This lady was REALLY excited. I could tell why shet picked.

OK up to the $16K. Foreign food-I bet the audience might know this, I didn't (even though I studied Spanish for a year in college-this word didn't come up.)
I'm just a game show nerd.

I didn't take spanish but I'm guessing you could probably eliminate cake and cookie if you have any spanish knowledge. And then use the 50/50 to help you out more than that PAF did.

I will have to ask MoH is this was someone she knows. From her hometown, the birthplace of Friendly's Ice Cream. I really need to get on to try and vindicate what used to be the perception of smart people living in Massachusetts. [Say, maybe that's why they don't come to Boston. Based on the performance (Ogi Ogas being an exception), we're too dumb!]

ATA on the $16K, then Googling PAF if it doesn't give a clear consensus.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

Did she really?? I haven't gotten to watching it yet, it's just hanging out in the dvr. At what point did that come up, and was it sarcastic????

Honestly, this was the first time I've ever rooted for a contestant to get a question wrong. That woman was a more than a bit irritating.

$16K: Never heard of this treat... and I even took 4 years of high school Spanish! The audience might not know this, so I'll PAF.

Luann was definitely a live wire. Too bad that she met the same fate as so many other live wires.
