CCook50 and I were amazed (not only because we're members here, but also at golden-road.net) to see and learn that Adam Rose, a pre-school teacher from Santa Barbara County, California (am I correct, CCook?) became the first ever $1 Million-plus winner in the history of The Price Is Right on Friday (2/22) in Drew Carey's first "Million Dollar Spectacular" on CBS. For the uninformed, Drew replaced Bob Barker after 35 years.

All Mr. Rose did was bid within $1,000 on the showcase he bid on, and not only did he win both showcases, but also a bonus of $1 million. The final haul (including the $20K he won in the primetime version of "Grand Game") was over $1.1 million including a hybrid SUV and a Cadillac. Congrats to Mr. Rose on his record haul off CBS' biggest win ever, also the fifth highest one time win in TV history as well.
