Another centenarian WWTBAM fan

#1 Post by MarleysGh0st » Wed Mar 04, 2009 7:52 am

Since I know TPTB love this desirable demographic, I'll note that Elmira Gandy Crapps celebrated her 102nd birthday in January. Happy birthday, "Aunt Myra"!

When asked about some of her favorites, she listed “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire,” and “Andy Griffith” at the top.
The article also mentions that she's the March “calendar girl” for the National Centenarian Awareness Project.

A calendar girl! Maybe that's the What Else hook that could get her in the Hot Seat! :mrgreen:

I guess even Regis and Andy Griffith can still be the hot young "stud muffin" to somebody...

If my mom had lived that long, I have no doubt that she would have listed Millionaire and Price is Right as her top two, with Wheel and Jeopardy! following.
