I love the camera man's logic during the round 2 question time. Jo: normal shot, Bruce: normal shot, Paige: EXTREME CLOSE UP!! :D Good job camera man!

13:25 Jo is conducting to the whammy playing the piano

[@zachhoran]

The WHeel of Fortune paperback book that came out circa Summer 1987 had the contestant hotline number for other game shows mentioned in it, including PYL nearly a year after it ended.

The $700 slide in round #2 wasn't shown again after February 27, 1984 - until it returned on June 16, 1986, by replacing $500 + One Spin.

[@sirharry13]

That 500+spin getting changed to $700 kind of screwed Bruce on that final spin

[@damienchance2622]

@12:40 Wow.... that's the first the audience rhythm clapping when Elvis Whammy came out

[@bluebear1985]

According to the article about Elway on Wikipedia, it does mention he is currently married to a former Raiders cheerleader, but it says her name was Paige Green. It is a possibility though.

Jo is Out At 15:30

[@ericsiegel2401]

On the bright side, Jo leaves with $29,704.

[@colinnesmithgaming8042]

The champ is out

[@markheying2830]

@@colinnesmithgaming8042 And on a Boat as well.

[@johnnysama]

It is true. I have read news articles that back us up on that. :D

[@TruthBombDropper85]

Jo's drunk as shit lol

[@xavierandrews5774]

I Love jo she's funny

[@L.LoudisThemanwiththeplan]

15:30 Jo is history.

[@LVSignChick]

Jo, on her third Whammy, looks like Aunt Esther about to hit Fred Sanford...just an observation... Also, for as close to the end this was, to have the Be A Contestant address up tells me they were still planning on staying....

[@oboh-nc9os]

Terrie Neilson Yup. When they taped the finale, they did not know it was going to be the finale, which explains the rather unceremonious ending.

[@MBK1997]

I knew that and want to try and do some careful editing with the clips from the VH1 I love the 80s: 3D (1983) with this copy.

[@VahanNisanian]

Barry, you may remember seeing this episode in VH1's "I Love the 80's 3D: 1983", in a segment on PYL. It also looked and sounded much better there. Perhaps it was an original master copy that Fremantle provided to VH1.

[@bkizer99]

She did indeed marry John Elway. Still looks good even 25+ years later.

[@markheying2830]

As far as I remember, the next episode was where the N in SPINS fell in front of Paige.

[@digiblader1]

Shortest lived-board in the history of the series--as MAJOR changes are made (not good ones) after this episode.. say goodbye to a lot of $2000, $2500 moved to the same square as Big Bucks, and $1500+One Spin... as the board is chopped heavily in value.

[@sirharry13]

Pick a corner got really mucky when $500+spin got replaced with $700

[@frankie2jersey582]

Is it me or does Rod sound a little different?

[@bmhedgehog2]

didn't jo come back later on due to the mistake that lamb is a baby sheep?

[@somerandomgameranimator4481]

bmhedgehog2 possibly

[@wschmrdr]

RIP $1500 and a spin

[@jamesmcclelland1414]

Not until the next episode which was June 17, 1986.

[@ultmswag3170]

7:35 $10.

[@leegilley9268]

I don't know if it's true, but I heard Paige ended up marrying John Elway.

[@damienchance2622]

Whaaaaat?????
