If you’ve watched The Price is Right even a couple of times, you’ve probably noticed that a lot of people who go on the show wear matching shirts. There are usually at least two or three large groups of hopeful audience members all decked out in the same outfits. And it seems that the people in these coordinated shirts tend to get chosen more than other contestants, right?
Not so fast. Executive producer Mike Richards said it all comes down to basic numbers. “If you come in a big group of 15 people all in the same shirt, just statistically, one of you is probably going to get chosen, just because there are 300 people in the audience, and we have to pick nine of them,” he explains. Makes sense to us.
