That is one dumb lucky girl. I can't believe she pulled it off. Don

Further affirming Bob's belief that things need to be spayed and neutered.

I don't watch TV at all. I think it numbs the brain and destroys your ability to think. Before you disagree with me, remember that our current President, House and Senate were all elected by people who watch TV. I think some of the comments posted on that link were cruel. That girl was under a lot of pressure and she pulled it off. I wonder how many of the people that criticized her would have done any better? She won all three things, and went to the end of her 10 tries. The audience was screaming. You could tell Bob Barker was getting impatient. I think I would be pretty nervous also. I think her family should be proud of her.

Perhaps a future Speaker of the House?

I wonder if she was able to pay the taxes on all those winnings, or if it caused more trouble than winning the stuff was worth?
I've heard horror stories...because income taxes must be paid on the winnings.
Easy if it's cash...not so easy if it is merchandise.
Also, many winnings can be "overvalued" and priced at full MSRP on forms, rather than what they would actually sell for...
Becoming a contestant is just asking for trouble- better hope you don't win anything.

You are correct-that's why I gave my winning powerball ticket to that guy from Missouri. I just didn't want to have the responsibility of all that money and have to pay all those taxes-and besides, he looked like he needed it more than me.

If Barker would have had any colored hair left, that would have finished it off. Thanks Caj.

+1............winning all 3 items would not be easy. I bet most folks could not have done as well.

Wasn't the blond asssistant the reason "Old Bob" retired? Maybe it was another one.

Thanks, I needed that. The comments are hilarious:
"He is so pissed off that a stupid girl was that lucky. He wanted her to die."

That's what makes the PIR such a hoot! I liked BB as host and couldn't se anybody else doing the show, but Drew Carey has really carried (no pun intended) it off! One of my daytime faves.
