Does anyone know the 20th Season Stats on 3 Strikes? I will need to know the exact price and what type of car it was.

Do I dare ask why?
Roger Dobkowitz's Seven Commandments of The Price Is Right:
1. Tape and edit the show as if it were live.
2. Never tell the contestant what to do.
3. Size matters. (The bigger the prize, the better the prize and the bigger the reaction.)
4. All prizes are good.
5. Never do anything on the show that would embarrass a parent with a kid watching.
6. Never put on a prize that would make the show look cheap.
7. It’s the game, stupid! (It’s about the game.)

Unfortunately, I really don't know.

In the 20th Season, the "three strikes in the bag" rule was still in effect, so I would only assume that the win/loss record wasn't that great.

The 20th Season occured around the 1991-1992 season, so foreign cars were still offered.  I do believe that a contestant named Toni played "3 Strikes +" for a Porsche 968 Coupe; the site's FAQ page suggests that she "cheated" to win that car.  I can't remember the price though.

Yeah.  Danielle played "3 Strikes" for a 1992 Lincoln Continental (it had some kind of low-jack deterrent system and alarm).  That was at least $38,000 (I think...).


She won over $88,000 that day, including a Corvette.

If I'm not mistaken, the Lincoln was $36,789, and her showcase (with the Corvette) was $52,076.  It all totals out to $88,865, the biggest winnings on TPiR at that time.


I wonder how much in cash and prizes Bobette (who won the Viper in the first show of Season 34) would've won if she'd won that Cadillac XLR Showcase too.  I think that would've nearly shattered Sheena's MDS winnings record.

I don't think those numbers are right, because there must have been an IUFB in there too.

Whoops...I did forget the IUFB.  I couldn't remember what that was though; it wasn't even mentioned in Tony Harrison's site.


However, I still think that showcase MUST'VE been around the $50,000 range, which was pretty high back then.

What type of Cadillacs were played during the 20th Season on 3 Strikes +? What other Lincolns besides Lincoln Contentials were on 3 Strikes +?

I doubt anybody has any records on this.

And you still haven't answered my first question.  Why the heck do you want to know all of this?

Nick the reason why I want to know the 20th Season Stats on 3 Strikes is because I want to know the price and the type of cars that were played on 3 Strikes.
