Paige Davis on Let's make a deal

May have been the most retarded gameshow performance ever: She started with altoids with the option to trade it for whatever was behind the curtains and never at any point chose what was behind the curtains; even though on one option the CLUE was GROUND TRANSPORTATION...bear in mind she is playing for charity on a charity game show, so you know you are guaranteed at least a decent prize...I will just take the rest from wikipedia.com (yes her moment was so bad it earned an article)
"Round 3
Paige Davis, dressed as Little Bo Peep, was given a tin of Altoids Mints (worth $1.50). Ricki then offered to trade the mints for what was behind Curtain #2. Paige chose to keep the mints (over an apparent battle with nausea), giving up a Jeep Wrangler SE 4x4 worth $19,135.

She was then offered what was behind Curtain #3, which was partially revealed to show a year's supply of Turtle Wax worth $50. She still kept the mints, and passed on another car, a Dodge Charger worth $22,995, for a total package of $23,045.

Finally, Paige was offered a chance to trade for Curtain #1, with the hint that it hid something to do with GROUND TRANSPORTATION. Once again, she kept the mints, passing on a Cadillac CTS V6 VVT worth $35,080.

So after passing on THREE cars in a row, Ricki opened the mints and revealed a check inside the tin for $3500 cash. This is a recreation of a famous deal that was also previously recreated on the 2003 revival.

Total Winnings: $3,501.50 (incl. the Altoids)"


Seriously the charity must be watching and wishing just once she would pick a DAMN CAR! Just one damn it...

About Me

My photo
Cali-J ueber alles in der Welt. Some think that I am mean; (I call them friends), in fact I am not that mean. What I am is sarcastic and dry to the sandpaper level. I have friends that I have never said a kind word to their face, but I praise to the ends of the earth to anyone I know and will defend them to the end. That’s just how I roll! My boys know that I am down for them, my girls know that no matter what I will keep them safe (and occasionally flirt with them [If you are a female friend of mine and think I haven’t flirted with you it just means you didn’t notice, it was extremely subtle or…not yet ]). No one is safe from my sarcasm even my own parents; hence of course as a kid I spent a significant amount of time in punishment. I treat people with respect if I think they deserve it – everyone starts off with the same amount of respect from me (a lot). You don’t need to earn my respect; you have to keep my respect.
