Wow so much money for 1984

[@annaamoroso185]

I love it so much

[@DBR00]

I always liked when they introduced the contestants, Wink had some chit chat with them before they turned up the mic.

5:53... from that fabulous trumpet blast, the *Family Feud* theme.

[@SpideyVids]

The questions were much more difficult in the 1950s version of this show.

[@ddmck1972]

And the contestants probably already knew the answers.

[@BenJabituya]

Kit Salisbury also appeared on "Jeopardy!" back in 1999. He won $12,200 on "Jeopardy!" after playing 2 games.

[@coronaweeks4577]

Wonder how he is these days? Gotta be up there in age since this is 40 years ago

11:17 My dream girlfriend like Rocsi (former 106th and Park host) and i lip lock while Kit wins!

[@phillipdeck5456]

He became 10th biggest winner of all time, i wonder who is the 9th biggest winner?

[@morgan8757]

I THINK IT WAS ALAN LICHTMANN

[@marctaylor3114]

Wasn't it Thom Mckee?

[@Hawqis1]

1st was Thom McKee, 2nd (at this time) Wilbur Hicks, 3rd Brian Donovan, 4th Gary Meters, 5th Mark Leinwand, 6th Pieter DeVries, 7th John Welsh, 8th Doc Fass, 9th Allen Lichtman, and 10th Kit Salisbury

[@christybradfield7812]

@@Hawqis1 Thanks, but could you edit your answer with the dollar and car totals?

[@johnnyballenatl]

@@Hawqis1But in the end, Salisbury would become the second biggest winner in Tic Tac Dough history ($199,750, just $250 shy of $200,000).

[@danbarker4857]

Is he the last champion to win over $100,000 during Wink's run?

[@digiblader1]

Yes. No contestant broke the $100K mark to my knowledge the rest of Wink's final season - and definitely not during Caldwell's short run.

[@christianwootton100]

We want a virtual Kit vs Thom best of five. 👏

[@schmolik1]

I wouldn't have taken the jump in for the win. If Nell got the jump in not only does Kit not win but Nell gets the block. I would've taken Potluck Pix in box #4. Get that and you have two chances to win and Nell can only block one on the next turn and can't win this game. Take a Letter in #7 is worthless as it doesn't give you an extra chance to win. One Word Names in #6 would give you an extra chance to win but if Nell gets #1 and #4 she can win with #7.

[@drewconway7135]

Well, *if* he had taken Potluck Pix and *if* he had answered correctly, and *if* Nell had been able to block one of the boxes on her next turn, the shuffle might have put the Jump-In in the other box that would have given him the win, in which case he’d be in the same boat, if not slightly worse off. What’s that saying about a bird in the hand?

I did not like when they had three special categories In one game

[@gtb2009b]

This game is so easy wish it was still going on I think they just gave money to Kit.

[@neeneec5394]

gtb2009b i was a kid when it aired and I knew most answers. I think they try to appeal to all ages on this show.

[@Rlotpir1972]

SO easy a 6-year old can answer. Same thing happening with "The Joker's Wild".

Tom Bergeron just did a pilot for a new version for 2022 or 2023.

@@artkurtz9238 Oh god help us. I can’t stand him. He’s so simpering, and laughs like a donkey at things that aren’t even funny. Total cringe.

[@Crimefighter]

While Kit's run is impressive, Thom McKee held the record with 43 wins and $312K in winnings.

[@kristindell267]

You can't forget to mention Erik Kraepelien, he defeated Thom McKee and went on to have an impressive run himself!

[@johnnyballenatl]

@@kristindell267 But it was McKee who held on to the all-time winnings record until Michael Shutterly eclipsed him ($500,000 on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 1999 was good enough).

[@mrfloxin]

I would love to tell Nell Scott for thanking her for her services in United States Air Force Base! I would love to salute you for doing a job well done. I love to say is "USA All The Way!"

[@DBR00]

I don’t really care for the bonus category. If the champion gets the first 2 right, he or she can immediately win the game with one more correct answer and the challenger won’t even get a chance to play.

[@drewconway7135]

If the champ gets two right, the challenger still has a chance to block with their next turn

[@sha11235]

If the challenger didn't get a chance to play because of this, he or she would be invited back to play again after the Bonus Game.

[@schmolik1]

You can argue Nell's first question was also a 2 parter and it was unfair because not only did she not get the center but didn't get the extra time (of course it was an easy question and she got it).

[@neeneec5394]

huh??????

[@gtb2009b]

Maybe kit will get his front teeth fixed with that money

[@drewconway7135]

I wonder if he ever came out of the closet

Lets beat the dragon together isnt that funny
