Each of you will get a gift in the form of spins as The Gift of the Magi is the correct answer! THE GIFT OF THE MAGI
FOUR CHRISTMASES
ARTHUR CHRISTMAS(Audience Applause)In this ironic story, Farley Granger and Jeanne Crain portray Jim and Della who are very poor and are agonizing over what to give each other for Christmas. Jim pawns his antique heirloom pocket watch to get money to buy Della decorative combs for her hair while she sells her hair to a wig maker so she can buy Jim an elegant fob for his watch. Kevin goes to 3, George goes to 4, Michael gets 3 spins and goes to 5!  (Ding) (Ding) (Ding)OK, players. Here's the final regular question of the game before we go into the Big Spin Bonus question. Question #4: When one thinks of Christmas films, one can't help but reminisce about 'A Christmas Story', the tale of a young boy named Ralphie who is practically obsessed with getting which type of item as a Christmas gift?PM me your buzzcodes now. |

Now incidentally, I haven't seen the movie "A Christmas Story" myself, but I've heard that it's one of the greatest holiday films of all time, but I did catch a glimpse of it, courtesy of the Nostalgia Critic, and from his review, or so I've been told, Ralphie was obsessed in getting a BB Gun for Christmas! BB GUN
FOOTBALL
GI JOE DOLL(Audience Applause)Specifically, Ralphie (played by Peter Billingsley) wants an 'official Red Ryder Carbon Action 200 shot range model air rifle', but he's told repeatedly that he'll 'shoot his eye out'. Actors Melinda Dillon and Darren McGavin really help make this film a classic, playing Ralphie's mother and father, respectively. Kevin goes to 4, George gets 3 spins goes to 7, and Michael goes to 6!  (Ding) (Ding) (Ding)And now players, it's time for the final question of our 40th Anniversary Special episode of Press Your Luck, and it's the Big Spin Bonus Question. It's a multiple-answer question and you have to get all parts of the answer correct in order to go to the Big Spin Board. This comes on a first-come, first-served basis, so no buzzcodes. In this round, you can pick up at least 4 spins, and win as much as a whopping 10 spins or maybe even more. Be careful, though, because if you buzz-in and if even one of your answers is wrong, both of your opponents will each get 2 spins. So, if you don't know it, don't buzz-in. And you have 24 hours to respond by the time the question is posted. If you're ready, here's the Bonus Question. BONUS: How many Oscars did one of the earliest Holiday movies, Miracle on 34th Street, win, and what kinds of awards did this movie win?Your 24 hours starts now. |

 You got it! (Audience Cheers and Applause)George has gotten the big 10 spins that he wanted! (Play Question Round 2 Bumper Cue at 9:15) Which means that at the end of the second Question Round...  (Ding)Kevin has 4 spins, George has a whopping 17 spins, and Michael has 6 spins. Wow! 27 spins in total for this round, setting a new record of spins collected that any other episode in Press Your Luck history, but the big question is, "Can they turn all of those spins into Big Bucks"? We will find out after this commercial break, because when we come back, there will be over $250,000 in cash and prizes up there on the Big Board, along with the Big Bank, and the possibility of winning the Whammy's Bank, and they're all looking for a home. The question is, "Where will it go?" We'll answer all of those questions when our special 40th Anniversary edition of Press Your Luck returns! (Audience Cheers and Applause) |

(Play Big Board Round 2 Intro cue at 10:07) (Audience Cheers & Applause) (Play Big Board Spinning Loop at 10:25) DK: And at long last, we're back on our 40th Anniversary Special episode of Press Your Luck 2023, and the Holiday Season is just around the corner, and we're already bringing a LOT of exciting gifts on our Big Board, which by the way, it is filled with over $250,000 in cash and prizes! Take a look at it!    We've got loads of cash, prizes and trips galore, and yes, something with 4 wheels. Right, George? George: You bet we do, Dayo. It's a brand-new truck! (Audience Cheers & Applause)The F-Series has laid claim to the title of best-selling truck in America for 46 years running, so when it comes time to tinker with the formula that keeps it king of the pickup hill, Ford tends to abide by one rule: Try not to F it up.
The 2024 Ford F-150 has overgone an almost complete overhaul with new and exciting features! Ditched is the former base engine, the 3.3-liter V6, replaced across the board with the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, a twin-turbo unit turning out 325 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque (vs. 290 hp and 265 lb-ft of the 3.3-liter). Other new features include 20-Inch Chrome-Like PVD Wheels, SYNC® 4 with Enhanced Voice Recognition with 12-Inch LCD Display, Ford BlueCruise Equipped, B&O® Sound System by Bang & Olufsen with HD Radio (8 speakers including subwoofer), PowerBoost Full Hybrid V6 Engine w/ 2.4kW Pro Power Onboard, Head-Up Display, Pro-Access Tailgate when equipped with Bed Utility Package, Intelligent Access with Push-Button Start, Adaptive Cruise Control, LARIAT® Black Appearance Package, and for the very first time in Ford's history, a 1-year Plan of Stolen Vehicle Services.
And it's all right here in the all-new 2024 Ford F-150 Lariat, and it is a prize that's valued more than $55,000!(More Cheers & Applause)DK: Oh yeah! That's a great prize to aim for! Thanks, George! Also, folks, we've got some other special squares up there on the board, including The Big 40.  As we are celebrating Press Your Luck's 40th Anniversary, we have that special square up there, and it contains 40 of something. Whatever it is, we don't know until you hit that special square, and I can promise you that it will be a fantastic experience, and it'll most certainly put you into the lead. But do you also know what's special about this second and final round? A chance to win $1,000,000! (Audience Cheers & Applause)And how, you ask? Well...   You must hit the HIT IT HERE! space twice. The first one is worth $25,000, and the second one is worth 10 times less, or $2500. But after that...  ...comes the golden square that is worth $1,000,000! (More Cheers & Applause)Of course, the Whammies are determined not to let that happen! In fact, they want to steal all of your money while keeping their own big money safe. That's how greedy those little monsters are, and so far, they've done a pretty decent job at doing just that as the Whammy and his partner-in-crime Tammy and their minions are itching up and ready to steal even more and continue to put all of that into their Big Bank, which by the way, it's currently at...  BIG BANK: $56,476
WHAMMY'S BANK: $977,954$56,476, and it will continue to grow if you keep hitting those Whammies. This is where they usually do maximum destruction here, so don't take this board for granted. However, this is now your opportunity to get back at the Whammy by hitting the Big Bank square!  (BIG BANK!)Once you hit that square, you will then have a 1-in-6 chance of Whammying the Whammy by finding 1 of the 3 Big Bank squares on our 18-square board. Also available on our board is the Whammy's Bank. If you hit that, you'll get 1 Whammy token, as well as 1 extra spin and some cash between $1,000 and $10,000, and to move on to the next step of the Whammy's Bank, which currently stands at $977,954, you'll need 1 Silver Token. And during the break, the producers have rolled a die to determine how many Whammy tokens you need to acquire the Silver token, and tonight, it's going to be a little bit easier this time, because you'll need 2 Whammy Tokens to acquire that Silver Token. And in the process, if you have any Whammies against you, you may get a chance to LOSE THEM ALL! (Audience Cheers & Applause)And let's not forget about this; whoever has the most money at the end of this round wins the game, and if your total is less than $100,000, then you'll be able to play the Big Bad Bonus Board for a chance to win hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash. With all of that said, let's check the scores and find out who our winner is going to be... Kevin has $0, George has $12,555, and Michael has $13,837, and as such Michael, you have the advantage of going last into this round. That also means that we start with the player with the lowest amount of money, and I wonder who it is... Ah, yes. Kevin, that is you. You have no money, 3 Whammies against you, but you do have 4 spins. Keep in mind that there is a $5000 or Lose-1-Whammy square up there on the board, and if you want to stick around, I highly suggest that you hit that square as soon as possible. So, are you going to Press Your Luck and try to get some money or are you going to strategize a bit by passing those spins? |

(Audience Gasps)You are passing all 16 spins to Kevin... Oh my!  (Passed Spin(s) SFX)Kevin, George has passed the remaining 16 spins to you. In other words, he has loaded a revolver with 16 bullets in it. You have to take all 16 of those spins, one at a time, and hopefully, for your sake, that you don't hit a Whammy. If you can go actually go through all 16 of these spins, and there will be no 2 questions about it; you will make history. With all of that being said, here comes the first one. Good luck.
