Millionaire players list
« on: August 23, 2011, 06:04:56 PM »
Hello all, I have tried to Google this, but with no luck. I'm trying to get together a listing of all the players in the U.S. version of Millionaire who have seen the $1 million question. I want to try to find their footage on YouTube, or else find a listing of the questions they had.

Here are the players I know about already...

$1 million winners
John Carpenter
Dan Blonsky
Joe Trela
Bob House
Kim Hunt
David Goodman
Kevin Olmstead
Bernie Cullen
Ed Toutant
Kevin Smith
Nancy Christie
Sam Murray

$500,000 winners
Michael Shutterly
David Fite
Rob Coughlin
Stephanie Girardi
Gary Gambino
Tom O'Brien
Ken Basin

Any help would be appreciated.

Ogi Ogas under $500K winners.

And technically, Ken Basin should be his own category.

Nancy's surname is Christy-with-a-Y.

Add the other 9 players who were in the Tournament of 10...they're a category all by themselves, since none actually made it far enough to see the $1M question the first time around.
Fun Fact To Make You Feel Old: Syndicated Jeopeardy has allowed champs to play until they lose longer than they've retired them after five days.

$500,000 winners on the daily version of Millionaire are: Armand Kachigian, Jeff Gross, Ogi Ogas, Lyn Payne. Winners of $500,000 on Super Millionaire are: Todd Kim, Scott Hoff, Jason Carter and Pat Headley. Tim Shields won $500,000 on the prime time version but his win was only seen in snips on Champions of Millionaire.

True.  Basin didn't even win $500K.  He only won $25K.

Robert Essig (hope I'm recalling the name correctly) won $1 million on Super Millionaire (walked away after seeing the $2.5 million question).

You are, good sir.

Bryce, don't know if this is exactly what you wanted but here's a video I found earlier today of all the Millionaire winning questions plus one. You figure out what the "plus one" is. :)

It won't be complete; at least one player's $1 million question was not broadcast.
