don't do that!" It's just that I thought they don't use the same number twice. But, then again, we are playing for "the most expensive prize"; so you got to make it difficult to win.
The Punch-A-Bunch Punchboard: I was about to throw the very tinest of fits if Samira would go for just the corners like a good few. As soon as Bob saw the third slip, I had an inkling she got a least $5000. I just felt a little good that Bob mentioned Brian; brings back memories. Then the big $10,000 kinda made up for Golden Road (at least to me).
One Bid 3: It sounded like George had a good idea on the fridge. I was almost expecting bells after that.
Most Expensive: Hmm, I guess some celebrities have distinctive tastes in furniture, not that I have a problem with that. Even though dining groups like that can be costly, I went for the television anyway. I feel so stupid.
Showcase Showdown 1: You know some words are going to be said about George's post-$1,000 win..
The 15-second clip: The guy on the left has shades of Rich Fields in him--almost sounding just like him.
Squeeze Play: "Oh, come on! It can't be that easy! Take out the oh-so-obvious centered 0!"
Dice Game: It looked like Amy tossed some of the dice instead of rolling them. I guess those count as long as it goes over the line. The [3] and the [4] were the only rolls to watch for.
One Bid 6: Sonya's 750 just did not seem successful. I wanted her to bid higher than 950. I guess Daniel R. had the same successful bidding ambition as George.
Hi-Lo: Daniel R. was doing good, until he picked the Ziploc bags. What else could be high? Size matters. Since the drink mix was kinda large, it had to make a lot of drinks; so I went with that. We all expressed an upcoming failure in the end.
Showcases: Both bids were really good. When we all applauded George's bid, I was predicting either Amy overbidded, underbidded by so much, or possibly won them both. In my opinion, this also made up for the motorhome loss. I just had to watch it a few times to experience what it would be like to be in the studio when the DSW happened. Probably as big as Bob's entrances these days.
I feel good today.
