Could North Salem be home to a new millionaire?

Check it out: Tomorrow, Erik Aurigemma of North Salem will be on Who Wants to be a Millionaire.
Erik, 20, graduated North Salem High in 2005. He’s studying political science and computer science at Tufts University, but is spending his junior year abroad at Durham University in northern England.
He talked this week to Journal News reporter Elizabeth Ganga from Britain. (Here’s a link to her story.)
It was really nerve-wracking actually, playing the game. I didn’t feel that nervous until I sat down in the chair.
The episode was filmed in the middle of August and will be broadcast tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. on ABC (that’s Channel 7 here in New York). Funny thing is, because he’s in England, he can’t watch the show; his brothers are trying to figure out how to link him up via computer to watch it while they gather at their home.
He told the Millionaire folks that if he won big, he’d pay off his college tuition, buy a small apartment and purchase a new car. His dream job? To work for the FBI.
Cross your fingers for Erik and check out this spot on Friday to see if he won, if you can’t watch…
