'OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS' COMING TO KC A new ABC game show called "Opportunity Knocks" on KMBC-TV9 will highlight a family from Weatherby Lake on Thursday, September 4th from 4-7 p.m. The special preview is one of only 14 stops scheduled nationwide. The concept of the show is that a crew of 150 will set up an entire game show in the front yard of a contestant with the audience made up of friends and neighbors. The Moratz family of Weatherby Lake will play for a chance to win prizes ranging from gift cards and i-Pods, to Blu-ray DVD players and an HD plasma television. Several local radio listeners will also be invited on stage for a chance to win prizes. KMBC is encouraging Kansas Citians to bring their entire family for the big block party that will include the show, food, music, giveaways and more. The Moratz address and travel directions can be found at http://www.abcopportunityknocksmobiletour.com/kans_local.html. �Opportunity Knocks� will premier on KMBC, Tuesday, September 23rd at 7:00 p.m. Ashton Kutcher is the Executive Producer.
