People on The Price is Right are idiots
 
Nobody has a clue what they are doing in the initial bidding, I see it time and time again. Here's an example:

Keep in mind this is the closest to the actual price without going over

They are bidding on a set of snowshoes. I can't remember how many you get but they're pretty sweet and expensive looking.

Player 1: $750, a solid opening bid
Player 2: $1, a little risky in my opinion with two players yet to act
Player 3: $751
Player 4: $650. WTF? Her options are to choose 2 dollars or 752. If she doesn't want to seem mean by picking 2 dollars she can go with 100 or something. terrible.

Yeah, this bugs me too. And it happens at least three out of the six times they do this each show. The other day there were two entire sets of golf clubs up for bid. The first guy went way low with like $500. Next person something like $700, and the last two clowns were in the $300 range. Of course the two sets were worth something like $2000, and a simple $701 would have gotten to compete.

I guess it is a good cross section of the smarts of the average American, which doesn't say much for this fine country.

My buddy was on price is right. He was the guy to bet $1 over the highest person and won.

He played plinko and it was the most dramatic thing I've ever seen. He won like 4 chips. The first 3 were like $0, $100, $0. The last chip, he drops it down and it is about to fall in $0, when it gets stuck. Bob picks it up, walks it to my buddy and he drops it again and it lands right in the $10k slot.

Honestly, I have never seen him so excited it was hillarious to watch.

Plinko is rigged.

it's funny too because alot of them are college students and they are still idiots.

i've always wanted to bid $1 on the showcase showdown. sometimes the first person drastically overbids. you can tell it's about 15k over, then the 2nd dummy ends up overbidding too. idiots. maybe they were trying to get it right on to get both prizes.
