While he said not many of his friends from Harvard happened to see him on TV, his girlfriend Angie M. Boyce ’03 shared the experience with him.
“It was really exciting,” said Boyce, who accompanied Golder to the show’s taping. “I was sitting in the second row. I could’ve answered some of the questions, but some of them I would’ve had no idea. The questions are a lot harder now than they were when Regis was hosting.”
Boyce said the atmosphere at the studio made her unexpectedly anxious.
“I was nervous for him—I didn’t really get nervous until right before he got on. Scott wasn’t nervous at all until the very morning of, and then I think it hit him,” Boyce said.
Golder said he is still waiting for a worthy cause before spending his $16,000.
“I don’t want to just go and blow it on something,” Golder said.
