    I automatically want to figure the math. What's the odds of a single person getting $1? Say there's 20 spots, $.05 to $1.00. The odds of getting the $1 first spin is an easy 1/20. Odds on the second spin would also be 1/20 right? So if 20 people go, 1.95 would be expected to get $1. Convert to fraction 195/2000 or 39/400.

    So 39/400 X 39/400 X 39/400 tells us the odds of 3 in a row is slightly less than 1/1000, at .9269%

    5 shows per week, 2 chances per show. This should happen once every couple of years on average

    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    Sportscenter had the odds at 9000-1 on 3 people hitting 1 on multiple spins each.

    It obviously drastically changes if you make it be two spins per person. My math above factored in the very real possibility that you can hit $1 on the first spin

    So you're telling me there's a chance?

    But your math also does not include situations where the first spinner hits $.90 or$.95 and declines second spin.

    Have not forgot Jerry, still processing this one. These happen once every 50 years so you get the delay.
