[quote name=\'MarkBarrett\' date=\'Jan 21 2004, 06:36 PM\'] Joe Lasher was the guy with the wife that had to be around 40 competing with the college students. Why the show allowed an older player to go against the students is a good question and I don't have an answer for that advantage for Joe. David Rogers was the younger rocker type with the deep voice. Yeah, there was an older lady with a sassy attitude named Susan Wolf(e) I think. Some guy I think was from Hawaii won a bunch of games. His name may have been Roy or Ray Winston? [/quote]
Joe Lasher's win was in Summer 1984 IIRC. Scrabble at the time also had a College week or two, and Mark Dalberman(sp?) was the Sprint champion who carried over to the regular shows, and ended up being the second 10 time champ in the show's then two-month history IIRC.
