Alumni Fun was a weekly game show where two teams of three celebrity alumni members answered questions to win scholarship money for their university.
Gameplay[]
Two competing teams, each composed of three celebrity alumni members of a college, competed in a question and answer game with the winnings going to their school. All money was awarded by American Cyanamid.
On ABC, teams answered questions worth $50 and $100 on one of eight different subjects. The highest-scoring team earned an additional $1,000 returned to play again the following Sunday, up to four weeks. The runners up received another $500. Three-week champions’ winnings would be doubled.
On CBS, in each of the first two rounds, each player selected a category (each containing three questions) from the "tree of knowledge" (places, literature, arts, history, people, business, and sports). The team was then asked the three questions in that category (some of which were multi-part), and correctly answering at least two of them scored 100 points. In the third round, each team answered 50-point questions for 75 seconds. After the third round, the team with the highest score returned for the next round. Tournaments were held each season with the winners of the final match earning $15,000. Consolation prizes ranged from $1,000 for teams out scored in the preliminary matches to $10,000 for the runners up in the final match.
