Gameplay

George Barnes, an NFL superfan, was led into the studio and surprised with a set decked out for him, and plenty of NFL players to help. He picked case 18 for Peyton Manning. When the game board was taken down to eight cases, including the top two prizes and $100,000 for backup, the banker offered his usual sports-fan superpackage: a 2008 GMC Sierra Denali with tailgating gear, four season tickets to the Colts, three games sideline passes WITH practices, two autographed football, honorary 12th man passes to throw out the first ball, a once-in-a-lifetime Super Bowl XLII package with two tickets, airfare and hotel for four nights, VIP tickets to the Super Bowl concert series beforehand, and a behind-the-scenes tour of the NFL Network AND lunch with a former player. This, combined with $50 grand in cash, was worth $116,900, but his wife reasoned with him that this would not pay off his debt, and two more rounds proved it: Both top prizes were still active, and $237,000 was at stake. Unfortunately, the backup - $750,000 - dropped out of the game, and the banker was free to skew his offer lower - to $189,000, only 74.8% of the current mean. This, however, would be all null and void if the top prize was hit, as the second prize left was $10,000. George bailed out of the game despite the NFL players insisting the million was in his case, and they were right. What a bad lead-in to the upcoming Million Dollar Mission!

When the sports package was turned down, the truck was given away to a random audience member, just to intimidate George.
The Lucky Case Game was worth $1 million, and it was not given away until the next show, when models went to the winner's home live and presented the prize to them.
