If you probably know what happened 20 years ago this week, May 19th, 1984. Michael Larsen was a contestant on "Press Your Luck" in which he goes for Big Bucks. He won a lot of money with a grand total of $110,237.:eek: It was his all-time champion in the history of "Press Your Luck". Do you anything about Michael Larsen and the Big Bucks scandal 20 years ago? Go to this site:

Since I was watching a documentry called "Big Bucks: The 'Press Your Luck' Scandal" on the old GSN last year, Michael Larsen died of throat cancer back in 1999, that was 5 years ago.:( That was sad (RIP). He was once interviewed on "Good Morning America" back in 1994 talking about playing "Jeopardy!".
