In no order: Cullen, Clark, White, Polic II, Nipsey.

Yes.
I would prepare to hear the dulcet tones of the FailBuzzer, then.

The sick thing is that some TV producer will probably take that idea and run with it for the next Pyramid revival.

I wanted to say something about Pyramid Players when I heard this, but thought it'd be better if we just left it alone.

By the way, I just wanted to mention that most of the partners mentioned in this thread were never the winning celeb in the $100K tournament, but were commonly seen as some of the best players ever. I'm wondering if there is some correlation there (I.e. great in the regular season, not as much in the playoffs, and vice versa)

One of the players that is (from what I've seen) widely regarded as one of the greatest Pyramid players ever is Adrienne Barbeau. Did she even take part in a $100k tournament during the Clark era?

From what I can ascertain here, she did one tournament in January 1987.

Tin-foil hat time: by not having those we've listed, it balances out the celebrities' skill better (and probably lengthens the tournament just a touch longer).

According to Wikipedia, she won two in the Davidson era, making her one of only three celebs to win twice (Shelley Smith won two in the Clark era, and Barry Jenner won one in each era)
