Do you remember that Press your Luck game show?

I use to watch that all of the time when i was a kid. Did anyone else watch it??

No whammy, no whammy -- STOP!!!

Yep--loved that show. When I was a kid, I also loved Card Sharks--remember that one? I'm just dying to see either of those games show up as slot machines, since that seems to be a slots theme right now. I'd love to "No Whammy!" in Vegas!

those little whammies that moved across the screen to take all of those people money--man they much be some rich whammies!!!

I can still watch it, we have the Game Show Network.

My boys used to LOVE that game when they were little! I even stopped what I was doing to watch it with them!

I totally agree that a "Whammy" slot machine would be a great way for me to lose my quarters!

My nephew (now 20) used to love to watch that show when he was toddler. He couldn't say Whammies. He used to call them Lammies. That was a fun gameshow. Remember when game shows used to be on tv all morning? Now it's informercials.

I loved those Whammies!

I enjoyed Concentration and Sale of the Century too.

I dont know the show you are talking about...but they have a show called Whammy.

 

[Bob Slydell]

OCM -- Whammy is a newer version of Press Your Luck, which was on during the 80's.

Thanks Bob - I just looked it up. 1983-86. I moved around a lot as a kid, so early 80 shows I didnt see much of. But my older brother was just on IM and he knew what that was and that "Let's make a deal" show.

I remember the whammies! I used to watch that a lot when I was younger.

I used to love Press Your Luck, but Sale of the Century was one of my favorites! I've never seen reruns of that on the Game Show Network - they should, it was a great show.
