Game show bloopers
Steve Gavazzi:
Gonna throw this one out, not so much because it's funny as to see if anyone else actually remembers it:
Mid-'80s episode of Price; game is Deluxe Dice Game. Bob doesn't realize there's a ten-thousands digit that needs lit up until halfway through the game.

[quote name=\'adamjk\' date=\'Aug 29 2004, 08:01 PM\'] I know this is true, I heard it from good authority at Golden Road. It was a while ago, but I do know it happened, even if I haven't seen it. If you want proof, I can ask over Golden Road if you want. [/quote]
Here's the deal. It happened around '85 or so. The kid was a college kid, and he wore a shirt with words to the effect that "Bob, I'd give the shirt off my back to win". He gave Bob his shirt after he won the Showcase Showdown (not on camera), and before the showcase Barker thought he should have a shirt on, so Barker took his shirt off (not on camera) and gave it to the contestant, and Barker put his jacket back on and did the showcase just wearing a suit jacket. The contestant wore Barker's shirt through the showcase. At the end of the show the models tried to take his jacket off.
It's worth it dragging this back from three days so this thread doesn't swell to 60 pages.

The "Mosquitoes" on "Scrabble"
The "YOU FOOL!!" episode on Hollywood Squares, which took up the entire half-hour!
Garry Moore holding an armadillo until it started to poop (and the panelists trying not to walk on it) on an early '70s "To Tell The Truth"
I've Got A Secret: One of the panelists trying to milk a cow until IT started to poop and later went off the stage
The "erection" clue to "Things that are stiff" on Davidson $100,000 Pyramid

About the IGAS Cow blooper, I think GSN aired the episode where this happened, but the part where the cow had "bad timing" was missing, but yet everyone KNEW what happened. I guess the moment was edited out of the original broadcast, but someone was smart enough to save this rather uncomfy but funny moment.

It was in there on GSN, just as MOGSM aired it. I never noticed what it had done until the second time I saw it, but it was in the original broadcast.
