Hatten Vs. McCarthy(s)

Who would win this one? They are the only ones who won the full $120K on Cullen's Blockbusters, and conveniently enough, it was indeed a family pair and a single player. So, who comes out on top? (BTW, I'm surprised that GT didn't think of some kind of Championship series for these three perfect score players)

I've wondered about a tournament for Blockbusters '80, but the problem is that either the solo player or family pair can win; the chance that one solo player and one team will win in the brackets (or that they'll evenly win) aren't that great.

Besides that, by the time John rolled up his 20th win, the show was almost done taping.  Too bad, a best-of-seven or something would have been neat.

Well, a bracket tournament would help answer the " 2 heads are better than one" theory, but I would have liked to see a Hatten-McCarthy 7 game championship match.
Besides, were there any other really big winners other than Leland Yung(?) and the two $120k winners?
