Press Your Luck #500b - Katie/Ramon/Greg

From Aug 26, 1985. Back To School Week day 1 but really is Day 2. Whammys are shown in the intros. Greg is a yell leader and Katie has a Whammy incantation when she goes to the board. The next episode is #501. Enjoy.

Katie, you were dancing in flames, but you pulled it off! Good game Ramon. You too Greg!

[@sha11235]

Now they show the Whammy when Rod mentions him. Love that.

[@TheYoungandtheRedeemed]

Katie later became a contestant on Sale of the Century in July 1988

I would've told Peter, "That was a cartoon character too. He was a penguin created by Walter Lantz, same guy who did Woody Woodpecker."

[@PittsburghPenguin]

Steve (in the intro) was a wide receiver for the Houston Oilers when he was PYL.

[@damienchance2622]

Katie: no wa-wa-wa-whammies. She sounds like toad from Mario kart 64.

[@finditandfixit2081]

Katie has a a lot of spaz and energy for women back than. Her looks is beyond the time

[@whammy3323]

The poem at the end of R1 is written by former PYL contestant Joanie from #412 Kirk/Jonie/Joanie

18:06 Katie's game.

[@sha11235]

Of course he has the most money, the other guy hasn't gone yet.

[@jasonbertalotto4296]

Victories has the sweetest sound!

[@JasonVaysberg]

Ramon should have passed when he took 2nd by $3 toward the end. If Katie whammied he’d win immediately.

[@sha11235]

He should've done something about the whammy with the yell.

[@AustinLaPlante]

Episode 501...

[@kissfanmac]

There is no 500B. Even tho the 500th episode wasn’t aired originally, they kept on with #501, which is this episode.

[@VahanNisanian]

I have an old GSN Schedule PDF that proves this is really #500. The 11-15-1985 is really #560, not #559.

[@michaelsshawn1604]

man katies fine wish i could go back in time to the 80s to date her.💏

[@damienchance2622]

Me too

[@sha11235]

Rod didn't say Congratulations!

[@horrorbro]

Poor Ramon He’s Out at 18:06

[@NinjaDragon22]

Poor Ramon

[@sha11235]

***** Whammy caught up with him after not getting him in the first round.

[@lady_victoriaaa]

Lol that's my dad.

[@bonniekeough244]

She's every game shows dream contestant.

[@allenmui5457]

18:06 - Ramon is out which means Katie did it with three whammies!

[@donnapodhurst6552]

everyone knows if you say no whammy then you will get whammy

[@kissfanmac]

There is no 500 A. 500B is 501 and he’s off by one on all the others after this one.

[@danbarker4857]

Chilly Willy? probably another best friend of Bill Mitchell's like Lotus Weinstock.

[@TheYoungandtheRedeemed]

Dan Barker Chilly Willy is a character from the Woody Woodpecker cartoons (he's a penguin, FYI)

[@kellyhoover3800]

I think it's cool that Greg has the same last name as me!
