Quotes 

• Regis Philbin : As a matter of fact, Robby is wearing his lucky shorts, which uh, brought you some good luck at an NBA- not that I, not that I SAW them or anything! But he TELLS me he's wearing his lucky shorts! And they came in handy at an NBA basketball game.

  Robby Roseman : Yeah, I actually, uh, beat an NBA player, and won a sky box for twenty of my friends.

  Regis Philbin : Is that in the free throw contest?

  Robby Roseman : Yeah, something like that.

  Regis Philbin : Good for you. All right, Robby, well let's see if they can bring you good luck tonight. Okay?

  [...] 

  Regis Philbin : [moments later, after Robby gets the $100 question wrong]  Robby is gone before he's here! Take those "lucky" shorts off and BURN them!

• Regis Philbin : What would you do if you won the million?

  Tom Colletta : I don't know. What's liposuction going for these days?

• Tom Colletta : [on the $8,000 question]  Final answer.

  [pause as his answer is locked in; Regis looks up at him] 

  Tom Colletta : I'm a fat man, Regis! My heart can't take it!

  [audience laughter/cheering] 

  Regis Philbin : I'm just trying to help you sweat off a few pounds!

  [more laughter] 

  Regis Philbin : You're right, it's kb for $8,000!

• Regis Philbin : [after Robby Roseman leaves with no prize money]  Well, I mean... that just goes to show you, it's only easy if you know the answers. I don't even know what to say; we've never even prepared for anything like that. Y'know, they say elephants never forget. Robby's never gonna forget elephants, I don't think.
