** 1987: Allen Kayser was conveying the subject "Things You Count With". It sounded to Dick that he had said "In your mind", which was illegal. The contestant got the last subject with 22 seconds to spare... but Dick silenced everything and they went to break. Returning from break, Dick quieted the music down and had a long talk with Allen and the contestant. We learned that Allen was from Colorado. Dick noted that if he had said "and your mind", it would have been accepted. The judges checked the tapes several times and heard a "d" every time, so the contestant won $25,000.

Shortly after ''The $25,000 Pyramid'' began its three-month return on CBS, Kelly made it to the Winner's Circle having already won $31,100. She got the top category "Things You Abandon" after Earl Holliman said "A basketed baby", but the audience cheered so loud that no one could hear the illegal clue buzzer. When the show came back, Dick explained that Earl's clue was a made-up expression which negated Kelly's $10,000 win. Her opponent bested her score with $800 to her $750, seemingly ending her run. Fast forward ten weeks, and Kelly is invited back. She announces her total as $41,100, meaning the judge overturned the loss. She eventually won $60,050, ending her run on Monday of the final week.
