Main Story

• After hiding the truth for months (including misleading the team), Lunchbox ("Daniel Chappell" on air) was revealed as a contestant—and big personality—on "The Price Is Right."

• His viewing party was loud; he had to turn on subtitles because kids wouldn’t calm down.

• The moment his real name was called stunned both the hosts and listeners.

  "They call... It comes from Hollywood, television’s most exciting hour—it's The Price Is Right! Daniel Chappell, come on down!"
