A ‘Price Is Right’ Contestant Broke The All Time ‘Plinko’ Record And Went Crazy (Video)

It’s the little things in life, right?  For Ryan, a recent contestant on “The Price Is Right,” that’s definitely the case.  Yesterday, Ryan broke the show’s all-time Plinko record and he went absolutely ballistic!

In case you’re not familiar, Plinko is the game where contestants drop those puck-like chips down a gigantic pinball-style board, and the chips end up in grooves at the bottom that are worth anywhere from $0 to $10,000.  Ryan hit the max, $10,000, with his first chip.  On his next try, he got $1,000.  And then on the third chip, hit the $10,000 jackpot again!  On his fourth try only won him $500, but then he hit the $10,000 again with his fifth and final chip!  That’s a total of $31,500.

Host Drew Carey said that was the most any contestant has ever won.  The previous record was $30,500.  Obviously, the whole thing is about 99.9% luck, but Ryan didn’t care.  He was absolutely losing his mind!
