Biology Major Madison Riley takes her turn on “The Price is Right”
When Madison Riley, a junior biology major, went on the game show “The Price is Right,” she wore a t-shirt that said “Don’t pick me, pick my sister.”
That shirt, coupled with a nervousness that turned into a dynamic television personality, got her called down to contestant’s row to bid on items including an elliptical machine and some luggage. Riley beat out the other contestants and won the bid for luggage, which she realized was a more expensive item after her family trip to California to be on the game show.
Riley moved on stage with host Drew Carey to play the grocery pricing game “Bullseye,” and was able to win the prize of two airfare tickets to Key West, Florida. She was one of two winners from the episode that was filmed this summer and aired on Oct. 7.
Like her t-shirt said, Riley is picking her sister for the trip to Key West. “I couldn’t think of taking anyone else but my sister,” said Riley. “She was the reason I was picked, and I’m really excited to take the luggage I won.”
