Author Topic: 10th Anniversary Punch-A-Bunch Moment (Read 6304 times)

10 years ago on the Friday before Super Bowl XXX weekend, though NBC had the big game, CBS had a super performance.

A gentleman by the name of Bryan (who looked a little like Darius Rucker of Hootie & The Blowfish) from Kentucky, won his way up on stage & played (cue harp music) Punch-A-Bunch!

He won 3/4 prizes, earning him 3 punches. On the first punch, Bob discussed that he & his wife traveled from Kentucky & that it costed a lot of money to travel. He then informs him that the investment was worth it for $5,000!

The audience cheered, but Bryan shook his head NO! Bob & the audience were all over him, they even shouted "KEEP IT!" Bryan said, "I'm being attacked by vicious dogs, I'm going for it."

The audience groaned & Janice quipped, "He's a gambling man." So with a heavy heart, Bob gets out the next slip of paper. Then he whines, "Can we change the rules to this game. He gave up $5,000 & ended up with...(yelling) $10,000!"

(Cue Curly siren)

One of the most memorable moments in Punch-A-Bunch history, next to Lilia (who in 2000, also won $10K + $11K on the wheel for a BI-SLAM!).

So you're back?...I knew Invision was a drug. Not only is it addictive, but it makes you see ridiculous things.

(light bulb)
I think I just made a new slogan.

No. The contestant said: "If you're scared, buy a dog".

Sometimes when I come to this forum, I'm amused. Sometimes, I'm educated. And sometimes, I become very frightened... This is one of those times.

I stand corrected. Didn't hear the exact quote from Bryan, thanks Randy.

Perhaps there should be a rule. If you feel you must announce that you are leaving, you better mean it because you won't be allowed back.

Or, at the very minimum, some kind of severe public humiliation. Though, I'm not sure if that would have any effect, considering that Witch has pretty much been enduring that since Day One, and he's either too dense to get it or gets off on it and keeps coming back for more.

Wait a minute. I don't think that's going to fix it.
