Win Ben Stein's Money 9/19/97 - Craig/Rose/Hank - Part 1

This is quite a cool curiousity; a first-season episode of the show that made game shows and comedies collide! Note how slightly primitive the show was back then; they used cards for the questions (ala Fleming's Jeopardy!)

No penalty for an incorrect answer, but a grave penalty for phrasing your answer in the form of a question: The dreaded dunce cap.

I used to watch this show when I was small, it was my favorite show.

@gameshowguy2000 You don't get the dunce cap if you start your question by saying "Is it..."

Much more entertaining to see him throw, puke, paddle, etc the money back on the board.

@adamdicy - I thought those categories and questions were manual cards on those 2001 Venice Beach eps. as well.

Something else I recalled during the very early eps. of WBSM was that they awarded $5K on ties in the Best of 10 Round originally before they quickly changed it to an additional $1,000 for ties in the Best of 10 round.
