The Man Who Broke A 1980s TV Game Show
Michael Larson was a contestant on the popular 1980s game show Press Your Luck. He went on a legendary run that had the audience shocked, the host losing his mind, his fellow contestants frustrated, and network executives on the phone with their legal team. CBS didn't want to air the episode. How did he get there? How much money did he win? Did he get to keep it? Did he cheat? I'm going to answer all of these questions and more…in today's 1980's Story. • Video https://tiff.net/events/the-luckiest-...
