As a contestant named Michelle headed to the stage, host Drew Carey revealed the game was going to have a new twist–known as a Golden Plinko chip.
If Michelle won the chip while guessing the prices of the smaller prizes, she could use it in the game, and wherever it would drop, her prize would be multiplied by 10.If the chip landed on the top slot of $20,000, her prize would be multiplied to be $200,000 total.
Earning four chips total, including the Golden one, Michelle yubi managed to get her other chips to all land in the $5,000 slot, for a $15,000 win. When she placed the Golden Chip, it landed in the $2,000 slot, earning her an additional $20,000–for a grand total of $35,000.
Fans quickly shared on an Instagram post showing her win that they loved the change to the game, and hoped it could be added to the daytime version of the show.
“Ooh, I LIKE this twist!!!,” one commented.
“Do this for daytime too!!,” another wrote.
“NOW… that’s my kinda PLINKO game,” a third said.
The Price is Right airs weekdays on CBS, and the Price is Right at Night airs Wednesday nights.
