Ryan’s enthusiasm is more contagious than a cold. The recent “Price is Right” contestant absolutely loses his mind with excitement from the moment he’s able to bid one dollar on contestant’s row! When he’s asked to make his way onto the stage, he somehow manages to take it up another notch. Once Ryan realizes he’s going to play possibly the most beloved classic “Price is Right” game, Plinko…well, it’s amazing that he didn’t pass out! Instead, he blurted out a Plinko fun fact when Drew Carey handed him his first Plinko chip. “There’s only ten of these in existence!” he exclaimed.

According to Business Insider, the Plinko game debuted in 1983, and after all of these years, it took an animated player like Ryan to set a new big win record with $31,500. The only other times a player has won more while Drew Carey has been the host was during a primetime show with more money up for grabs.

But Ryan’s once-in-a-lifetime “Price is Right” run didn’t end there. During the commercial break, he was invited to step up to announcer George Gray’s podium to give the show’s closing speech. Watch Ryan’s speech here and his win below.
