I'm still not convinced. I worked with someone who worked at Barris at
the time this allegedly happened, and he said it did happen.
If it is true, it's possible the actual line was said, but not
broadcast, and the contestant was asked to change his answer.

As you will no doubt get barraged with, there is no such episode of The Newlywed
Game where a contestant answers "Where is the strangest place you have made
whoopee?" with "That would be the butt, Bob." Please see

information.

1) Randy Amasia has the whole CBS Gambit run.
2) David Zinkin qualifies as a contestant on his own show, Moronionaire.
3) CBS bought Zach's idea for the All New I'm Telling You Man.
4) I never drank any alcoholic beverages or smoked a cigarette in my life.
5) Jack Barry told a contestant to fuck off during the TJW syndie run.
6) Ray Combs kissed Vanna White.
and...
7) Winning Lines is NEW! NEW! NEW! (ducking)

We don't know if this is true or not.

This is an urban legend. This never happened.
And I'm beginning to wonder if we can consign "Casino" to the same category.
Unless somebody has actually seen an episode...

Not convinced of what? Shouldn't you want to be convinced something _did_
happen? No one has ever produced a tape of this alledged incident (outtake or
no), and the host himself says it never happened. Since Eubanks has absolutely
no reason to deny such a thing was said, it's a pretty reasonable indication to
me that the incident never happened.

Typical of urban legends, you think it happened, but it is based on second hand
information (and his information is probably second hand.)

But people still _swear_ they saw it broadcast (or more commonly swear a friend
of theirs actually saw it broadcast), which in and of itself makes the story
suspect, because such a thing would not make it to air. And of course, stories
vary. Sometimes it's a black man, or a black woman, or a hispanic man or woman.
It's from the 70's... or the 80's. No one can make up their mind.
You'd think after all these years, such an amazing tape would be making the
rounds with collectors, but so far... nothing.

He remembers seeing a lot of things we did.
Especially 5 and 6. This was back before Buzzr reran the unedited version so we didn't know exactly what Jack said, but he came close with "f*ck off" when we now know he said "Don't f*ck with me" to the audience.
Ray Combs did kiss one of the White sisters, only it was Valerie not Vanna.
So he knew this stuff long before we brought it up! Wow!!!!
And there was a NEW NEW NEW Winning Lines! I remember seeing it!

Yes, a contestant on The Newlywed Game did say "in the butt, Bob" in response to a question during an episode in the late 1970s. The question was about where the strangest place was that the contestant and their spouse had ever "made whoopee". The contestant's answer became infamous and has been referenced in popular culture over the years.
It's worth noting that the show's producers and network censors were not aware of the sexual connotations of the phrase "in the butt" at the time, and the show was not aired live, so the exchange was not immediately edited out. The incident led to changes in the show's production and increased scrutiny of game show content in general.
