Price Is Right’s host Drew Carey said he was ‘blessed’ to have a cancer survivor return to show after she won a Showcase in 1999.
The Price Is Right’s longtime host, Drew Carey, was feeling “blessed” to have one contestant on the hit CBS game show.
During the April 15 episode, player Yolanda made her way to the stage after guessing the nearest retail price of an air purifier.
She got emotional while she announced to Carey and the audience that she was making her return to the show after she won a Showcase in 1999.
The player also divulged that she’s a cancer survivor and expressed her happiness with being able to return after her health battle.
Carey was moved by her tearful reveal and said: “Oh, my goodness! I feel so blessed to be next to you this morning.”

Sadly, Yolanda didn’t get the chance to win a new sedan during her game of Pocket Change or score bif once again during the Showcase round as she didn’t win on the wheel.
The Showcase came down to Kevin and Derek, who both spun $1 on the wheel, securing $1k, and a spot on the finishing game.
Derek passed on bidding on amart watches, inflatable motor boats, and a sedan. Kevin bid $27k on the items.
Meanwhile, Derek also bid $27k on trips to New Orleans, Spain, and South Africa.
Kevin wound up bidding only $50 over his price, allowing Derek to win despite being $4k under.
During yesterday’s episode of the game show, Carey jokingly scolded a player about complaing as they voiced their dismay about not getting to play Plinko.

Player James attracted Carey’s attention with his shirt that said: “I wanna play Plinko,” which prompted the host to say in dismay: “Ah, James we’re not playing Plinko!”
James replied: “That’s okay, I’m just happy to be here.” Carey asked: “Oh, you’re happy if we don’t play Plinko?” James replied: “Yeah, it’s totally fine.”
Carey told announcer George Gray: “George he says its okay we’re not playing Plinko,” which made James interject: “Unless you have it. I’ll take it.”
Gray then asked James: “What would you be okay playing?” before added: “Okay how about you just play for a brand new car!”
James then played the Dice Game for a chance to win the vehicle.
According to the game show’s website, the game sees the first digit in the price of a car revealed. The remaining digits in the price are all between 1 and 6.
The contestant rolls dice to predict the remaining digits and if they do not roll a correct digit, they must predict whether the digit is higher or lower than the number rolled.
If the contestant is correct about each digit, they win the car.
James ended up winning the car after a tense game, and it prompted Carey to joke: “You better not complain you didn’t play Plinko. That’s all I gotta say.
“I don’t wanna hear one word, ‘Ah I didn’t get to play Plinko, I just won a car.’”
