Nope.

Ah!!!

Thanks for the PM.

Make that mistake once before when McMahon and Johnnie Carson were doing a riddle with numbers.

LOL!  The numbers were 240, 300, 380, 500.

Didn't know WTH it was.

Sorry Luis!  I thought we had established 78... are looking for the next number in sequence after that?

No, you're right.
