Priest wins 250.000
Fr. Bill Matheny had been trying to get on the trivia show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire for 17 years. This last summer, he finally fulfilled his dream, promising that he’d donate his winnings to St. Francis of Assisi Catholic School in St. Alban, West Virginia, which he attended as a child. Using all three of his lifelines, he successfully won $250,000 before the show ran out of time.

Priests on game shows? 
More evangelization, "new in method"? Although, I'll say, after the terrible floods that hit West Virginia this past summer, I'm sure this is a great lift for that area of the U.S. where Catholic presence is pretty thin.
