The Pasapalabra jackpot reached 2,194,000 euros in the delivery issued on Monday, February 27. It is the largest amount of money that has been accumulated in the history of the program since its premiere in 2000. Antena 3 recalls that the record was 2,190,000 euros, a prize that Eduardo Benito won in 2006.
Roberto Leal spoke at the beginning of the format with the contestants, who shared how they felt about such a figure. Orestes Barbero confessed that he had “a special nerve in his body” when he saw her. Rafa Castaño expressed: “It’s like one’s papers fall out.”
The presenter asked the Sevillian what he would do if he won the jackpot. He assured that he did not know, before which his partner talked about a seafood platter. “There are so many things that could be done with this… Not just for yourself, but for your relatives or your children, if you have them, because it’s a lot of money. I don’t know what I would do, but I’ll tell you if I take it with me” , shared the Andalusian participant.
Rafa was about to complete the Pasapalabra donut in the February 27 delivery. Orestes stayed ahead of him for part of the test, but stumbled on the tee by saying “clod” instead of “floe.” He finished his first round with 22 hits and one miss.
The opponent from Burgos took longer to reach the top. When passing it, he had 21 letters in green and no errors. Castaño did not stop and added three more hits with words that he had left pending. Manu Baqueiro, who was on his team, appeared on the screen with his hands on his head when he saw that only one answer separated him from the boat.
Barbero tried to catch up with his rival, but made a second mistake with one of the meanings of the word “moloso” and finished with 23 hits. “Luck, but send me to the chair”, he told Rafa between laughs.
The contestant who was still aspiring to win the jackpot heard again the only definition he had left, which was in the r: “Last name of the economist who in 1960 published the book The stages of economic growth.” The participant tried his luck with Redondo, but the author of said work is Walt Whitman Rostow.
