Tate Graduate Continues Run On ‘Who Wants To Be a Millionaire’

December 29, 2018

Tate High School’s 2017 valedictorian and current University of West Florida student Samantha Brown appeared Friday night on “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire” and will return to continue play Monday night.

Sam Brown turned to her mom Clarissa Brown as a lifeline for help about the total numbers of squares found on the standard Scrabble board. They correctly answered 225 to reach the $10,000 level.

“Who Wants To Be a Millionaire” airs weekdays on WEAR 3.

    Congratulations!! They announced her as a UWF student but didn’t mention Tate. So, she’s a real Cantonment resident! You go, girl!

    Ms. Brown, you were very refreshing and enjoyable for us to watch last night.
    Wishing you continued success in answering the sometimes brain-twisting questions on Millionaire.
    You are a Great Example of how far a young person can go and how much they can accomplish when they put the effort and dedication into a good path.
    God Bless and Thank you and the teachers at Tate High.
    Very nice to see GOOD news.
