Patsy Queen

Nursing instructor. Her husband Alan is with her. It is their 35th wedding anniversary.

A nice couple but they must have married at an older age.

On the T.V. series "Gilmore Girls", the younger Lorelai Gilmore goes by what nickname?

A: Lola
B: Laney
C: Rory
D: Ellie

Patsy doesn't watch this show & decides to ask the audience.

ATA:
A: 9%
B: 11%
C: 72%
D: 8%

Figures that a recent pop culture question might catch her. Since "Gilmour Girls" seems to have been popular viewing among the writers (there have been several questions based on this show) I've seen the answer before.

In 2007, what city's Board of Trade & Mercantile Exchange merged to create one of the world's largest financial exchanges?

A: Shanghai
B: Chicago
C: London
D: Rome

Patsy decides to use the 50/50.

50/50 leaves:

B: Chicago
C: London

The 50/50 doesn't help so Patsy calls her cousin, Beverly. Patsy speaks slowly & there are twelve seconds left when finishes reading the question and answers. With 2 seconds left, Beverly says she is not 100% but would go with Chicago.

Patsy's husband told her when she got to the $16,000 range that is real money. She wants to make it to her 36th anniversary and decides to
walk with $8000.

She should have gone with Beverly's answer. I don't know if there is a London Board of Trade but I've heard of the Chicago BoT, so figured that was the right answer.

I'd be going for $25K with all lifelines in play.

Patsy's husband told her when she got to the $16,000 range that is real money. She wants to make it to her 36th anniversary and decides to walk with $8000.

So, after all these years of marriage, Patsy's husband wouldn't support her making a once-in-a-lifetime 50/50 gamble of $7K to win $8K plus the opportunity to continue for much more?

Patsy Queen just wanted to have a good time during her appearance on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire."

Yeah, everyone has their own risk/reward ratio. Some are lower than others. $8K is still a lot of money to many people. Without details on their personal finances, we often can't fathom the reasoning behind continuing or walking. Some folks, as described in the quote above, have other motives behind the action. As long as she has no regrets about it, it's okay. Maybe not good viewing from a BB perspective, but it's her decision.
