hey good luck ... what kind of show is that?

Poor guy. Seven times chosen as a potential contestant and never got to play. I'm really sorry.

It's okay. He might be invited back on the show if they do it a second time.

Oh, but do you think they will, though? I have some concern about that, given what's been said about the ratings.

Anyway, do you think there's any chance you could ask Pat for me if he would be interested in doing an interview about his experience on the show to be posted here at TV.com? Even though he never made it on to play, he might still have some interesting insights to offer. I do edit Duel here at TV.com, so I could give the interview prime placement. If it helps, you can tell him that I work at the Burkhardt Branch of the Dayton Metro Library (I do --- I was the one who added the info to his page about him being mentioned in the staff newsletter.)

P.S.: Those other contestants were all scared of him. They were really scared, and if Pat chooses to go on other game show, the competition had better watch out.

Sure! I'll see if I can get in touch sometime soon. I'm sure he would be glad to do that.
