Carey admits his part in a joke

Drew Carey, in a "post production" meeting today, with the staff of "The Price is Right," revealed that he and Harry Thornton, prize coordinator, had, at the Watering Hole, a bar on East Palm Drive, in Beverley Hills, conspired to "get even" with a few of his more excitable contestants on the popular game show.

"Every day, people jumping up and down, screaming, making fools out of themselves, well, we had just had enough. Drew and I got to talking about all of them, and we somehow wanted to .... get even," Harry commented.

"I guess we had one too many," Carey explained. "Well, what we did, we gave away four nice trips to far away exotic places, and, well as a sort of a joke, and to make Harry and I, well, we got a kick out of it, well, the trips were all ........ One Way."

"We'll probably have to bring them back, at some point, if we can find them,? Carey stated, "but I'm in no hurry."
