TPiR/TJW connection?
« on: December 18, 2003, 08:27:31 PM »
I know this is nearly impossible, since the two shows are 20-something years apart, but does the $1,000,000 sign in the back of TPiR's audience look a lot like the one that was used in that $1 million Joker's Wild tournament GSN showed last year?

The million-dollar sign used on The Joker's Wild was neon. The TPIR $1M sign is white light bulbs.

Glad I wasn't the only one who was thinking about the similarities between the 2 signs. :-)

 Actually there is more than the 2 of you that thought they looked similar.  Everytime I see the signs, I am reminded of TJW.
