12:55: Chuck's Porky Pig impression is hilarious.

[@disneydanny2]

*THREE* : "yeah" in that opening? *GOOD LORD*

[@thomasbranham4374]

The 2nd word of the bonus sprint was just brutal

[@richardhernandez4490]

BEQUEST?!! NOBODY would have gotten THAT one!

[@defoedude]

I thought it was FUNERAL myself until the first two in the shuffle popped up!

[@MrMatteNWk]

@@defoedude Mine was "COFFINS"

[@beaujarkko]

Totally! Even when Chuck said there was a Q in it, I couldn't figure it out.

[@StLawrencePlace]

Bequest was a hard word to get!

[@MrMatteNWk]

Really heavy on the "Yeah yeah OW!" audience sound effect today

[@jhzenor61481]

I know right! I heard it a lot when I was a kid watching NBC game shows!

[@tankmcgarrett6594]

I loved the YAH-HOO sound effect!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@mixon270]

@@tankmcgarrett6594 i laugh everytime i hear it

[@disneydanny2]

@@jhzenor61481 I *THINK* it also made a few appearances on Syndicated "Wheel Of Fortune" when it was being taped at NBC as well.

[@richardhernandez4490]

I felt the Bonus Sprint format was the better format for Scrabble.

[@vanni9283]

I thought the 3rd word was 'whispers'.

[@chrisvazquez4291]

It was a bizarre clue

[@krystalgoode3267]

So did I

[@vanni9283]

For the very first word, I might have taken a stab and said 'troopers'.

[@JeffK1980]

12:28-12:35... what the heck was that all about?

[@richardhernandez4490]

The sound guy was a little bit animated on that one. LOL And take a look at Chuck's face. LOL He wanted to strangle Jan for that clue. LOL

[@samsticka]

Didn't David beat Terry Ray in the sprint round?

[@drummingdanny84]

He did.

[@samsticka]

@@drummingdanny84 That's what I thought.

[@richardhernandez4490]

I think this is the part of the run where Chuck really starts railing on the Scrabble writing staff on their bizarre clue writing. LOL

[@kinger982]

We're going to play Scrabble until somebody gets three words right and a chance to play at the scrabble sprint for the amount the bonus round $$ for beating the reigning champion

[@ThunderFist1978]

8:53 - 9:01 😂

[@richardhernandez4490]

I think it is summer of 1987 I believe they stop rotating associate directors, and Issac Mayo from Sale of the Century takes over that role permanently.

[@pernelldh]

Wondering if Isaac Mayo also involved with Time Machine, the sister show of Scrabble and $ale of the Century?

[@richardhernandez4490]

@@pernelldh Nope. Only Sale of the Century and Scrabble.
