LOS ANGELES — On Wednesday, producers of CBS' long-running daytime game show The Price is Right taped a special episode in which contestants only played the most universally beloved game on the show: Plinko.

"When we realized it was the 30th anniversary of Plinko, we wanted to do something special," says executive producer Mike Richards. "And [host] Drew [Carey] and I have always wanted to do an all-Plinko show. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to keep trotting it out." To sweeten the experience, the studio audience was kept unaware that it was an all-Plinko episode.
