| WWTBAM - Brian Fodera Llamas Out Brian Fodera had a very short stay in the hotseat on January 20, 2000 (the show after Dan Blonsky won $1,000,000) and became the second person on the American WWTBAM to leave with nothing. For those who don't know, the term "llama" came from Robby Roseman, who was a contestant on WWTBAM in August of 1999. He was the first contestant on the show to leave with nothing. His question: "Hannibal crossed the Alps using what animals?" A. Rhinoceri B. Elephants C. Llamas D. Chihuahuas He used a 50/50, then guessed C, hence the term "llama" or "llama out". The answer was B, by the way. Robby would eventually bounce back, taking home nearly $500,000 by finishing 23rd in the 2006 World Series of Poker Main Event. And don't feel bad for Brian either, he would eventually come back and win $16,000 on a WWTBAM Zero Dollar Winners show on May 20, 2001. Not as much as ol' Robby won in poker, but he redeemed himself nonetheless. :) http://members.tripod.com/loogaroo/gameshow/wwtbam/jan00/bfodera.html http://members.tripod.com/loogaroo/gameshow/wwtbam/august/rroseman.html Tags: wwtbam millionaire owned loser 100 dollar question llama funny dumb stupid blackbirds plums regis philbin brian fodera |
