Easy question. Has anyone heard of anyone they know being used as a +1 lifeline this year? It seems as if there would be an active market for players with a track record of game show success.

My Plus One was Brandon Saunders; he's been in Jeopardy's Teen Tournament, did well on Millionaire, and came in second on Million Dollar Quiz.

Brandon is also a friend of mine who was at TCONA the past two years. I hung out with him and his family at Million Second Quiz. He's a real competitor and a solid choice for a +1. Did you know him in real life before you taped your episode?

I just saw the show. It's better than last year's.
The ABC station here has BAM and J! back-to-back at 3:00. Good think I work from home and finish my day at 3:00.

Cory Anotado, who won 60k on The Chase, is a +1 this season. https://twitter.com/pacdude/status/5076 ... 56/photo/1. On the interview at Buzzerblog, EP James Rowley says a $250,000 winner from last year was used by a contestant.
We used to have a PAF sign-up list on the reference post. We should get one up for contestants who need a +1. Of course, it takes a little more effort to be a +1 than to be a PAF, but surely we have enough people within traveling distance of CT who would be willing, yes?

Here's another video highlight on the BAM site:
Anita taped immediately after me. Terry has changed his wardrobe in the interim.
