Upon re-watching the clip, I believe she SHOULD have won the money.  Why?  Look when they switch from the 1st category to the 2nd ("Things Used on a Horse" to "Famous Beaches").  The 2nd trilon didn't spin around until a good second to second and a half after the first one.  I know that is picky, but she could have had that extra second for getting in the words "OF FLANNEL!" at the end.  i dunno......

[quote name=\'Mike Tennant\' date=\'Mar 21 2005, 11:42 AM\']This sort of makes sense for this particular show.  Otherwise, a contestant could stall for time by starting to say, for example, "Things That Are . . ." before the buzzer and then coming up with a way to finish it afterward.  I know it's a stretch, but I can see why Bob Stewart might have come up with such a rule.[/quote]

Emphasis on "Bob Stewart" in that last sentence? :)

They did it the other way on Osmond's Pyramid, and while it made some sense considering that they also required near-exact matches of the categories rather than keywords, it left a bad taste in my mouth.
