So, I think I'll probably need Adam's help with this, but the idea is to do a competition in Southern California, and then go to The Price Is Right afterwards because I think if you bring a group of 20, one person is guaranteed to get on the show. Of course, I think they film on weekdays so we would be a bit limited in who was able to go.
The other thing we would do (after researching that it's not already out there) is data mine the show. So we would come up with a product list and prices of every show that airs, and then also make a list of all the types of games and understand how to play optimal strategy for the games, and EV for all the situations.
For example... when you spin the big wheel, you actually get an extra spin if it doesn't go around all the way. The rule is usually for weak women, and these burly men like to show off by spinning the wheel very hard. WRONG! Take the first spin, and try to hit 100 just by going around once. If you miss, then you go ahead and do your second spin as hard as you can randomly.
So we would want to maximize all opportunities on the show. Anyway, I can try to find a date and book tickets for the show, and we can plan a small competition around that as well. I guarantee if 20 speed cubers showed up, we would get on the show, and the Rubik's Cube would be solved on the show as well.
UPDATE - you have to be 18 to go on the show.
