I got to see this in person! This was taped the day after my episode taped. I was right behind her family, sitting in the back row. We all went crazy. They went to break after this (to take away L7 and get the next game ready) and Drew mentioned that this had never happened before on L7. I got to see a historic moment in person! Plus, this episode was taped on Bob's 95th birthday!
This is truly a historic moment for the price is right because no one up to this point had ever played a perfect game of lucky seven and definitely the stars were aligned for stephanie
One of the few things I miss about Bob; him pointing out historical moments on the air. To be clear when I say “one of the few things I miss about Bob,“ I’m referring to when he got increasingly cranky/impatient with age; It made him hard to watch/stomach those last several years but of course, I watched any time I was home from school anyway.
@bostonbruinsfan247 At least Bob made the show even more exciting than it regularly would be. What's the problem with a few jokes or funny comments mixed in?
I looked under “Top Lucky 7” in the search and there is one conspicuously missing - April 1, 2015...Bob Barker visited the show at age 91, and the first contestant to be called down - a married mother of four named Mary Damoude - was the first to get up on stage. Bob played L7 with Mary, giving her the first number (1). Mary guessed the second number correctly (9), was off by one number (8 instead of 7) and guessed the fourth number (5) exactly. Bob pointed out to Mary, “You have 6 dollars. You can miss this by as much as 5 and still have enough to win the car.” Mary guessed 5, it was a 6, and so ended the best game of Lucky 7 I’d ever seen. Until this one.
Actually, the best playing without the perfect win is this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JcBTlYXWvb0.html He got 3 numbers out of the 4 exactly right and missed the 4th digit by 1. AND IT WAS FOR A $57,465 PORSCHE CAYENNE!
If Bob Barker was still the host of this from this show? He would had yelled like crazy saying it's a historic moment. This is the very first person ever since we played this game that we ever had anyone won lucky seven without losing any dollar bills
Stephanie's got super winning powers! A contestant who makes a perfect bid on the contestants row and the last showcase, a perfect pricing game, getting a dollar twice on the big wheel, they must've got winning powers!
I DON’T THINK THAT ANY TPIR CONTESTANT PLAYED LUCKY $EVEN PERFECTLY DURING THE BARKER ERA… BUT DREW CAREY MADE SURE THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN DURING HIS TENURE AS HOST. WAY TO GO, STEPHANIE! LUCK WAS DEFINITELY ON HER SIDE. Kenneth Huang. 6/02/24.
So in a comlete random guess at the numbers, it would be 10x10x10x10 equals 1:10,000 chance. Of cours the 2nd number has a smaller range. So a number like zero is known not to be the number when campared to yhe price of cars at the time. Thats amazing regardless!
Naively, if you assume she has a 1 in 10 chance of randomly picking any number correctly, it's .1 * .1 * .1 * .1 = .0001, or .01%. In reality it's probably a little better than that (you can make an educated guess on the second number, for example), but it's still a very long shot
They already gave her the first number so she had 0-9 to select for the next four numbers. That leaves a possibility of 210 combinations with 10 possibilities for each number so it's 1 in 2100 odds. Not that bad compared to most lotteries where it's in the hundreds of millions due to more numbers.
If Bob Barker hosted this: Bob: Stephanie, you can miss this game by $6 one way or the other. Can you imagine if Stephanie got this last number exactly right. In the 46 years that Lucky Seven has been played, this could be Price is Right history. What number would you like? Stephanie: Bob, I'm going for 5. Bob: Roger, can we just give her the truck? She's obviously a winner here. But for the sake for formality, OPEN THAT DOOR! *Ding* Bob: IT'S A 5! THE GREATEST PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF LUCKY SEVEN! STEPHANIE IS PERFECT! I'LL TAKE $1 AND YOU CAN KEEP THE $6 FOR GAS! Congratulations. 46 years of Lucky Seven and I'm so happy that this game has been perfected. We will be back right after this.
I am working on the 9/23 episode right now, but my Internet is so terribly slow. I started it and it said about 1 hour 20 minutes remaining. I came back to it 45 minutes later and it says 1 hour 9 minutes remaining. Very slow unfortunately.
Interesting to note if she had just guessed all 4s, all 5s, or all 6s, she also would have won. She "wasted" the perfect game on an unusually easy Lucky Seven I think!
Unless they changed the rules, Drew made a mistake at the end when he said, ‘Gimme that money.’ The rules are: if you have at least one dollar left to ‘buy’ the car, you give that dollar to Drew and keep the rest of the money, which in this case would be $6, after giving Drew $1 for the car.
If Bob Barker hosted this moment of Lucky 7. Bob: Stephanie what is the second number? Stephanie: 4 Bob: You got it right now Stephanie what is the 3rd number? Stephanie: 6. Bob: Is it 6? Yes. Stephanie if you got the next 2 numbers right you will make an historic moment in price is right history what is the 4th number? Stephanie: 3. Bob: Is it 3? Yes. This is an historic moment on the price is right in lucky 7 history. You can miss this number by $6 and win yourself that automobile and if you got this last number right you will be the greatest Lucky 7 player what is the last number? Stephanie: 5. Bob: Make it 5. You got it. You are the greatest lucky 7 player. Just a moment just a moment. We have been on the air for 47 years, Have we ever had a contestant playing lucky 7 get all 4 numbers right without missing a number? She's the first contestant to get all 4 numbers right in lucky 7, You are the perfection lucky 7 player of all time, Congratulations and we'll be back after this message.
