Watched this every night back then with my parents.
I remember how stunned everyone was A) that he was the first to finally win the million and B) the way that went down with him calling his dad.
awesome stuff

“Hi dad. I don’t really need your help, I just want to let you know that I’m gonna win the million dollars.”

Imagine how much of an idiot had he done that stunt of "phone a friend" and telling his Dad he was going to win a million, then go out and miss the question.

I did the Disney Who Wants to be a Millionaire in Disney. I go to the million dollar round. Wound up winning some Millionaire buttons and a Millionaire hat.

My wife and I are both trivia nuts and watched it religiously during the first couple of years. We both were convinced they kept dumbing it down to get a winner. His run was the only one we both knew every answer to as soon as we read the question. Some of the questions would be harder for someone in their 20s or 30s today because of a couple of older pop culture references.

I watched it and my thought at the time that he had a pretty easy road to the million dollars. I was a regular watcher of the show and there was always a question or two that I had come down to a 50/50 before the player stopped.
But, in this case, the questions seemed easier to me.

Yep. Laying in the living room with my family. I was 8. Remember him calling his pops to tell him.
