Make Me A Millionaire Episode 124 - Air Date 6/27/2009

The California Lottery's TV game show, "Make Me a Millionaire," awarded $219,000 in cash and prizes to 12 lucky contestants this week.

Barbara Jackson, a graduate student at California State University, East Bay, snagged $60,000 playing the Millionaire game. Jackson plans to use the money to help finish up her masters degree in recreation. She also said that she would like to buy a brand new car and possibly open up her own boutique.

A homemaker from Pomona, Elizabeth De La Rosa received her winning Scratchers® ticket as a gift from her husband. Though she walked away $60,000 richer after playing California Cool, De La Rosa was more preoccupied with her nerves than with the amount she had won. I was so nervous about being on TV, I didnt really think about the prize money! she said. After some consideration, De La Rosa said she would like to take her family on a vacation to Hawaii.

Two other contestants Janey Huynh of Stanton and Abel Alaniz of Redlands won a new car, the Limited Edition California Jetta made by Volkswagen. Huynh is an economics major at Cal State Fullerton. She is graduating this year. Alaniz won his way on the game show after his father purchased several Scratchers tickets and gave him one to scratch-off.

Of course it is.

i like how the old lady got robbed and booted because she had to automatically pick the 1 remaining X safe. Thats a lame aspect of that game. If there are two safes left, 1 money and one bad, then the round should end after the $ safe is picked and only the x safe remains.
