And what was up with Jamal and Tyler making the same bid ($24,000)? What is this, the Halloween special from 2009?! Either way, that led to a DOB, as I know what was gonna happen from the last few seconds of the promo.I doubt if that promo proved anything. I thought those last few seconds were for the promo only.
I doubt if that promo proved anything. I thought those last few seconds were for the promo only.Well, from seeing Drew, the models, and George standing together like that, I just knew that there was gonna be a DOB.
I don't know what it is about these college shows, but they just never seem to go all that well no matter how they're set up, whether it be through contestants making weird decisions or just plain old bad luck.Definitely bad luck. That's all it is.
Well, from seeing Drew, the models, and George standing together like that, I had a gut feeling that there was gonna be a DOB.I didn't think so. I figured it'd be promo-exclusive.
Bargain, IMO, really should have been won (Hawaii, even being the more expensive price, I knew right away was a lot more than $4K), but I'm wondering if Drew hamming up the 4N vs. 6N swayed Tyler's decision a bit.I doubt that.
Adam: I'm just a stickler for these things, but Jamal is from Washington State University, not Washington University.
And I really need to brush up on my Greek symbols and letters. All I knew on there was pi.
Changed accordingly. However, you only saw Washington University on the sweater from my view so for all I knew he could've being wearing a Washington University in St. Louis sweater.
And what was up with Jamal and Tyler making the same bid ($24,000)? What is this, the Halloween special from 2009?!What's wrong with making the same bid on the showcase? With the Halloween Showcase from 2009, their bids were very cheap, but that wasn't the case this time.

I don't know what it is about these college shows, but they just never seem to go all that well no matter how they're set up, whether it be through contestants making weird decisions or just plain old bad luck. That scanner in Punch A Bunch was probably the hardest SP we've seen in there in 2 years, and I think they did in fact want it to be missed, but the cooler should have been gotten. I suppose a rare setting up for 3 in a budget situation is OK. I appreciate how it is continuing to be less predictable what will be hard - L7 for an expensive car left relatively open, but C/O for a cheap prize very hard. It makes the show more watchable. Unfortunately the thing I will remember this show most for is the crowdsurfing come on down - I wonder if they knew that was going to happen or not but it just looked dumb :)When it comes to the students making weird choices or just bad luck, I think it's a little of column A and a little of column B.
Oh, the showcases were cheap but I don't think they necessarily wanted a DOB either. Blah.
