a very special prize on this show.
You've won a lot of nice prizes
but one in particular for defeating five opponents.
If you defeat three more,
you're gonna win another one of these.
And this is what it looks like.
It's another brand-new car!
Buick's dramatic Century Limited,
the midsize personal luxury car
with a spacious, comfortable interior
and classic exterior.
The Century Limited by Buick.
[audience applauding]
That's a beauty, and I'll tell you something else.
It's gonna be a beauty starting on our very next show.
We're gonna have a very special event here on Tic Tac Dough.
It will be a tournament
conducted amongst eight very special people
that I've been talking a lot about.
Each one of them is over 80 years of age.
[audience applauding]
All of them are still active, curious and vital.
For example, meet Professor Riva Kelly.
She taught History at a Southern university.
Today, her avid interests are flowers,
plants and landscaping.
And her age: She is 96 years old.
[audience applauding]
As a matr ofthact, ey're all unusual,
and remember, they're all over 80.
We are gonna have a ball with them
because they are unique,
and they are fascinating and funny,
I can't tell you.
They're gonna compete against each other
in a Tic Tac Dough tournament,
the winner of which will receive $50,000 cash
plus another $50,000 cash
for his or her favorite charity.
Or a total of $100,000 in cash.
[audience applauding]
Now, believe me,
you've got to watch this tournament.
It will intrigue you. It will entertain you.
And everybody's gonna be talking about it.
And it's with our very next show that
that begins.
So, please, don't miss our next edition
of Tic Tac Dough.
Let's get back to... Mike, you ready?
I'm ready to go.
We have $4,500 in the pot,
four boxes remaining.
Let's shuffle for Mike and see what comes up.
Alright.
Symbols, Football, Disney and Latin America.
I think I'll try Symbols.
Why?
I'd like to win.
Alright, Mike.
Mike's gonna go for Symbols. That's strange.
$4,700 rests on a correct answer.
If you answer this right,
you'll have a grand total of $54,000.
And obviously, Mike,
you'll break the 50,000-dollar mark
Okay.
First, Mike, take a look at this symbol.
This is the official flag of one of the nations
of the world.
For a grand total of $54,000, name it.
Yes.
For Tic Tac Dough.
[audience applauding]
Mike, I keep saying this over and over again
as I've done with other big winners on Tic Tac Dough.
And if you get tired of me saying,
"Hey, Mike, congratulations," you just tell me.
I love it.
There's something about that that has a nice ring, right?
to you, Mike,
for me to tell you, "Hey, Mike, congratulations,"
or to tell you that now, Mike, you have $54,000?
Which one of those do you like best?
Do you?
I kinda thought you might.
Thanks again, Wink.
And, of course, you get a chance to play
our big Bonus Game and try to beat the Dragon.
You've done it before,
but he's beaten you a few times, too.
Yeah. A few times.
It was.
Thank you.
Do you play this at home quite often?
Good.
than you thought
when you were actually here?
If you left out Football for a category, it wasn't.
In other words, what you'd like to do
is pick your own subjects, right?
Right. I've been practicing on quarterbacks, so...
Yes, sir.
Susan, we have $250 for each of those tie games.
You played two. That means you leave us
That's great.
Our best wishes.
Thank you for being a marvelous contestant.
Thank you.
Suzan Reiner, everybody.
[audience applauding]
Okay, Mike. Get it over here.
Here we are again.
Mike says he's gonna put him away,
and he's not gonna take long.
Let's see if he lives up to that,
lives up to that billing.
Behind the numbers, Mike, are various amounts
of money and a Dragon.
All you have to do is reach $1,000 or more,
and you win the prize package.
Now, let me... Tell you what, we call this
our Extravagance Package, if you will.
We're gonna give you extravagant gifts
that you wouldn't normally go out and buy for yourself.
So, Jay, let me ask you: What extravagant gifts
do we have for this handsome devil?
(Jay) Well, first, Mike,
you'll make an elegant entrance into your home
as you walk through this Pease Ever-Strait Door.
Handcrafted glass, energy-saving steel construction,
so good you don't need a storm door.
And next, go on an extravagant treasure hunt
with White's Metal Detector,
featuring ground extrusion balance
to help you locate coins, jewelry and precious metals
while excluding mineralized soil.
From White's Electronics.
And the sky won't be the limit with your new telescope.
The Tasco Telescope on sliding tripod
zooms from 20 to 40 power.
Affords wide 87 1/2-foot field of view
or scans horizons with four-power finderscope.
From Tasco Sales, Incorporated.
And finally, Mike, to complete this package,
we're going to add the word efficiency
to our extravagant package
by giving you your very own personal computer.
The Apple II.
Just connect it to your TV set,
and you're ready to program for recording
personal family records, computer games,
artwork or music.
And it evens helps the kids with their math.
It's the same computer that runs our Tic Tac Dough Board.
The Apple II Home Computer.
And, Mike, the exciting extravagant package is worth,
in cash and prizes, almost $3,500.
[audience applauding]
But that Apple Computer does not have a Dragon
associated with it, I can promise you.
Remember, avoid the monster, or you lose everything.
Get the Tic and the Tac, and it's an automatic win
of the Dough for you.
Let's move them around, cover them up on the Board.
We're not gonna know where anything is gonna come up.
You have been very, very unlucky at times at this game, Mike.
Yeah. That's alright.
I'm gonna be here some more, so I'll get it.
He says that with such knowing power.
Let's see.
Let's just start with Number 3 right up here
Alright. Number 3.
Little three. Top right-hand corner of the Board.
Tic.
[audience applauding]
And all three of those times, you've lost.
I hope you change your luck this time.
Let's go to Arden, your lovely wife out here
on our lovely deck.
She's not gonna make it.
I'm not gonna listen to her this time.
Are you gonna leave it up to him this time?
do again,
I'm gonna do 6 again.
Yeah, I am.
That's right.
That's right. Uh-hmm.
And lost some very nice prizes.
with it. Alright.
Let's find out.
Behind Number 6, under Tic, money or perhaps Tac.
You got it.
[audience applauding]
Let me ask you this:
Where was the Dragon? Where was the Dragon?
It obviously was not behind the number
that's been beating you every time.
It was not behind the 6. Tell me where it is.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it wasn't behind Number 9.
Number 9 first.
Then we'll look at the rest of the Board
and expose all the money.
$150.
Where are you, big bad guy?
Hey. There he is.
Behind Number 4.
Far away.
Way far away.
Thank God he was away over there,
and you didn't find him.
You got it with two calls, Tic and the Tac.
And you won the money and those nice prizes.
Things you wouldn't buy for yourself.
And all of those goodies come out to a grand total now
of $57,500 in cash and merchandise.
[audience applauding]
Put it there, partner.
I wish.
Hey, we'll be right back. Please don't leave us.
