Game show false memories

I get this, and honestly, that would have made a lot of people happy. We were there for an early taping during the first summer run, and taking the Hot Seat apparatus off the stage for the Fastest Finger and putting it back on afterward took about twenty minutes each time--and this was for a half-hour episode. It was pretty obvious Regis was not enjoying the delays.

At what point did we stop doing that? January run? Did the UK stop doing it around the same time?

I've got one that isn't related to watching a game show but rather being part of it.
I was picked as a contestant on Price during an August 2015 taping. In my mind I calmly stood up, walked down to contestant's row, and went from there.
When I saw the show air four months later... not so much! I don't think I've ran that fast in my life frankly.
Anyone else have an "in game experience" that they remembered differently from tape to air?

I remember my arm flab wasn’t as jiggly as they made it seem to be. 🙂
I don’t know if this was what you meant, but when I first got to watch it back I could still remember clearly almost everything that happened including stuff that they left on the cutting room floor.
Quite certain I’m not the only one to be able to say that.

On wheel, I couldn't spell "jewelry" back then. Can't spell it now (had it not been for autocorrect).
That, and to go through 15-20 minutes for a $9,000 payoff really flew by.
