In 1999, Michael Shutterly has only one definite plan for the $500,000 he won on ABCʹs new hit game show. “The kids want to go to Disney World,” said the 46-year-old lawyer and father of three boys from Richmond, Virginia, who won the money Wednesday on “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire.” ABC claimed it was the biggest cash award ever given to a game-show contestant in television history. Shutterly, who won $49,000 a decade ago as a contestant on “Jeopardy,” passed up a chance to double his winnings when he wasnʹt sure about a music trivia question. “It just hasnʹt quite registered yet,” he said. “It will take a couple of days until it settles in.” Shutterly answered a series of questions to build up his winnings, earning $500,000 because he correctly identified Pope John Paul I as Albino Luciani. He was offered one last question and a chance to win a million. But if he got it wrong, Shutterlyʹs winnings would be sliced to $32,000. For the final query, Shutterly had to identify the initial hard rock Grammy Award winner when the music awards show established the category in 1989. The winner, Jethro Tull, was controversial because it doesnʹt really play hard rock. Presented with four choices, Shutterly said he felt certain of only one thing — that the winner wasnʹt Jethro Tull. Wisely, he chose to pass on the question and leave with $500,000.
