The ultimate in perfection (Impossible I know)
« on: March 24, 2024, 07:41:58 PM »
In 1972 the Miami Dolphins had a perfect season, winning 14 regular season games, 2 playoff games and the Super Bowl.  In spite of their 17-0 perfect season, many imperfections happened, including one of the most famous Super Bowl bloopers in history when Dolphins kicker Garo Yepremian attempted to throw the football after one of his kicks was blocked, and his fumbling and stumbling caused the other team to get the ball and score a touchdown.  A perfect season with a major imperfection thrown in there (plus several others during the regular season).

In 1956, during a World Series game, Yankees pitcher Don Larsen pitched a perfect game.  He got every one of the 27 Brooklyn Dodger batters out, without there being any walks, any batter hit by a pitch, and no errors made by the defense.  That said, Larsen did get one Dodger hitter to a 3 ball count (4 balls being a walk).  So again perfect, but not totally perfect!

Having all 6 pricing games won is deemed a "perfect" show.  But just imagine the ultimate perfect show.

The first bidder during the one bid round getting the price exactly right all six times.

All 6 pricing games played perfectly (e.g. Any Number, getting all 4 numbers in the car with your first four selections AND in order from left to right!)

Other examples of pricing game perfection might be pricing both prizes on Clock Game correctly with your very first bid, winning Ten Chances in just 3 chances, getting exactly $20.00 on Grocery Game with just one item, hanging onto all seven one dollar bills during Lucky Seven, just to name a few.

All 6 players spinning $1.00 on the Wheel on their first spin, then all 3 getting $1.00 again on a bonus spin/spin-off spin.

The 2 showcase qualifiers both bidding the exact price on his/her showcase thus resulting in a Double-Double Showcase winners ending!
