This show looks like every show this week.
Except we have the Plinko Record ( $10,000 Center Slot ) broken.
The $31,500 won , breaks the Previous Record ( $30,100 won on Christmas in 2007 )
Since they raised the Value of the Middle slot to $10,000 , this is only the 2nd time the Center slot has been hit 3 times in one playing.

Ryan was a tad over-the-top with his enthusiasm, bordering on obnoxious; but I ended up cheering really loud for him every time he hit the center slot. I wager if he had those two to do over; he would have ended up with $50,000, he knew what he was doing. Meanwhile, if Barker had randomly walked onto the set, Ryan probably would have had a nuclear meltdown. The kid was definitely a LFAT.

Loved Ryan.

When Drew gave him his first Plinko chip, he excitedly commented "There's only 10 of these in existence!" ..how true is that? That's news to me.

It's true. There's a picture floating around (I think it was on the show's Twitter or Instagram account) of the other 5 chips, in their holding box, and "Do not use" written on it.

Incredible that this guy knew that off the top of his head, absolutely a LFAT and deserved the big win and record he accomplished.

[Wayoshi]

It's a pretty bad week when an all-time great Plinko segment is the only win (and even then, some would still say it's a loss) in the last 15 PGs.

Like again, great segment, but this week has been the absolute pits everywhere else. Oh well, let's enjoy that diamond in the rough...

We're 2 more Car Games tomorrow from a Winless ( Won from Pricing Games ) Car Week.
The Show must be relieved after all those winners last week.

What a haul in Plinko! It's kind of hard to believe that only two contestants have won over $30,000 in the game in daytime. Couldn't have happened to a better contestant-- a definite LFaT as has been said.

The rest of the show was again filled with pretty ungenerous set-ups. Most Expensive probably should've been won, although I don't blame her for picking the refrigerator. Let em Roll was mean with the super expensive coffee, and I don't think many contestants would've thought the car was $15,000 in Line em Up or chosen $12,000 for the bags in Balance Game.

An all-time record in Plinko? I'm glad I tuned in today. No matter whether the contestant was genuinely that excited, or perhaps pushed by the producers to be over the top, it was a Plinko for the ages. I'm just upset that Plinko win didn't come 10 years ago, when such a record would have been a "historic moment" and cherished as such. $31,500 - pretty good stuff right there. I'll take one historic Plinko over five Freeze Frame victories.

When the Old Record was Broken in 2007, Drew Checked to see what the Plinko Record was Before the Last Chip was Dropped.
He was Hype that day when that happened.

Today , he was more laid back and only mentioned the Record after the last Chip was dropped.

Ryan might just be my favorite contestant of the Carey era. He deserved every bit of that $31K on Plinko.

[goldroadfanatic]

I tuned in literally when George announced Ryan was going to play Plinko. I enjoyed Ryan's energy and enthusiasm, and I was truly excited to see him win $20,000 with two chips left. When I saw the last one enter the $10,000 slot, I was amazed to see a new Plinko record. Here's hoping we see other $30,000+ winners in the future.

Also, off-camera, Ryan went to George's podium and announced. He even ad-libbed the old snail mail plug!

[UltraPrice]

Ryan not only broke the all-time daytime Plinko record, he also beat the $30,500 won when the $10k got raised to $30k last October on a show celebrating CBS being #1 for 30 years.
