Okay, so over dinner while I was grillin' I was watching some old, OLD Family Feud reruns. I hate the fact that GSN shows more newer game shows now, instead of the classic.

Vote for your favorite classic, and tell me why you love it.

I am a Press Your Luck guy, so simple, but just watching the people on that show is funny.

so is the newlywed game, but i was late to my TR 1pm class at TLU my senior year everyday because i had to watch the full half hour of Press Your Luck

i've seen some couples on the Newlywed Game look like they're ready for divorce right there on the spot

match game is a classic, it's such a pointless show, yet kinda cool, and humorous at times

didnt you ever get the feeling that all the celebrities on that show were either drunk or on something during tapings?

I reject this poll and condemn it to die in hell....

The what's the best game show argument begins and ends with Jeopardy!

Good grief people...surely I am not the only one that noticed it was missing from the list...

I like The $25,000 Pyramid. I loved watching the people trying to get the other person to guess the topic or category. Especially when they would just keep stressing one word as if to say "you idiot, can't you guess?":D

Oh yeah, I remember now. Did you live on campus or have a place in Seguin or hopefully McQueeney? What were your hangouts?

on campus...the cheapest option. back then you could still drink on campus.

hangouts? Austin Street Live and the VI of course, but spent most of my time in SA, SM, or Austin.

Makes sense. Not much to do in "da' guin" . Throughout HS I spent most of my time in New Braunfles on the lake or in SA. Only places I went in Seguin were to school, when it was still open SportsWest (I used to be a bowling freak), and the Activity Center. That place was like my second home; I love basketball.

"The Gong Show" with Chuck Burris. My all time favorite. Do they show this one on GSN. Chuck Burris was crazy!

"Truth or Consequences", I think some town in Arizona or New Mexico named itself after that show.

You ever hear the story of the guy that memorized the pattern on Press Your Luck and went on the show and wiped them out? hahahahaha

He taped the show...and watched the pattern in slow motion...and noticed that it never changed.

Now that is funny.
