‘Price is Right’ model screws up, accidentally gives contestant a car

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Manuela made arguably the worst mistake anyone can make on The Price is Right -- giving away a car without the contestant needing to do anything. The six-year veteran model had a total brain fart and revealed the correct price of a $21,000 Hyundai Sonata without being prompted by the contestant.

That means contestant Andrea gets the car -- no strings attached. When Manuela realized what happened she was stunned.

price is right

Then got very sad.

It’ll be okay! Well, we don’t know that. HOPEFULLY everything will be okay for Manuela.
