Contestants Needed!

As you may have heard, Brett Somers, a regular on the classic game show "Match Game," has passed away. On tomorrow's BPP we're going to do a little tribute to her by playing our own rendition of The Match Game, with game show host Mike Pesca and a panel including luminaries like our own Alison Stewart and Luke Burbank. So what's missing? Contestants. The first two people to post a comment to this blog post saying they want to participate will be our contestants. The only rules are that you must be available via land line telephone tomorrow (Tuesday) between 8:00 and 8:40 AM Eastern time, and you must be over 18 years old. We'll contact the winners via email to work out the details. Ready...Set...Go!

Pick me! I loved her work on Match Game. Though her commentaries on the DVDs were a bit... odd.

It would be great to honor Brett's life with a Match Game redux. I'd love to play.

OK, I'll play. I'll probably make a fool of myself, but only a few people will hear it.
