How do you figure Arkansas?
I think the child has been overly influenced by the fine folks at fratty.net! His rantings are very similar to the drivel over there.

I love it when people eat digital food.
Someone pass me the digital filet mignon.
I want to wash it down with digital cabernet.

Thank you! We have a winner! You get to move on to the Showcase Showdown!
This idiot is a fratty freak. Don't waste your time.
And hey...who else was glad when they started doing the Showcase Showdown? Didn't you think it was unfair when the two people who had already won the most got to go on for a chance to win MORE? Isn't it much nicer now that everyone gets to spin the wheel and even if you really screwed up Plinko, you still get another chance? That's what makes America the greatest country in the world!!

My cousin got to be a contestant on The Price Is Right a few years ago. Never made it out of Contestants' Row, but got some nice parting gifts.

a girl from my school's NBS got on and almost won a car...but she didn't gues the right price. she got to spin the wheel but didn't get high enough. it was really funny because the NBS had a Price is Right party in our caf and watched the episode and cheered everytime the camera panned over them in their ugly yellow 'boob look at us' millersville tees. it was very funny

In 2002, my friend Maleko tried his luck on The Price is Right while he was on his honeymoon.
He played that game where you randomly punch holes and won a $1,000. When he spinned the wheel, he hit $1.00 and got another $1,000. And theeeeeen, on the Showcase Showdown, he got a new bedroom set and oooooh. A brand new Pontiac Probe.
Yeah, he ended up selling the Pontiac once it got shipped.

I haven't read anything except the end of this thread, so I'm sorry if this has already been mentioned.
What many people don't realize is that the contestant is responsible for income taxes on anything won.
A lot of those who win cars, boats, etc. end up selling them because they can't afford the taxes.

That was part of the reason why he sold it.
He could have afforded the taxes as he makes enough, but a) he didn't like the car and b) didn't want to be paying so much in taxes for a car he didn't even like.

Ahh damn, you might want to not call ye olde 1776 fraternity real - PBK is now co-ed and not social... our poor 'greekdom' founders... they are no longer real fraternity men!
Im REALLY in the mood to throw WhiteStar into the real world by placing him in a room with my second graders. Today they were literally throwing chairs and tables at eachother!

"Like a game show contestant with a parting gift I could not believe my eyes" Who knows what song that's from? It's running through my head and driving me crazy!
