I am watching with my wife the show Million Dollar Money Drop television show. A couple had this question .... Which US President is on the dime? Is it Lincoln, Kennedy, Jefferson, or Roosevelt. The couple put all $1 million dollars on ........ Jefferson!!! The woman was positive it was Jeffeson. Her husband had second thoughts (He knew Lincoln was on the penny at least).
How would you like her making change for you.
My wife has just finished laughing for 5 minutes at the wife's response to losing all $1 million dollars on her answer. She said, "She just made my night."
I hope none of you got it wrong.

Ha, When I was in kindergarten, Winged Liberty (Mercury) was on the dime and Striding Liberty was on the half. Yes, tired old abe and tired old Jefferson and just-as-tired old Washington were on the Cent, Nickel, and half. There was no dollar coin back then.

Its the first of 7 questions , they fell at the first hurdle spectacularly.

Ya know, I'm not sure any question for a million dollars is "easy." Unless you are a billionaire and that is chump change.

Good thing you weren't asked what denomination coin Washington is on!

Not likely. They would have had to get the next six questions correct and they get progressively harder. Very few contestants win the million bucks.

No couple has ever won the million , last night's winner's took 300k.I think RogerRamjet got it spot on , the wife railroaded that guy speaking over him and dictating what answer was to be given.As delightful as it was to watch i also think the guy will have a hard time getting past that.

Huh? What's that supposed to mean?
