One of the last newscasts to feature Stan Turner on KSTP. Turner still remained at Hubbard Broadcasting through 2002 on ANC. Turner and Kirstin Lindquist (of KARE-TV) were teamed up to do weekends in 1988. Lindquist left KSTP in the summer of 1990 weeks after this broadcast.
Several commercials in this post including a Twin Cities Live commercial with former Sports broadcaster Bob Bruce.

Bowling for Dollars from 1977 with host Tom Ryther (FULL EPISODE!) http://tcmedianow.com/2009/05/22/445/ http://tcmedianow.com/2009/05/22/445/#comments Fri, 22 May 2009 20:56:28 +0000 admin http://tcmedianow.com/?p=445 ]]> Found and restored for generations to come.  A 1977 episode of Bowling for Dollars.  Bowling for Dollars was a game show produced and aired locally on KSTP-TV in the 1970s.  The premise was simple enough, contestants bowl for a jackpot and prizes.  I understand from individuals that worked on the show, it was taped on Sunday morning about 6am and then aired on Thursday and Friday nights.  Bowling for Dollars like Bozo was a regional “franchise” program, every market had their own version with a general format.
