For contestants to appear on the show, they had to purchase an Illinois Instant Riches/Illinois' Luckiestscratch-off ticket from an Illinois Lottery retailer. Common for the lottery game shows of the 90s, if they uncovered three television set symbols on the ticket, the ticket was sent into a submission address, or redeemed physically at the nearest lottery office.

Players were randomly chosen from those tickets to be in the show's contestant pool, but only a certain number of them would be selected to play an on-stage game.

Rules (Illinois Instant Riches)[edit]

Fifteen contestants were in the contestant pool. Kollmeyer would spin a wheel that was hooked to lights above each contestant's seat. When the wheel stopped, the player whose seat was lit would play a game, in addition to winning a set of lottery tickets.

During a special remote broadcast from Arlington Race Course in 1997, the selection and bonus rounds were modified. Random numbers were drawn to choose contestants, pulled from the same kind of machine used for their lottery drawings. Also, the original bonus game, Knockout, was played in place of the current (at the time) game, Pot O'Gold, and modified its format to account for the returning champion.

Flamingo Fortune and Bonus Bonanza used the same wheel procedures, but with different ways to show whom the wheel picked, and with a different number of players. Flamingo Fortune used 30 players, in three groups of 10, and a TV screen that showed the person's name and face. Bonus Bonanza used 27 players, in three groups of 9, and used a spotlight that the wheel was hooked to.

Mini-games[edit]

Force Field[edit]

A magnet was suspended from the ceiling above a table of 10 magnets arranged in a circle. The magnets had corresponding money amounts: $1,000-$5,000, $8,000, $10,000, $12,000, $15,000, and $20,000. The pendulum was placed on a launcher locked on the outer ring of the table, and could be moved to any position along the ring.

Contestants released the pendulum, and it would swing, then become attracted to one of the magnets—the player won the amount of money associated with the magnet. That space was then replaced with a 'Wipe Out'.

The contestant then re-launched the pendulum—ideally, winning more money in the process. If the pendulum landed on 'Wipe Out', the contestant lost all of the money accumulated in the first swing.

At this point, another 'Wipe Out' was placed over the amount from swing #2 (or, if the contestant did 'Wipe Out', it was simply left alone) and another was placed on the lowest dollar amount still left on the table, bringing the maximum total number of 'Wipe Out' spaces to three. The largest dollar amount on the table was multiplied by 5.

The contestant could either choose to risk their money on one final swing or stop with what they had; hitting a 'Wipe Out' would cause them to go bankrupt, but hitting a money space added the money total to their total. The maximum payoff was $127,000.

Home Run (a.k.a. Touchdown, Fast Break, and Home Stretch)[edit]

Contestants were shown a board with 3 'players': an orange player, a blue player, and a yellow player. They were then shown a board of 12 numbered boxes, and asked to call out numbers, one at a time. Finding three of a color ended the game and awarded the contestant a cash prize — $1,000 (for the orange player), $10,000 (for the blue player), or a cash prize of up to $100,000 (for the yellow player). Before the game, the contestant would choose from one of four cards, each of which hid a different cash amount (one each of $25,000, $50,000, $75,000, and $100,000), to determine the jackpot value for the yellow player. If the yellow player finished first, the contestant won the jackpot value.

The game motif had a baseball theme, which was changed to a football theme for football season, basketball for basketball season, and a horse race theme for a special at a local race track. Host Goodman often made jokes about the players going on strike when the game changed themes. On a 1994 episode that marked the first time the game was played as Touchdown, he said, 'We used to have baseball players. They went on strike; we got rid of them! Boom! They're gone!'

For the first few episodes on which it was played, the orange player was worth only $1. It quickly became $1,000.

Flamingo Fortune renamed this game Grand Prix after the Daytona Grand Prix in NASCAR. There was a red, yellow, and blue car used. The red car earned the contestant $5,000 if it won the race. The yellow car earned the contestant $25,000 if it won the race. If the blue car, labeled 'Grand Prize', won the race, the contestant would choose from one of four cards (A, B, C, or D). Two cards hid $50,000; the other two hid $100,000.

NY Wired renamed it Saratoga after Saratoga Springs, home to a famous horse track, using red, yellow, and blue horses, much like the Home Stretch variant on IIR. The red horse won $10,000, yellow, $20,
