How many women did Richard Dawson kiss?

Someone ought to figure this out. It would make a great bit of trivia! If you watched this show back in the '70s, like I did, you probably thought it was hilarious how Dawson always kissed (on the mouth, yet) every single woman who appeared on the show. Young, old, fat, thin, blind, crippled or crazy, it made no difference to Dawson. He did more than 3,500 shows as the host of the Feud, so clearly he kissed a lot of women in his day. I'd love to know exactly how many!

That's how he met his wife, Gretchen Johnson. She was a contestant and he kissed her. After the episode was over, he struck up a conversation with her and asked her out.

Just saw the Batman episode. Lee Meriwether gave him a kiss on the forehead and both cheeks for the female members of her family. Then she kissed him on the lips for herself. Richard went beet red. LOL.

He kissed them all. I remember one episode where he kissed an old woman (I think they said she was ninety). When he backed off, she reached out and pulled him in for another. It was hysterical.
