COMMENTS:
A fun show full of twists and turns, a really funny moment, and a really huge winner. Crimson's big win is the largest win in one non-MDS show in Jordanar18's Price is Right to date. With a perfect Switcheroo playing and an impressive DSW, it will be hard to top.
Flip Flop was interesting. Playing it for a car worked out rather well, but sideshow couldn't overcome the car's tricky price.
Most Expensive for three different stocks is certainly a simple concept. However, someguy wasn't aware of the market, and therefore lost. But the audience was fooled too, they couldn't believe how low Ford was.
The original IUFB #4 was a set of gardening equipment, but when the host couldn't tell the contestants what composed of the equipment, the treadmill was substituted.
Hit Me with three prices ending in zero was certainly interesting. Army fell for it, too, but recovered nicely with the Garlique.
PatrickRox, in a nutshell, simply got unlucky, becoming the losingest player to win at least something perhaps ever, with only $203. He also had to deal with an especially tricky Money Game board.
