Deal or NO DEAL


So my Sweet friend Kim, auditioned for Deal or NO Deal... and she made it through the 15,000 and the 12 hour wait and she is in the final 20.... well i get a call from her and she wants me to be her friend on the "mock" taping of the show.... i say not only yea but HELL YA!!! but i had never seen the show before... i watched it last nigh and now i am a believer!!!!! it is so much fun.... so we go to the audition.... the "supporters" that she brought with her was her Dad Corey Ericksen, Her sister Jamie and her husband Steve, her brother Shane, her mother in law Susie and me.... her husband Goose couldn't be there he was on a school trip!!!! but oh mama was it fun..... ok so my role in the "supporters" was i was the token NO DEAL girl..... i loved it..... NO DEAL NO DEAL NO DEAL!!!! 
So there we all are in there screaming and yelling as we are playing the game.... and we get all the way to the end.... there were 6 cases that we were playing with... and we get to the end and there are two cases left... a case for $100 and a case for $500,000, the banker offer on the table was $250,000, i like a horrible friend tell her that she could freaking double it.... Kim... NO DEAL... NO DEAL!!! you don't need his petty 250k.... (boy was i wrong) we end up with the 100 bucks... sorry Kim!!!1 but she loves me anyways and it was just for fakes....
so then... the interviewer come out of left field with.... ok i have to level with you... the producers have gotten a million tapes and they told us that we have to cut it down by half... in my hands (insert two cases with a one and a two on them) i have a yes on one and a no on the other... yes means that the producers will see your tape no means your cut... a stunned silence falls over the crowd... the number 1 case is picked and eternally slow case turn...
....

and

YES!!!!! we freaked out.... two drops of pee came out and we freaked our freaks!!!! it was one of the funnest nights in all of my life!!!! then the downer... look for our phone call in the next year..... LAME!!!! but at least we had a good freaking time... and i think that Kim will get it over most people!!!! 
Good Luck Kim... i love you and i really think that you are going to make it on!!!

Erin.. This This is Jayci Chino.. I married Tomas Chino.. :) and we got on the deal or no deal callbacks too.. At the mock trial I walked with 299 grand! Damn wish it was real.. and then I picked the yes case too.. We think that both cases were yes and they just wanted too see how you would react! And ya the waiting around for the call just sucks! and they could never call which sucks but we had a blast waiting in line and going to the Hilton :) I had my daughter dress up in a cute dress and she had a little silver suitcase with a number on it as well so we shall see, I heard they may be taking five people from Ut so hopefully we will see you in LA!!
