Aww man he was so young too only 63. I remember watching Press Your Luck when I was a kid. I remember laughing at those whammies. For some reason I thought he was older than that none the less may you Rest In peace wherever you are.

I've been saying this on a lot of message boards devoted to nostalgia, and I'll say it here, too. My happiest memories in my middle school and high school years involved me watching Peter at work. First there was HIT MAN, which I wasn't sure I'd like until I saw the premiere episode. I was hooked! What a great idea to have it look like those hand held LED games I loved to play. Then six months later comes PRESS YOUR LUCK. Peter was just having the time of his life. I'm going to miss his sense of humor, most of all.
