Overview

Megabucks Giveaway was a game show that aired on Michigan's WDIV-TV from April 13, 1991 to September 14, 1996. It was developed by the Michigan Lottery. The hosts included Chuck Gaidica from WDIV, Aggie Usedly from the Michigan Lottery, and Detroit radio personality Jim Harper, who occasionally substituted for Gaidica. Megabucks Giveaway was an updated version of the Michigan Lottery's previous game show, Fame and Fortune, with a few new elements. Contestants were chosen by submitting their non-winning instant-win tickets for a random drawing.
