Million Dollar Money Drop - How To Play At Home

"Million Dollar Money Drop" - Returns January 4th, 2011 - Play At Home, Here's How!

For those that were fortunate enough to watch "Million Dollar Money Drop" last week, you know the show rules, and that it returns January 4th, 2011. You probably also know what a great show it is, and within a year or so, it's likely someone will develop a Home Version of the game. Well, I'm here to suggest a possible way you can play at home when the show returns in about a week!

Grab yourself 4 paper cups, and a roll of pennies. The Million Dollar Money Drop uses 50 packs of $20,000 each. Each one of your pennies will represent $20,000. 50 Pennies will represent the entire Million Dollars!

Of course, you'll have to play the category the contestant chooses. When the 4 answers come up, and the question is asked, pause the show. Easy to do if you have a DVR/Tivo, or if you opt to record the program and not watch it until after the show is over.

Once paused, take time to talk about it as a family, and place your pennies in the appropriate cups. Make sure you leave one cup empty. When shoots are dropped that correspond to your cups, you lose the money in those cups. When you get to question #7, it's all or nothing with however many pennies you have left.

Have fun playing along. And post here how you make out. Let's see if anyone makes a Million! (or 50 pennies as the case will be, hehe).

This show was awesome!  I want to get on it!  Sometimes the questions are super easy and sometimes I would just straight up guess.  And of course I was yelling at all of the stupid people!  lol
