www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhE_xcjCZ5gHey guys, I thought it was about time I finally start uploading some episodes from my personal collection so here are two episodes from Season 15 during Best Friends Week on 11/25/97 & 11/28/97. I don't believe these episodes have ever been resurfaced online at any point so these will be brand new to some or those that have seen them in the past will finally get to see them again. Forgive me about some of the quality and abrupt stops as the tape these episodes were on was old when converted to DVD and the closings of both episodes are missing completely. A few things of note about these episodes: - This is the last week the 4th Jackpot Wedge is used
- On 11/28, this is the last known time this particulars seasons style Prize Puzzle was used until 2003
- On 11/28 the scene where contestants Mike & Kevin get in a hilarious shoving match with Pat at the end of the bonus round are featured I believe in both the 3000th and 4000th shows
- Although the opening is missing, also on 11/28 there was a scene in the 3000th and 4000th episodes where Pat lifts Vanna's long black dress off the ground and carries it for a little bit. As said before unfortunately, that media is missing but they discuss it at the closing of the show
Enjoy these episodes!

What a bizarre category strip for the Prize Puzzle. Also interesting that Pat mentions that it can only be Event, Place, or Thing. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting that two of the BR prizes were a trip to the West Indies and an annuity. I have two episodes in my collection from Best Friends Week 1996 that also featured those prizes. Neither prize was won during the episodes I have, though one team missed out on the West Indies trip.
EDIT: Also, nice to see another Chicago-area Wheel fan! That Eyewitness News commercial makes me miss John Drury.
