I just watched a rerun of this episode on Buzzr and saw the black silhouette of a crew person walk behind Peter somewhere toward the end of the episode but weirdly can't find it in this video... and it was definitely in this episode. Hmmmmm.
Quite a few. Obviously, the contestants who were on the older side when coming on this game are no longer with us. Mae (the winner here) died in 2008 at age 90. JC (the one on the intro of this game who looks likes he’s ready to have a panic attack after his Whammy) died a few years ago. The woman who in the intros who says “Big Bucks, Michelle” died in 2015. Dom (from the episode where all three contestants came back with zero dollars) died last year. Of course, Michael Larson died too.
Am I the only one who noticed they used The UFO Whammy, Michael Jackson Whammy and the Dollar Bill Whammy twice?
Mae is so lovely and cute :)
Mae was really lucky. She almost passed at the wrong time.
You also have to take into account how she had to pass harris to win. Her and juilo both had three whammies, so it was a very high pressure situation
Mea is a savage.
doesn't even say stop

There’s a few episodes where one can catch that if you’re aware of it. A few episodes prior the same thingy happened.
I found it at 18:20.
Mae wins and I'm watching this in MAY of 2017 !!!
The next time the original Double Your Money square was hit was some 435 episodes later.
And it was in #2 where it was hit.
Vahan Nisanian Weird that DY$$ didn't have a spin in 1985. That would have been like December 1985? Right after the third HPS.
Julio was well on his way to baldness even back then. Also, what is the deal with Harris’ weird eye movements? Go Mae go
Julio should have passed those 4 spins in round 1
You now, the mirror did say you are orginally.
8:49 - 9:03 --- and that's why you shouldn't hit the button that fast.
The second whammy created a Michael Jackson concert worth $0
Are any of the contestants that were on Press Your Luck still alive today?
This show ain't that old, LOL. I'm sure 85-95 % of them still are.

Of course, although sadly fewer and fewer.
