I didn't know Michael was a BB, but he was definitely my good luck charm. I enjoyed watching him play.

Just watched your show Michael--Congrats!!!

Was there some editing on the last jump---the magic 8-ball question? You appeared to be heading that way and switched to not saying 8-ball to jump and wondered if the 4th lifeline--audience-- helped. It just seemed a quick change of mind. Just curious.

You were fun to watch and appeared you were having a lot of fun.

Haha - thank you!! I had an awesome time and it was a dream come true to be on a game show so it was awesome!!

After hitting $40,000 on my first two questions and not knowing this one 100%, I just couldn't pull the trigger and had to jump it. You could feel the tension release in the studio after I said jump though, and I could sense it even in the televised show too. It's like the audience collectively let out a big sigh after I jumped. I knew I did the right thing after that. Wish I could have saved it for the planet question, though, but at least I walked away with something other than $1,000 :-)
