How is a trip to anywhere in the U.S. a terrible prize??? That's freakin awesome in my opinion. Now, the prizes for the other contestants... those were pretty bad.
i thought i didn't really understand this show because i couldn't remember it. but now as i watch it 14 or so years later, i realize, i still don't understand it. love the 90s though
Man this kid is a loser, I read the story, about how he just wanted to show his rival how even with a public school education he was better than him. Regardless of whether that is true or not he is just a b-grade comedian, I bet right now that person has a real job, and your still just making lame jokes.
THE Greg Gethard! Wow, I am honoured. While I would love to argue your latter comment about never being called intelligent or funny, it is to hard to prove. Rather I can assure you that you are far wealthier then me, seeing as I am only 16 and have no more then $5000 in my bank account.
Wealthier then a casually employed student, you should put that on your resume or something.
@GreggGeth Wow, after reading this comment... you seem like a pretty big douche. I don't know if that was an attempt at humor, but cutting down strangers on the internet (who are probably in high school) is super embarrassing. You sound like a loser, dude.
Wow! This sure does bring back memories! Back when the future didn't seem so far away!
Very nice job! Keep up the great work! Thanks for posting! A++++++++
Have a great day, a great night, a great week, a great weekend, a great month, a great winter, a Happy New Year and a Happy New Decade! All the best in 2010 and beyond! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!
Yeah I remember watching this as a kid and thinking 45 seconds was never enough for 7 markers.. even if you knew all the countries, you needed to be a quick runner.
Yes, a whole lot of people won throughout the years. I was in the audience of this show when I was 10 in summer camp in the summer of 1995.

I REMEMBER THAT!! Ya even if you know your countries PERFECT it would be next to impossible to do it right, especially on a map that big, even at 8 I thought this was unfair lol.
i would so have sucked in the finally round...bet if it was a non american he would have gotten it cuz they care more about the world then we do lol when i was that age i remember learnin about the US and France, germany basically. Most americans suck with the maps...glad i dont have to take geo anymore lol
Yeah but if he picked the right one it would have been in the wrong order, but would have given away the answer. It's better to choose one you know is wrong, so at least you won't give away the answer. It's called strategy.
well he knew more than most.. I used to think South America and North America were the easiest so when i would play along at home i always knew the kids that got the other continents wouldnt win.
i loved, "Beacon Hill" the guys, "Close to Greg's House." i laughed!
to twobitmage i know a worse one, maybe 5-8 years ago ABC World News Tonight asked people if they knew when the Revolutionary War was, only 2 people out of i think 100+ they years. my brother and i were blow away from that.
This was a TV show in the US? Heh. I'm Irish, to me I know Carmen Sandiego as this cool Geogrphy gmae we played in Computer class. I loved that game back when, wished they showed the TV shows.
Ok we either had alot of imagination back in the day or we we're always High , cause I don't see the appeal now that I see it , but I used to watch this as much as I could .
lmaoooooo he was sooooo excited...y the hell did i want one of those jackets when i was little...i didnt even care bout playing the game i just wanted the jacket
i always wanted to go an this show when i was younger
