Has anyone won the one million legit?
I know they have had 2 episodes where people won the million but that was with extra cases. Has anyone won the million "straight up"?
shareIf I'm not wrong, those two winners were the only million-dollar winners on the whole show. :(
shareCorrect, both wins came from a stacked deck, so to speak (the "Million Dollar Mission"). Kinda hard to NOT win a million bucks when half the board says "$1 Million" lol...
The thing I hated about those episodes was that they made it pretty blatantly obvious that someone was going to win. Every time they went to commercial, the announcer said "Did ___ win the million dollars?!?! Find out when we come back!" or "In just 7 minutes, you'll find out if ___ won!!!" If she hadn't won, they wouldn't have gone out of their way to "preview" it.
But to answer the OP's question, no it was never won with a standard game board...
Oh stewardess...I speak jive.
The probabilities still stand, though... twice as many million dollar cases means any case the contestant eliminates is twice as likely to be a million dollar case.
You know what inspiration is? The momentary cessation of stupidity.
