Banzai - what will I say?

People bet on MUCH less serious things. The average American is an idiot. While I don't advocate gambling scams (though I DO advocate parting a sucker from his money), a good way to make a few bucks would be to call a buddy on the East Coast, have him email you the results of the show, and then go out drinking.*
* I advise this method only if you have a rectum that can support a sideways-mounted pool cue if you get found out. :)

Far left, (as opposed to near left :-P) IIRC. If I'm wrong then I'll be having lunch with a rappin' dragon.
At first, the way they \"shuffled\" so slowly, I thought it was just a gag, i.e. \"There's no way you WON'T be able to keep up.\" Guess I was wrong. Anyhow, I enjoyed the show myself, and don't understand the negativity it's received online (not here but rec.arts.tv). Of course, I'm trying to get into comedy, and find this silliness intriguing. :-)

I must've had a keener eye, I picked the right one, and I found the show amusing in some ways...I guess I may watch it a few more times!

I caught part of \"Banzai\" in Australia when they used a few segments to fill out a half hour after a rugby match ran long, and I thought it a hoot.
But let me raise the question. . . is it a game show? Nobody wins or loses, at least on camera and not in the frathouse.
