Another promising run ended by a soft drink, like our own hanzz and Fresca, and Friday's contestant Rosalie. Got to be embarrassing for Steve since he's a bartender.

Meredith spills the drink all over as they go to commercial!

I figured that the promise they'd drink when he won the million was equivalent to a vow of teetotalism; drinking when his run ended, instead, made more sense. But spilling the drink made the whole gimmick worthwhile!

[SportsFan68]

So far, so good.

Great stack, so far anyway.
