Other than the $112,230 given on the Anderson version in 2002, what is the biggest total in the history of the show?

For non-tournament winnings, I think there was a $60K+ on FF Challenge on CBS in 1992-93. Syndie Combs TofC winners surpassed that, the tournament that aired on GSN a few weeks ago had a $60K jackpot won by the family, and they ended up with over $80K. The Syndie Combs non-tourney record is $59,750 by the Huffman family in 1993, who won eight shows. The Dawson ABC record is $33,167 set near the end of the show's run. The highest non-tourney win in the ANderson/Karn era is $61K and change set last season.

Actually, I believe the $61,000+ Karn era total was during Karn's first season.

There was an undefeated family with three Fast Money wins from last season rerunning on PAX within the last few months. Which of those had the higher total I don't recall.

How much did the Streeters rack up? It was a black family that appeared in late-2002. I remember loving their energy, and know they won Fast Money at least twice.

They won over $40K, I do believe.

I think most of us probably figured that out when we read, "and I know they won Fast Money at least twice."

According to this ep. guide, they did actually win a hair over $40K, and it was January 03.

Adam Kliest e-mailed me the info, and to answer the earlier question, the $61K was early in the 2002 season.
