This is the first time watching these old Scrabble episodes that I had both Bonus Sprint words off the clue. ...god they need to bring this show back, exactly as it was (just with more money to catch up with 2023 prizing.)
Yes, Hang was the Sprint winner on the June 30, 1989 Teen Week episode with the $6000 Bonus Sprint win. So that Teen Week had 2 Bonus Sprint wins, one for $11,000 and the other for $6000 on that Friday episode.
Any time there is a reference to a foreign country in any context, I always brace myself for what goofy geopolitical Hott Take Chuck is about to offer. @20:30 Chuck delivers. 🙃

I had both bonus sprint words off the clue on the finale
Thank you Chad. You are the best! I love that you taking your time to post these. 😊
Ohhhhh! My man Hang was another great Scrabble '89 champ.
Even for teen week, those sprint words were deceptively tough.
15:50: The parting gift is a new one. I really like the variety.
Start of teen week with a champion.... They invite him back from the last one or something?
