Pasapalabra marked a historic milestone again this Thursday on Antena 3. After more than a year of confrontations and 307 consecutive installments, Rosa Rodríguez managed to complete the Rosco and win the biggest jackpot in the history of the contest, valued at 2,716,000 euros, surpassing the previous record reached in 2023The outcome arrived after a duel of extremely high tension against Manu, with whom Rosa has faced off since November 2024 in one of the longest and most followed rivalries of the program. The contestant resolved the last word just three seconds from the end, culminating a trajectory of constancy, nerves, and precision that kept millions of viewers on edge.
Rosa Rodríguez, who accumulated 307 programs and had achieved 96 victories and 91 draws, had already accumulated 168,600 euros before winning the jackpot. Of Argentine origin and settled in Galicia since childhood, she currently works as a university professor of Spanish for international students. Trained in English Philology and with several master's degrees, she came to the contest encouraged by her mother, without imagining that she would end up starring in one of the most remembered moments of the format. The decisive moment arrived with the last question of the Rosco: “Surname of the American football player who, in 1968, was chosen NFL most valuable player by the AP agency”, asked Roberto Leal when there were only seconds left to the end. With great precision, Rosa Rodríguez answered: “Morrall, Earl”, proclaiming herself the winner of the historic biggest jackpot to date.
