Price is Right player’s bid had Drew Carey and the show’s audience in absolute shock.

The Price Is Right’s Drew Carey ‘puts contestant in her place’ with ‘shady’ dig that fans call ‘best comment ever’

DREW Carey took a dig at one contestant on The Price is Right, which led fans to praise him for the hilarious moment.

The game show host put a player in her place after she bid just one dollar over the person next to her — a common strategy for getting onto The Price is Right stage.

After one contestant bid $1700 on an item, the next player, Karen, proclaimed her amount as $1701.

She slowly declared her amount with wide eyes, then turned back to the audience and seemed to be shocked by her own decision.

She also wore a shirt that read “The Original Karen,” in the font of the classic game show.

ONCE A KAREN?

Karen, a slang term to describe a white woman who is perceived as entitled or demanding, is often associated with a shaggy, short blond haircut.

Between the player’s hair, the exaggerated way she gave her response, and the sneaky game move, Drew had some words to say after her turn at the mic.

“Wow, you are the original Karen,” the host said.

The memorable moment was shared on the show’s Instagram account, along with the caption, “Her shirt said it all.”

In the comments, fans praised Drew, who has hosted the show since 2007, for the hilarious comeback.

“The funniest thing he said on that show,” one person wrote.

“Love it when Drew busts up laughing lol,” said a second.

“This was hilarious,” a third added.

“THE SHADE OF IT ALL!” wrote a fourth.

“He sure put her in her place!” another exclaimed, as someone else similarly wrote, “Put her in her place, Drew.”

ONE IN A MILLION

Some players on The Price is Right have been known to give some questionable bids, specifically ones that have made Drew do a double take.

The Price is Right Hosts

The Price is Right first came on TV in 1972. Fans fell in love with the game show so much that it has been on for over 50 years. Throughout that time, the show has had a few different hosts. Find out who they are below.

Bob Barker – 1972 to June 2007 (also became executive producer in 1988)

Drew Carey – October 2007 to present

Dennis James – filled in for Bob in 1974 when he missed four episodes, also hosted the nighttime version

Craig Ferguson – 2014 April Fools Day Special

Last month, one contestant shocked the host by giving an answer that was so large that it didn’t even fit on the board.

Halfway through an episode, Drew called a man named Nicholas from the audience down to the podium.

He and three others were asked to guess the price of a set of workout equipment, which included a stationary bike and a knee-raise station.

Nicholas was the first to guess the price, telling the host, “I’m gonna say $1 million.”

The audience went silent as Drew responded, “Seriously?”

“Yeah, it looks like some nice equipment,” Nicholas said.

“We can put one million on there if you want us to,” Drew replied, hinting that the player should change his answer.

Despite accepting the response, production was unable to put the $1 million bid on the podium’s screen as it was too large.

With the actual retail value being $1798, Nicholas’ guess was nowhere near being accurate.

The guesses from the other contestants were $2400, $1250, and $1500.

At home, viewers were upset with Nicholas for taking the place of another audience member who could have taken it more seriously.
