Comments

*Two Pricing Games were won today. With Plinko, it's more like three was won. The current record for all Pricing Game is 337-380 (47.0%).
*Plinko: This was playing #25 for Plinko this season. After 25 playings, $174,400 has been won. Compare that to last year ($234,800 after 25 playings), and the total doesn't seem all that impressive.
*Dice Game: This game sure does produce some strange car prices.
*Pick-A-Number: Even though it was the third digit that was missing, this playing actually wasn't a crapshoot. $3,685 looked a lot more right than $3,635 and $3,655.
*Today's second Showcase was the most expensive Showcase of the season, beating out a Showcase from the season premiere (which also featured a Cadillac). Even though he overbid, I'm quite impressed that Donnie didn't bid conservatively on it.
