Another down to the wire Moment from Pyramid Game Show Bonus Round #9

They needed a clock that counts down the tenth of a second like it does in the NBA and NHL.

Talking about close call, with :01 second left on the clock. That's a buzzer beater.

Good thing the rules allow the correct answer to be counted once they've moved on to the next category. I suppose since she didn't start giving clues for the next category his answer for the previous one counted.

@JMcH It didn't matter. As long as he said what it was, he would've gotten the point. It's happened on several occasions.

I wonder if the vane display clock and the eggcrate timer are synchronized.

They have to be!!!

I always love the clock shot during close wins (usually when it displays "1" or "0" is when Dick asks for it).

@PriceRight89

I've seen it when it displayed 2 and 3 seconds as well. In fact there was a shot of it after Denise Bumbliss won the $100k with 7 seconds left on it.

Anyway, you just gotta love those dramatic wins!!!
