	High Rollers
		Trebek would read a question, and the first contestant to ring in correctly had the option of rolling the dice or passing them to their opponent, with that option going to the opponent if they answered incorrectly.
		After Lee or Stewart rolled the two dice – let’s say an eight was rolled – they had the option of which numbers to take off the board, from 1 through 9, to equal their roll of eight.
		A couple of the 1978-80 episodes are traded around, however, especially the finale, in which Alex says a few things so completely offbeat one wonders if he’d had a glass of wine or two before the taping.
