This is reminding me of the guy on Tic Tac Dough (Thom McKee - thanks google) who won 38 times, amassing over $300k in 1980.

I'm glad you posted that. I remember that from when I was a kid. We watched that every day to see if he would keep winning. I've tried to convince my family that a guy won forever on that show, but nobody else seemed to remember it. They had almost convinced me that I was making it up. Thanks for the proof. Wasn't he in the Air Force or something like that? I could be wrong on that one, but I do remember that guy winning a ton of money. $300,000 dollars on a game show in 1980 is pretty impressive.
