Yesterday was impressive too because the second contestant was very good, just made a big mistake.

It's been awhile since we had a five day champion. Wasn't Matt the last (with 13 wins)?

Did you know that John McCain was a one day winner back in 1965 when Fleming was host.

It was a morning game show back then, and I was mostly in school. I saw a bit of it in the summer, but I was religiously shoved out the door right after breakfast and not allowed back inside until lunch.
