Title: Johnny Gilbert on Sweep
Post by: cool245 on June 01, 2010, 08:00:19 PM

I tried searching but couldn't find anything, but I always wondered why Johnny only announced the first few months when the PAX version premiered before being replaced by Randy (who also did a great job)?

I don't mean to jump in ahead of Randy, but it was implied money was the issue.

But Johnny still had his gig on Jeopardy! to fall back on.....
