Anyone planning on going to the final showings of Millionaire before it goes dark? I'll be up in the OC tomorrow and will try to get away from work for the last few showings.

All righty, well if anyone shows up, I'll be wearing my 1,000 point winner hat and a white America's Finest City 1/2 Marathon T-shirt.

No worries Christiii. I had fun anyways.

I showed up for the 1PM showing and was able to catch the rest of them, though it was quite crowded. Tons of regulars there. I met one in the queue and she invited me up to hang out with the Millionaire regulars in the top row. I was on the board twice, getting as high as 4th during one of the breaks, but missing the same question the contestant got wrong.

On the 2nd show, I got up to 2nd on the board during a break, and that's the highest I'd ever get. The other shows were fun to see. The regulars were pretty rowdy and enthusiastic. I believe it was at the 4PM show where one contestant made it to the Million point question before losing (How many Earth days does it take Mercury to orbit the sun?) It would have been really nice to see him win.

Well, even though I wasn't much of a regular, I was really glad that I was able to make it into the hotseat back in November. If I never made it, I'm sure I would have kicked myself for it. Good memories and best wishes to the cast as they move on from here.

Wow! I was completely unaware that it was closing! Are they putting the "Rockin Roll Roller coaster" there like I had heard many of Rumor? If so it will be worth it! I really liked the Millionaire show and so did my kids it will be missed!
