Price Is Wrong
Makes me wonder what other games can be "rigged" whenever they feel like it. . .
The Price is Wrong!
Posted Jul 29th 2008 12:58PM by TMZ Staff
A rigged game kinda derailed "The Price is Right" last week.
Our spies tell us the show's famous Plinko game had been pre-set to hit the $10,000 slot every time for a show commercial, but some bonehead forgot to reset it.
During the next taping, a contestant began playing Plinko and racked up $30,000 when producers finally realized what was happening. They stopped tape, fixed the game (actually un-fixed it) and the woman went on to win $3,000.
The show still gave her the $30,000 as a fabulous parting gift.
But you won't see any of it on the show. It was all edited out.

Re: Price Is Wrong
How did they come up with the name Plinko?

Re: Price Is Wrong
i don't see what the problem is
they rigged it for a commercial
they made a mistake and still gave the woman the $30,000
i watch the show regularly and there have been many screw-ups on the games over the years. Every time they have screwed up, they have given the contestant the prize they were playing for

Re: Price Is Wrong
they should have just eaten the other $20,000 rather than have this publicity, IMO.
I'm glad they gave her the money tho!
