Default No Annabelle. NO.NO.NO.

Was anybody else screaming at this woman this morning as she blew $4000. I couldn't believe she just kept going and how goofy she was. I'm happy for the contestants on the radio show giveaway who just get a few hundred. And she goes for it with that much cash in her pocket--LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shouldn't this be in the "Random Thoughts" thread?

It was this morning on JackFM. A show where they give away cash and the contestant makes decisions on whether to go on or take the cash. This was hilarious and goofy at the same time. Kid is yelling at her to quit. She is semi-delirious. Heck one of the announcers left.

I just kept imagining what I could do with $4000.

Admitting you listen to the Jack FM morning show should be in the confessions thread.

I can admit that no problem. I listen to the radio the same way I watch TV. I flick from channel to channel. I'm an adult male after all--that's the way we do things Ktrain.

Her husband sounded pleased when they called him at work to toy with him (thinking that she won), then told that she actually blew it.

I thought that was kind of cruel. You notice that Eric Francis is usually the one saying, "we shouldn't do this"? He's actually the nice guy of the two of them.

I can't stand the announcers, but I like most of the music (except that Madonna crap)

Yeah I'm sure they are going to milk it for awhile. I arrived at work at the same time as one of the other employees. She steps out of the car and looks at me and says "were you listening to that dumb broad". I just laughed and nodded.

Annabelle's rep will be spreading today methinks.

No you don't have to know anything. Just a question of how greedy you are. Are you happy to have say $1000 or do you just have to take one more shot? It's just a series of either dollar amounts or a siren instead. The contestant chooses to take the money or go onto to the next chance.

And Annabelle just kept going and going.

It's kind like the game on Energy 101.5 right now... Beat the Bank

Someone on there got up to $7500 I believe and lost it all because they kept going. Max they could have won is $50,000

Who controls when the dollars or sirens go? Is it random?

It's either pre-determined or random, not sure which. The hosts have repeatedly claimed they have no idea about how much or how long it can go.

I won $900 on that a year or so ago. Apparently could have won $25000 though... ugh
