...and guess what came at a bad time. This time, Pat just kept the the envelope open, and our champ could see it. He missed out on...
$100,000.
$100,000.
Not so great. Pat's still happy as he leaves with $19,000 in cash.
In the post-game chat, Pat reminds us that Thanksgiving is tomorrow. Will Vanna be stuffing a bird, candying a yam, or..."all of the above", she says. She likes all that stuff! Does she put the stuffing- actually, it's not stuffing if you don't put it in the bird, then it's dressing. Vanna does both, because she makes enough for several days. Just last week, Pat got out some leftover turkey from last year, and it was a little cold.
