irismason42:
I have some questions I'm gonna ask you about '80s Pyramids.
1)What's the '80s Pyramids all about?
2)What were the dollar amounts on the Winners Circle board?
3)Who were the announcers of '80s Pyramids and were they permanent voicers?
4)Does Red morph into Blue everytime?
5)Was the $5,000 bonus the only bonus available during the championships?

I'm sorry, but this has GOT to be a troll.
The 80s Pyramids were all about stacking stone blocks into trianglular buildings to win $30 million dollars.

They were derivated by running a Fibonacci series through an inverse logarithmic hash.

Dick Hertz and Seymour Butts were the two best known. To the best of our knowledge they had permanent voices, yes.

No. On alternate Sundays it morphs into a lovely shade of chartreuce.

No. There was also a $1,350 cash-back bonus available at participating Volkswagen dealerships.

I don't understand what you mean with questions 1 and 4.
2. $50-$100-$150-$200-$250-$300 for 1982-88 versions.
3. The 80s Pyramid really had no permanent announcer: Johnny Gilbert, Bob Hilton, Charlie O'Donnell, Jerry Bishop, Charlie Tuna, Rod Roddy, Jack Clark, and Dean Goss all did announcing turns on the 1982-88 version.
5. Yes, the $5K tiebreaker bonus was the only maingame bonus available during $100K tournaments(1985-88 version, 1991 version had no tiebreaker bonus available)
