A crew member that called Brian, Ali, and Justin won $27k on Press Your Luck

This morning on Brian, Ali, and Justin, crew member Zach called in to talk about how he won $27k on a game show called Press Your Luck. The crazy thing about this story is that he was set to win over $400k, and tried to win the $1 million dollars. Instead, he hit a whammy- and ended up with $27k. He’s still a winner in our book. What did he do with the money? He helped his wifey buy a car, and got a nice kitchen backsplash; it really tied the room together nicely. Zach still tries to not think about all of the money that he could’ve had, he’s happy with what he’s got.

Here is the episode he was in-
