Yes this really happened!
Monday's episode of The Price Is Right is one that will go down in game show history as three contestants spun the big wheel for a spot in the Showcase Showdown and all reached one dollar.
You read that right. Three people actually enjoyed the luck of getting a dollar on the wheel, the problem is there are only two spots in the Showdown. So what ended up happening? Well, they each received a $1,000 bonus for their spins and then the trio had to have a spinoff to determine who would advance. Manfred and Cathryn earned the spots and in the end Cathryn won it all, but it is what happened before the Showdown that really had host Drew Carey, the audience members and Twitter users in disbelief.
