Contestant almost wins $80,000 on Press Your Luck

[dkoch2]

i found my new ringtone

[Luffymon88]

just imagine if he won michael larson's money

[PhoenixGoddess1983]

Was this before or after Michael Larson's epic win?

[CapnE625]

Note to self: When going on a game show, take twice the amount of crack that this guy took XD.

[corc7614]

kid's trying to pay bail

[TheWolf119911]

uhh... sorry sir the police are here they said your on drugs... oh and mexico called... they want their mustache back

[pokemonfan5961]

this guy is crazy

[fredfinks]

@pokemonfan5961

He's not crazy, he's just COKING OUT OF HIS FREAKIN MIND!

The Colombian marching powder he took was good, it usually doesn't last long and this guy probably didn't have a chance to 'go to the bathroom' midway.

[emlsox4life]

Gene,Gene--the Winning Machine!!

[OmagaMinion]

HA! Micheal Larson got 110K

[maggosh]

Someone make a memepic of this guy. XD

[generalbullmoose]

I believe this guy is more annoying than Karen...possibly even more than Larson.

[DJCandyManMike]

So how much did Gene end up winning?

[yabbaguy]

@DJCandyManMike Eight *teen* thousand dollars.

[DJCandyManMike]

@yabbaguy

Still not a bad amount for back then. I wonder how he felt about it after all was said and done.

[cocoaviolinist]

paying attention to those two whammy-less spaces, you can tell this was before michael larson showed him who REALLY won 80,000 dollars.

[mattsapienza]

1044 SPINS????

[Miketar2424]

Eigh-teee-thou---sand- dowll-erz!!! Nin Ten Do Six tee fooouuurrrr!!!!!

[NewPhoenixFilms]

Eighty-Thaousand Dollahz! =}}

[Shannimal27]

I'm sure cocaine wasn't involved here.........

[indianamerican10]

But winning 80 grand is not true.

[vanni9283]

You aught to make an $80,000 graphic to flash on the screen when the game is over....LOL!!!

[botax117]

80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! COMEON BABY!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! 80 thousand dollars!! xD

[xFallenAnjelx]

Geez! Why didn't he say "80 thousand dollars" a few times! He might have one!!". Hahaha!!!

[GAMESofthe90S]

THIS guy was an awesome contestant! Gene Snyder was his name

[notabadguy06]

so he had an orgasm?

[GSNSmashFan3]

The 3 people that disliked this video didn't win $80,000.

[charvelgtrs]

Give that man $80,000 already.

[metalsnake27]

I liked when he said $80,000

[VelvetBliss7]

He reminds me of a young Tony Orlando.

[TheJacobsVideos]

OMG the guy said "$80.000" 14 times

[TheJacobsVideos]

@TheJacobsVideos Oops I Meant 15 times

[gameshowluvr86]

A prime example of how cocaine was running rampant during the 1980s...

[PsYcHoFaB]

And they say drugs are bad..... =/

[natefromcanada]

So how much did he want to win?

[UNCJerry77]

YOU GOTTA KNOCK OUT THE CHAMP!!! GENE RULES!

[RySenkari]

I wonder if he says $80,000 over and over during sex?

[someone64]

I think the Gene guy just misunderstood Peter Tomarken when, in the beginning, he said "80 thousand bucks up there" and so Gene thought there was actually an $80,000 square.

[TwoTones]

Cocaine's one hell of a drug.

[gameshowluvr86]

@TwoTones LMAO!!

[jpwjr1199]

how much did this friggin guy actually win?

[BTRAIN632]

See, thats what game shows are missing today. Back in the day you felt something from them, that and they had a decent time slot during the day. PYL will always be the shizz, and this episode and this crazy bloke is one of the main reasons why. This day and age we need a game show revival, I would rather watch this, or match game, or name that tune, or joker's wild, hell even frickin bullseye, than crap like the view or martha steward, or bullcrap like that.

[eric829]

you didnt see michael larsen screaming $110,237! when he did it ... $80,000 sounds way funnier =)

[MVillani1985]

@eric829 Michael did say "I'm going for a hundred" when he had 94,000-something, but that's about it.

[eric829]

@MVillani1985 ... thats right i remember that from the PYL special they had on game show network

[tmleafs75]

lmao

[PYLrulz1984]

$80,000?!? Michael Larson laughs at that

[jajison]

@PYLrulz1984 He didn't make as much but I think he's more entertaining. Larsen just got old after a while.

[DeleteThisMF]

That guy was a nut lol

[drdontcare123]

that guy with the mustache is really shy and humble, isn't he?

[gooberchild35]

generic 80s guy

[comedychrises]

He looks like Borat

[Krazy3912]

I was under the impression that a "Whammy" took nearly $80,000.00. :-)

[bb6f44]

I wish it would've taken 80 grand from this tool.

[xxCrazyKid]

This $80000 guy is cocky!

[etrnlchaos]

80,000 dollars.

[SaleGuy]

Gene is the man!!!!!

[TheRyanExperiment]

15 times $80000

[xobrentox]

This guy is my hero.

[xobrentox]

Reminds me of The Ultimate Warrior

[mpontheair2]

Only if you're Michael Larson.

[gameshowguy2000]

I'm assuming this video was just a joke. We knew for sure he didn't win THAT much on the show.

[bisco1915]

What was he on??

[ldaniel2337]

i dont know but i think he won 80 THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha he can buy all the "Stuff" he wants

[WSBT960]

Nothing, the next show he admitted quote.."I forgot to take my vitamins"
