Anthony Pinchas
Cruise in and Win Contestant

Because it's the end of the week and the show is almost over Meredith says that they're going to give one more audience member the chance to win a cruise. Anthony lives in New Jersey (town was unclear) and works midnights at a supermarket stocking shelves. He has a 19-year old daughter who's a student at Fairleigh-Dickenson college.

Question: In slang, when a cell phone automatically dials a number while it was in someone's pocket, it is commonly referred to as which of the following?

A - butt dialing
B - blowing up
C - cold calling
D - crank calling

Anthony says he's guilty of this a lot.

THE END OF GAME "NOISE"

[MarleysGh0st]

Anthony said he lives in Carteret, NJ, which is just across the Arthur Kill from Staten Island--definitely Where Else territory.

Too bad beast doesn't watch the show. When I heard Anthony was another midnight shelf stocker, I thought he was a contestant beast could really root for!

Also worth noting for the record: unlike all the other audience contestants, this week, Anthony was seated way up in the top row and had to come bounding down! But from the sight of that tie-dyed tee shirt he was wearing, I can see why they left him up there. He didn't exactly follow the instructions to wear dark, solid colors to the taping!

I haven't been following BAM this year.

So, do you win the cruise for getting the question wrong?
If you get it really wrong, do you get a 2-week Mediterranean adventure (possible with a swim-to-shore excursion)?

It seems that they are no longer asking the audience members to wear dark colors this season.

Well it is going to be on their shakedown cruise. Murphy's Law will rule.

Again I say it seems like they were just dying to give away cruises. Maybe the bookings for the cruise aren't as strong as Disney had hoped.

Disney probably committed to giving away a set number of staterooms in exchange for the publicity, so, yeah, I think they did all they could to give them away. And since there was at least one regular contestant who didn't win the cruise during the week, they had an extra one to give away on Friday's episode.
