Have you guys been watching The Price is Right with Drew Carey? I missed yesterday's episode, but did tune in just in time to catch this gem today.Apparently Drew Carey's star power makes people go just as nuts as Bob Barker's did. On today's episode, a woman went ballistic when she found out she was playing Plinko. Sure, that's usually how contestants react to Plinko. But, this woman kept saying, "I have to go to the bathroom!" and (ahem) holding herself. Naturally, Drew pretty much loses it.
This has got to be one of the best TPIR clips ever. Video is after the jump:

That explains the all-you-can-drink iced tea they serve to the people waiting to get in.

Yes John, I posted it. I would like some money for my troubles considering the "writers" here just steal from the comments.

Gee, the show sure has lost it's class now that Bob is gone. She could have kept the fact she needed to pee to herself and simply played as fast as she could so she could go potty. Her comments were embarassing.

Whoops. Yes, I did post that video two days ago. On accident. I somehow copied the wrong embed code into my post the other day. The first time I saw the "bathroom" lady was on TPIR today. Weird.

Victoria is right, Bob exuded class, elegance, style, and charisma, the characteristics that we don't see now.
As for the lady that had to go to the bathroom, I was on the show before, and they give you many opportunities to "go" before you go inside. You are there for hours on end, and they repeat over and over, that once you are inside the studio there are no restrooms, and you may not leave until taping is over. (about 1 1/2 hours) You're outside for at least 10 hours BEFORE you get in the actual studio, and there are multiple places and times that you can go to the bathroom. I think the "I gotta pee" thing was all for show. It was also very tacky to give out that particular information on TV. It just wasn't necessary to let the world know you have to urinate.
By the way, yes, I was a winner as well, of my game, and also of the Showcase. VERY exciting!
