this is the first time I've seen they put a car that's over 200k. the 3 strike game is one of the most difficult game on that show.....but in this case, it looks like it's one strike you're out.....she pull that one strike and game over, usually, contestants would put that strike back in the bag until they strike out at 3......I assume that since the Prize is the most expansive that show ever displayed, they only give contestants one chance........what are the odds that a contestant would pull all 6 numbers for that Ferrari without that one strike.......they're not stupid....lol....

I thought the video was altered. But maybe you're right and she only got one strike which lit the board up with three strikes. Either way, they weren't gonna let her win that car. This looked like a publicity stunt.

Nobody ever wins that game. Same thing with the "Golden Road" one where they always have a car at the end of it that's worth about $80,000.

On a side note, did you guys know Drew is a Marine?

They should have to turn the "baseball" sack inside out after someone loses...For all we know, the sack is full of strikes...Another thing, even if she won the car, I'd bet the house that there's something in the fine print that she has to come up with the taxes on it in 30 days...Most people couldn't afford the taxes alone and have to take a cash amount if they even offer a cash option. And sometimes, the cash amount isn't anywhere near the equivalent to the car.

They say that even for cheaper prizes the majority cannot afford to pay the taxes on it to take it home.  Apparently there are buyers willing to pay the taxes for you and give you a little cash to take the prizes off your hands.
