Lingo New Year's marathon

And Bonus Lingo had the following rules:

$100 cash for every word you got right, and that WAS added to your total, Win OR Lose.

If you got a Lingo on ANY of your draws, you got an additional $4000 prize package that included a Casio Pocket PC, an Argus Digital Camera, a Croton Watch, and a Borders Gift Card. (Pretty peppy prize package, I should say.)

 IIRC it took at least two balls to get a Lingo in the bonus. Also, the Croton Watch plugs have been taken out of the episodes this time around, as they were on the second season shows several months back.

 It did. The pattern of the 12 marked off spots called for at least two and sometimes three or four spots to make Lingo.

And as I recall we valued the Argus digital camera as being worth around $100, so hold yer applause on that, although I suppose it beats a kick in the ass if you don't already have a digital camera. :)

 I noticed that, too.  Did Croton go under or something?

 They probably were worried about somebody only getting one word and then not having a chance at getting a LINGO =)
