When it was his turn to spin the wheel during the Showcase Showdown, Patrice got his first big win by reaching $1
The numbers on the wheel represent cent values up to $1.
A player’s goal is to get a dollar or the closest number to 100 under two spins.
During the Showcase segment of The Price Is Right, Patrice went face to face with contestant Carolyn to win big.
To win trips to Hawaii and Italy, designer products, a motorcycle, and a leather jacket, Carolyn had to guess the correct price.
She guessed $30,028 but lost due to her guess not being correct.
She was off by $6,000.
LUCKY YOU!
Meanwhile, Patrice guessed $39,500 to win an espresso machine, a trip to Miami, Florida, and a luxury black Kia.
When host Drew, 66, checked to see if the price was right, he double-checked Patrice’s guess along with what was shown on his card.
“So, let me tell you,” he said while Patrice and the crowd were in complete shock.

The US game show then went on to say that the price for everything Patrice was given was $39,501
The lucky player was off by $1.
Drew looked at the camera and said, “Off by a dollar. With no help from anybody in the audience, by the way.”
The contestant could be heard saying “Oh my God” as he sunk to his feet behind the podium.
