CLOSE, BUT NO CIGAR ($94,000 – $106,000+)

“Close, but no cigar is a common saying signifying someone nearly achieved something – but ultimately failed, in the end. Ever wonder where the saying originated? Well, in the 1920’s, travelling carnivals made their way into towns and cities across North America. The games they offered were targeted towards adults and were well-known to be particularly hard to win – but people tried anyhow. Those who managed to win did not receive stuffed animals. Rather, cigars were handed out as prizes. When a player failed to toss a ring over a bottle or a ball missed its target, the person running the game would say … “Close, but no cigar!” What does that have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role? Absolutely nothing!
