...BECAUSE HE'S THE FIRST $100,000 WINNER IN NEARLY TWO YEARS (ALSO THE FIRST IN THE TRIPLE TOSSUP/MIKE RICHARDS ERA)!!!!!!

Patrick's final tally is $117,500 cash & St. Croix - well done, my good man!

Bonus!

Closing Chat: The confetti didn't come down, and we all think that it's either the machine stopped working or it's the new EP. And so, the hosts throw confetti on him.

Mike Richards is listed as Mike "Confetti" Richards in the end credits. Also, this big win was spoiled on the daily promo - I think that's to be expected nowadays.

Personal Rating: it's actually a 9
