Nigerian And Girlfriend Loses $800,000 Dollars In A Tv Game Show(wrongfully) by soloqy: 9:18pm On Dec 25, 2010
Gabe Okoye and girlfriend Brittany Mayti will get another chance to win some cash.

The couple, who lost $800,000 on FOX's "Million Dollar Money Drop" on Monday have been invited back to the game show to try their hand at winning yet again.

"Unfortunately the information our research department originally obtained from 3M regarding when Post-it notes were first sold was incomplete," Jeff Apploff, "Million Dollar Drop's" executive producer said in a statement to Access on Thursday. "As a result of new information we have received from 3M, we feel it is only fair to give our contestants, Gabe and Brittany, another shot to play 'Million Dollar Money Drop' even though this question was not the deciding question in their game.

"The revised information regarding the Post-it is as follows: the product was originally tested for sale in four cities under the name 'Press 'N Peel' in 1977, sold as 'Post-its' in 1979 when the rollout introduction began and sold nationwide in 1980. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the viewers who brought this to our attention, and we're thrilled to give Gabe and Brittany the opportunity to return to play the game," he added.

I think they should be given their money. There is no guarantee they will get up to a fraction of their earlier winnings the second time.
