The "other guy" was Johnny Gilbert, who is indeed "JEOPARDY!"'s current announcer, and a game show emcee himself a long time ago...and he's the only one of those three alive now, since Ed's passing. The 30 second version appeared again on local N.Y. stations within the past week, 'G1', where the "lottery guy" announced a total of "$55 million dollars" {and Don snorts, "Showoff!" at him, at the end}.
Ya' know, I could care less if stupid Nyers wanna throw away their unemployment check on lotto tickets, but please move your fucking fat ass AWAY from the counter while picking your losing numbers so I can get me and my groceries outta the store !
Thanks a lot. Carson's Tonight Show was before my time, and all I know of was that McMahon always said "Here's Johnny!" while introducing him. I didn't know what was meant when he said "heyyy yo" in the commercial, but now I do. Thank you. BTW, I wish McMahon the best with his financial woes, I feel terrible for the guy.
The waitress ate $5 in a Quizno's ad too.

I'm trying to find the longer version of this commercial, the one where Don LaFontaine actually speaks. Only saw it once or twice on TV.
Help?

Does anyone know what McMahon's trying to say? I know he used to say "Here's Johnny", but it doesn't sound like it.
