That episode is memorable to me, not for the boat won in Golden Road (oops, Lincoln Continental!), but for the other prize offered somewhere on the show - a refrigerator with built-in AM/FM radio and tape deck. It's the ONLY place I've seen one of those.

70s LMAD offered the fridge prize once or twice.

Aaron was most likely in his playpen. :)  As far as the daytime version goes, it went off a little over 3 months before my 2nd birthday. :)

Wow...I've been banned from that forum for two weeks.  I guess the people there don't like reality.

Petty behavior on an Internet message board? Now your crazy talk has gone too far.

The first time Golden Road was played was on the premiere of the hour-long shows, correct?

No, it actually premiered on a half-hr ep earlier that yr, and unlike future playings, it was the 3rd game that day.

Chuck, can you back that up?  I remember reading that claim on ATGS ages ago, and I've been puzzling over it for years.

I also saw it on either ATGS or here...haven't seen the ep in question, so to avoid looking like someone's ill-informed "bowling buddy", take it w/a grain of salt...it is possible, though.

[quote name=\'Steve Gavazzi\' date=\'Feb 13 2005, 06:36 PM\']Would somebody please explain to me why I thought I might accomplish something by posting in that thread?

Hard for me to explain why you thought you would accomplish something there too....

Maybe it's because you went over there and started correcting everybody in a snarky, condescending tone in your post. To a bunch of wrestling fans, no less! It's amazing: Zach Horan can do it and not sound stuck-up. You try to do it and you end up looking like some holier-than-thou expert.

It's not a good idea to talk down to your audience. They really resent that.

If I hadn't found the contents of the thread to be completely idiotic, I probably would have been a little less snarky about the whole thing.

And you do realize that you just essentially said that you and the board's other occupants are dumber than the rest of the population, don't you?

EDIT:  And if I'm getting a different reaction than Zach, I must be doing something right.

But why participate in a thread or a board that's idiotic?

Why not just ignore them completely?  (I don't mean use an ignore feature, just pretend they don't exist)
Enjoy lots and lots of backstage TPIR photos and other fun stuff here. And yes, I did park in Syd Vinnedge's parking spot at CBS

If you're by nature a message-board kinda guy, I think it's very difficult to see outrageously wrong information on a board and not want to try and correct it.  Steve didn't realize how idiotic they were until he corrected the information and caught hell for it.

Further, I think Steve agrees with you -- now -- and I doubt he has any more plans to bother with them any more.  If they prefer to not know what they're talking about, who are we to try and educate them?
