Game show sketch (already in progress) where players must either add or multiply two numbers to mark the answer on a number board. First one to mark enough numbers to make the points of an equilateral triangle on the board wins.
I love the girl’s expression when Cynthia tells her what she’s won.

I once heard that this one kid was so nervous he was clutching the triangle humps very tightly and he wound open breaking them because he was pressing so hard due to his nervousness that they broke.
Heck man, I’d have probably wound up doing the same thing. Why clutch them? The heat from the neon lamps under the triangles actually feels good on the cold clammy hands.

50 bucks with a CD player circa 1988?!?!?! Not only were CD players that size not around yet, but they were still VERY expensive.

It’s probably a collector’s item, now, if it hasn’t been worn.
It’d have more resale value, now, as compared to, say, a Walkman.
Carmen Sandiego was …
Carmen Sandiego was on PBS palmer, they were able to give away NOT ONLY a sweater- but a hat, a globe, and CD-ROMs.
$50 was enough to give away a portable CD player.

These companies were cheapskates back then. Why not give money to the winner and the sweaters/t-shirts to both players just for showing up?
