Drew Carey recently created a lighthearted moment on The Price Is Right during a Christmas-themed episode when he unintentionally kicked a fake penguin on stage. This amusing incident occurred right after contestant Deborah from Nashville, Tennessee, celebrated winning a backyard-themed prize package.
The festive set for the holiday episode was adorned with colorful decorations, including artificial penguins, trees, and reindeer. Deborah began her journey by bidding $1,000 on outdoor Christmas decor, which was valued at $1,363. Her bid brought her closest to the actual price without exceeding it, allowing her to move forward in the game.
Following her initial success, Deborah played the Push Over game, where she worked to correctly price a Zuo Mod patio set, a fire pit table, and an outdoor smart TV. By strategically eliminating one of the nine numbers, she accurately identified the price of $7,169, winning her the patio set.
As Drew congratulated her, he accidentally knocked over one of the penguins, humorously kicking it aside and quipping, “Nothing to see here.” His playful demeanor helped maintain a cheerful atmosphere, even in light of the small blunder.
Deborah remained focused on her prizes and successfully spun a .90 on the Showcase Showdown, earning her a spot in the finale. She made a bid of $33,000 on a showcase that included a stunning jewelry collection, an Alaskan adventure, and a Chevrolet Trax. Unfortunately, she fell short as her opponent’s bid was closer to the actual price.
Despite not winning the final showcase, Deborah left the show with an impressive total of $8,531 in prizes. The Price Is Right continues to deliver festive fun and exciting challenges for its viewers, airing weekdays on CBS and available for streaming on Paramount+. This incident is a reminder of the joy and unexpected moments that make game shows captivating for audiences.
