If you were given the chance to perhaps win cash or prizes, how would you do it? Maybe you would go to your grandmother’s BINGO competition, or maybe you put your ticket in a raffle and hope that your number is called.

That is absolutely true. They do not know what the food is. We do, but they don't.” Minute to Win It was hosted by Guy Fieri, and an in studio contestant tries to complete 10 deceivingly easy games in order to win $1,000,000. The contestant only had a minute, thus the name Minute to Win It. And now! It’s time for Jake & David to go head to head in a Minute to Win It challenge! Let’s take a look at your challenge
