8. Merv Griffins Crosswords-Letters of Discharge
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q14QQtIRqc To her advantage, this three-letter clue is as ambiguous as anything seen on an actual crossword puzzle. To her disadvantage, everything else. Is it the fact that contestant Carolyn cant eyeball what is and is not a three-letter word? The seeming lack of logic behind her answer in the firstplace? The intrinsic hilarity of the word banana? Maybe its just Carolyns reaction after she so confidently buzzed in. Many game show contestants would have indulged in their mistakes for attention, but she simply shrugged it off while host Ty Treadway struggled to keep a straight face.
