Lansing Woman Competing on Who Wants to be a Millionaire

My wife Lori and I watch the show 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' just about every weeknight on WILX-TV 10.  We both love the show so much and try to answer as many trivia questions as we possibly can during the half hour show.

A local Lansing woman by the name of Patricia Jurado has waited 17 years to hear the words "Is that your final answer?"

Patricia will get her chance tonight and part of Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. on WILX.  Competing on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" has been on her bucket list since the show premiered in 1999 when Regis Philbin was the host.

Jurado grew up playing board games, such as Monopoly and Parcheesi.  She appeared on a 1977 episode of "The Match Game" when she was 19.  She took home $12,500.  Here's more from the Lansing State Journal.
