WHERE DREAMS COME TRUE >>>
When I was a wee one, my heroes were not Roger Staubach, James Bond or even H. R. Puffinstuff. No, I looked up to Ted Simmons, a science professor from Orlando, Florida, and Milly Cornwall, a "stewardess" from Wichita, Kansas. I knew little about them; Ted had a beloved coin collection, and Milly was an avid tennis player. But I absorbed their essence.
They were the few, the proud, the contestants on Match Game. RIP Gene Rayburn!
I'm told other kids frolicked outside on swings, swam in pools and jumped their bikes over their friends. I even think I saw a few of them from my window while I was immersing myself in $20,000 Pyramid, Break the Bank, Password, Joker's Wild and my beloved Family Feud.
This was showbiz: microphones, funny banter, flashing lights and lovely parting gifts.
I wanted so bad to be on one of those shows. To be that young boy from Enumclaw whom could one day grow up and stand next to Bert Convy.
Ah, but life is such a cruel bitch.
Now I hear Family Feud will be in the area in January looking for contestants. And the dream is once again sparked. Could I get the chance to trade witty banter with host Steve Harvey and win $100,000 in cold hard cash?
Then I remember I have to bring family members.
I'm out.

My family and I have a audition for Family Feud on Sunday Jan. 15th at 4:00pm. And I was wondering if were selected do you pay for our airfare to be on the show. Thank-You. Sincerely, Cynthia Veidt

If selected, the show will pay for you and your family to fly to LA for the taping. Good luck!

Sorry Cynthia, I meant to say Orlando. The show is filmed in Florida at universal studios Orlando.
