The WB's Pepsi Play For A Billion

[John Corn]

Anyone playing to watch this tomorrow night?

Apperently, the premise is that 1000 people found specially marked bottle caps and will be flown to Orlando for a chance to play a game for a billion dollars.

Of those 1000, 10 are randomly selected via a lottery where the 1000 people pick one number b/t 000000 to 999999, and the 10 who get called get to play.

Then, the 10 finalists compete in Survivor-like stunts. Some will be tempted to take whatever cash they win on the preliminary heats and run.

Finally, the one who lasts the longest will get a chance @ $1,000,000,000. All they have to do is match a six-digit number that a monkey picks. In other words, no one ain't winning no $1,000,000,000.....

Still will be fun to watch, no?

I'd be crazy to go any further than I would need to if I knew those odds. It would be very fun to watch though and it would be very funny if someone dis win a billion bucks. I knew they would make the odds way way against you on getting the billion.

Don't know if I'll watch, but I'm sure I'll be drinking a Coke while it's on.

 

[IndyMichael]

Anyone watch? Was it even on? I haven't seen anything on the news, in the papers, or anywhere online, so I assume no one won the billion (like anyone had a snowballs chance of winning it.) Did anyone win any substantial amount of money?

 

[TheaterWizard]

someone won one million, the rest took smaller amounts instead of risking it for the big one.
Pretty boring really

 

[Stargazer]

Didn't he come close to winning the $Billion? I believe if he would have had the first two numbers switched he would have won $1 Billion, if I am not mistaken.

 

[TheaterWizard]

Yah I'd say there was some funny business going on with that part. Oh the suspense of it all.....

 

[Stargazer]

They also said that his name was in the envelope the whole time as well.
