In its final minutes, Jeffrey Randall Allen â better known, if really known at all, as Player 831 in the super-sized game show that started with 1,000 contestants â picked the right briefcase out of 10 on the first try to take all that money home to wherever he lives. (Who knows!)

CBC: Toronto orders creator of tiny mobile homes for unhoused people to stop
The City of Toronto has sent a cease and desist letter to a man who’s built several tiny mobile homes giving temporary shelter to those experiencing homelessness, ordering him to remove them from city property.Â
Ryan Donais started building the small modular homes last summer, later registering his own non-profit organization, Tiny Tiny Homes, to help create more.Â
Not wanting his initiative to get shut down by the city, Donais says he designed the homes with several safety features, such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and a fire extinguisher. They can be attached to the back of a bicycle and transported to other locations.
