Pat Sajak’s final episode as the host of “Wheel of Fortune,” will air on Friday night, marking the end of a four-decade run since the show began in its current form in 1983.
And somehow, that may not be the wildest game show-related news from Friday.
During the showcase at the end of “The Price is Right,” Alberta native Patrice Masse did the unthinkable, winning a rare double showcase when his estimated price of the prize package was just $1 below the actual price of $39,501.
Contestants win both showcase prizes when their guess is within $250. Masse’s, meanwhile, was nearly perfect. Check out his reaction and that of host Drew Carey, who called it “the best showcase bid in the history of the show, in my opinion.”

I mean, seriously. What are the odds?
Masse earned himself quite a bounty with his spectacular guess as his prize package included a brand new Kia K5 GT-Line, luxury trips to Milan, Italy, Hawaii, and Miami, and designer apparel from Versace, Gucci and Coach.
