Overview
- Vanesa McCaskell won $240,150 during a Mother’s Day episode, the largest single‑game haul in The Price Is Right’s daytime history.
- She did it on The Lion’s Share, a BetMGM‑branded pricing game that gives players up to five balls and the option to risk a “lose it all” ball for a shot at as much as $500,000.
- Her run hit $2,500, then $25,000, then two $100,000 pulls, and finished with a mother‑daughter trip to Morocco worth about $12,650 for $227,500 in cash plus travel.
- Host Drew Carey confirmed the on‑air total as a new mark, topping the prior single‑game record of $210,000 set in 2016.
- McCaskell, a retired Army veteran from Virginia, called the win life changing and said she will invest the money and surprise her mom, as BetMGM and Fremantle promote the result as a payoff from their 2025 partnership.
