I am curious, since there is so much to collect beyond the actual games themselves.  What are your favorite piece of memorabilia that are not a game itself?

Well, I have five TPIR t-shirts (two say TPIR Live on them). I also have a TPIR travel mug, which has the TPIR Carey era logo on one side, and the Plinko logo on the other. I bought all that stuff at TPIR Live in Las Vegas. When I wear one of my TPIR shirts, it's always an attention getter, haha. But probably the craziest things I have is something I got at a Wheel audition here in Phoenix two weekends ago. It's a Pat Sajak talking keychain! You hit a button and it says things like "Pick up that free spin!", and "Give that wheel a spin!"

I've got three jackets -- denim jackets from Wheel of Fortune and Hollywood Squares and a crew jacket ("Bill") from LMaD '90.  I also have a To Tell the Truth 2000 t-shirt and a Paranoia cap.

And a ton of 8" x 10" glossies from various shows.

Now, what I'd like to get is a prop or a set piece -- not likely to happen, but ya never know...

A few square yards of orange shag carpeting and you've got most of the Match Game '7x set.

My 3 favorites...

1.  A scroll from Show Me the Money.  The adhesive used on the scroll doesn't adhere quite well.
2.  A 35mm art card slide for Hit Man.
3.  A very early art card for Wheel of Fortune.

I have a Drew Dollar from my wife's appearance on the Price Is Right on earth day last week.  Surprisingly, it is a very weighty coin...

I've got a replica of the WOF $1,000 space, along with a totebag, ink pen, keychain and shirt with the logo. I've got my interview card from Jeopardy! and my picture with Alex in a glass Jeopardy! frame. Also included is a large photo of all contestants from that week in a regular wooden frame where I, of course, positioned myself next to Alex. I've got no official remnants from my MDP
appearance.
I have a GSN top, ink pen, buzzer, dice and post-it-note cube and four autographed photos of 4/6 of the PlayMania hosts, along with Pat & Vanna and Betty White.
I've also got my transparent QuizBusters name "plate". ;)

I would think the paycheck would be quite the strong remnant. ;)

I can't recall if I have much that is off the beaten path.  There is a deck of "Pay Cards" playing cards and a TPiR 25th Anniversary Denim jacket.

I'm sorry if sounds ridiculously obvious... but is Drew's face/profile actually on the coin?
