Press Your Luck

[@CeramicDalmatian]

So, just a heads up: I've got the version of this with original commercials, and there's an ad for My Little Pony: The Movie, "Opening Today". Film premiered June 20, 1986.

[@damienchance2622]

Wow... I couldn't believe that Donna called out Double Your $$ on square #15... and she did hit it... The same thing happened to Karen Martin from PYL 1984 episode when she hits the same square #15 on the pool table when she called it!!!!!

[@alanboone1948]

Been wondering throughout the years what that ugly whammy looked like up close and personal.

[@SyncopateTheShot]

Robert thought he was on Card Sharks when he fully introduced himself. 😁

[@FLSharky]

I think this was second to only the Nina Jo - Andrew game as the closest deficit in PYL history. Poor Donna is thinking "I ran through 5 spins with three Whammies only to lose by under $100"

[@zackywarner9705]

11:25 THERE IT IS!!! THERE HE IS there's the ugly whammy!

[@wolfgang1097]

Imagine if there was a Whammy pose where he is mooning the players.

[@juan833blue]

That is the Whammy Sticking out his Tongue.

[@damienchance2622]

Yep

[@wolfgang1097]

Could you imagine if the Whammy was mooning the players.

[@vanni9283]

I think the best way to rectify the weaknesses of the PAC options would have been to put the $2000 or LAW up in square #1. This in particular would have worked before the slides had to be recreated in September of 1985.

[@Frankie2Jersey]

Jo is one of my favorite contestants

[@FLSharky]

Yeah she's definitely a treat to watch.

[@aaronbaker4453]

The $500 + One Spin incident from squares #1 and #15 came to a close on June 13, 1986 and the $1400 incident from squares #1 and #10 ended in June 17, 1986. I like the "Ugly Whammy" in square #12 from Round #2.

[@digiblader1]

Two of the whammies in Round 1 are in Curt King's PYL game.

[@VahanNisanian]

A close-up of the slide at 11:25. Also the Pick-A-Corner combinations will become a theme for the next six consecutive weeks.

[@L.LoudisThemanwiththeplan]

13:27 Robert is history.

[@whammy3323]

Hahaha... They mention the trip to Kona and it's not up there until after Jo takes her 1 spin!!

[@digiblader1]

Say goodbye to $500+Spin in Square #1 because of this incident.. and of course, the board really starts to cheapen in the next few eps.

[@MBK1997]

11:24 - The close-up of the "Ugly Whammy"

[@mitchellries256]

Well nothing will be as ugly as the mistake you made saying that this episode 707 when this is really 708.

[@skullfootball9015]

11:24

[@gameshowguy2000]

11:25 There it is.

[@gameshowguy2000]

12:31 *THREE* $750+One Spin's in a row!

[@sirharry13]

I just find it interesting that this Pick-A-Corner combination lasted six months...Pick-A-Corner started being broken when two of the three prizes in square #10 was replaced with cash back in December 1985

[@leegilley9268]

was this the first appearance of the Circus Car Whammy?

[@somerandomgameranimator4481]

I think so

[@lisacogar1490]

Should they use it in the 2019 version

[@franklinmcnally1484]

@@lisacogar1490 Yes.

[@MBK1997]

6 hours and 100 views. Thanx!

[@TheWolfBunny64]

I liked the Taunting Whammy better before it got replaced by the Ugly Whammy. Who agrees with me?

[@LadySpindriftVlogs]

IMHO, they should have kept the Ugly Whammy in Square 16 in Round 1 after they resized all the slides back in 1984.

[@somerandomgameranimator4481]

Who DOESNT agree with you?

[@horrorbro]

Robert is Out At 13:28

[@ericsiegel2401]

Three in a row and he knew it

[@allenmui5457]

Jo wins by I think $72.

[@MBK1997]

13:49 - PAC: $500+, $500+, or $1250?

[@RealBop-itfan]

13:49

[@allenmui5457]

Time to get serious right now because you are in the same situation where Robert was. You also got three whammies. One more whammy and Jo would be the only one remaining in the game and would play against the house because you'll be out of the game just like Robert.

[@dewayneburtonii5360]

Robert is out

[@aaronbaker5887]

The $500 + One Spin incident from squares #1 and #15 came to a close on June 13, 1986 and the $1400 incident from squares #1 and #10 ended in June 17, 1986. I like the "Ugly Whammy" in square #12 from Round #2.
