Five Fun Facts about SPELLING BEE

[@DesmondShannon87]

GIVEN THE TAXES she definitely made the right choice!!!

[@pinedelgado4743]

I remember seeing one of those perfect games of SPELLING BEE. The gentleman who played it asked Bob Barker afterwards if he won two extra cars for that perfect game and Bob emphatically said "NO!" LOL!!!

1988 must have been a great year for solo games as both Pathfinder and Spelling Bee continue to be played to this day.

Spelling Bee Is My Third Favorite Pricing Game Of All Time.

[@TBONE_2004]

We can't forget that one contestant who went back to North Carolina and told everyone " _I got an A!_ "

[@heidimountain606]

There was one playing of Spelling Bee 🐝 where the electronic displays on the small prizes weren’t working and the model had to stand there with a paper price tag to reveal the correct prices on the small prizes (they were similar to the ones used in Shell Game at that time).

I love this game 2 this day

[@stevengolden9009]

This is also one of those almost "guaranteed win" games. You could miss all three small prize changes and still walk off with $2000

[@danielbracken2792]

Amy the contestant who played a perfect game called out one number and Bob picked another number. She wouldn't have had that outcome otherwise.

[@akampfer]

Yes, I would take a sure $15000

[@MrRight80]

Was VAN ever used when played for a Van? 2 weeks Super Saver. Another fun fact, if you guessed an amount exactly right, you automatically win all the prizes and can select 5 cards. You get 2 free cards and even if you had the word car on 1 card, but only had 2 cards, you still lost. 3 cards required.

[@heidimountain606]

I think they have used SUV before but not van. Not many car manufacturers are making minivans anymore. SUVs are more popular.

[@johnwiesner9590]

I probably would have also taken that $15,000 if faced with that decision.

[@theweysermanisback5205]

I remember the Spelling Bee moment where Robert’s friend, Brian, helped him out with a $24 guess, and he was right on the nose. Then, while Bob asked Brian some question, the camera cut to Brian standing up, while all the other audience members sat in their seats.

meaning 49 day champion if 24 gonna see the episode

[@jamesbonnen]

Yes. She made the right decision. In case she wins the showcase they can take the taxes out of her money winnings

[@MyGuyJustinH]

There was one more set change. They added how many Cs, how many As, how many Rs, & how many CAR cards there were on the board. Also, I can't wait until next week.

[@msxvideo]

In my head I saw that more as an "addition" than a "change" but I guess it is a change in the end, so it's edited out now.

[@laurakruk4692]

@@msxvideoHey! It looks like you “spelled” out the right way to ANSWER AMAZING video!

[@MyGuyJustinH]

​@ScapinoTV I agree. It is more like an addition to the game.

[@ricknibert6417]

The first time I saw this game...well, it was interrupted by a Special Report.

[@jamesgibson5818]

Hell no you should always play it out in that game that’s why they gave her a chance unless you get only two cards which rarely ever happens 2:31

[@mikeskumanick9538]

Another fun fact is in the early playing their was no car cards only c a r.

[@stevendice6572]

I know you're reviewing games in order of debut but can you mention the year the game debuted in your videos. Was Spelling Bee 1987 or 1988?

[@kyleboulanger170]

I can already tell the next game is "Super Ball".

[@chrisglazer5478]

Super Ball was already discussed. It is going to be Super Saver :)

[@meyerj75]

The next game would be the next "disaster".

[@jamesmoss3424]

Spelling Bee 🐝 is brilliant. 😀👍

[@tyvulpintaur2732]

One of the "perfect" wins actually included a mistake on Bob's part. The contestant picked card 26, but Bob thought she said 27, and gave her that card instead. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6TOfKObeq2GpK8
