Price is Right- Why always choose the 2nd showcase?

Who wants a friggin' new car in the first showcase when the second one could contain matching riding lawmowers and a giant slip and slide!!!!

i like that game where they have a new car and the contestant sh!ts in his/her pants, then they have two other new cars after that, but then the game is so impossible that no one ever wins

I like it when the people are such poor white trash that they have no idea what the value of something is, at all. I remember watching one where she picked the crappy showcase and she guessed like $200k...and all that was in it was some furniture and a bunch of household junk. You could almost see bob cringe when she said her price.

You auto lose if you go over on the showcase right? Because I remember thinking it'd be funny if the other guy had put in $1.

Its whoever is closer when they go over if I remember correctly, so 1$ would have worked.

The lady was seriously like 150K over the showcase value, it would have been adding insult to injury to go with $1. I'm pretty sure the guy didn't do that just to be nice...but I would probably have been pretty tempted to load some insult onto that injury right there. There weren't even that many assets...I think it was the sh|tty showcase with some furniture and other crap like that. The big piece was a vacation or something. Apparently a trip to europe costs in the neighborhood of 120,000 dollars these days.

Yeah, but if you're really elite, you can bid on the sucky showcase and end up winning both.

Always go with the showcase that has the theme to it. If it's just a bunch of prizes, it's the crappy one. If it's "A MAYAN ADVENTURE!!!", where all the hot models that Bob is doing are wearing jungle outfits, you're guaranteed some good stuff.

My favorite part of that show is the same part that was my favorite when I was 6: That big wheel they spin and try to hit $1. That thing is awesome.

Rarely, usually a very hard game when they do late night specials.

I've been a fan since 1972 or thereabouts and I think the game you are talking about is the one where you have to guess the right price of car 1 with three prices and then car 2 with four prices and then car 3 with 5 prices. They all seem to be closely grouped and that makes it about impossible to win.

I always get a kick out of the losers who cannot fathom that a jar of peanut butter costs 2.00 and you need to buy at least 9-10 of them to win the Bullseye! game.

"Bob, I'll take 27 of the Contact lens Cleaning solutions (at 7.50 a pop) . That should put me right at 20.00, right?"

(Bob soils himself and continues to berate the old hag from Mishiwaka with the " I neutered my husband" slogan on her flabby assed t-shirt)
