be a contestant on "Cash Cab"

Me and my family are going to NY Augest 13th and would love to be contestents on the show. I love the show and Ben Baily. That would be the coolest thing to come back to Florida saying “I’ve been in the Cash Cab.

...and my big plan is to get on cash cab! I plan on hailing every van cab I can in the 3 days I’ll be there. It’s my goal to at least make enough money to pay for the darn hotel. So if you see a dreadie girl, standing outside MSG after the dead shows, hailing every cab she sees, that’s me and that’s what I’m doing!

haha

I am going to visit my sister in June 2009 and we are going to
spend a couple of days in New York. What a highlight it would
be to be on the cash cab. I love the show! I watch it when ever I can.

My Best Friend Timothy Quinton and I would like to be on cash cab.
Plz tell me of how we can be on the show.

MY SON WAS TOLD HE HAD ACUTE LEUKIMIA ON OCTOBER 15th, 2008. HE HAS BEEN FIGHTING THIS DIEASE SINCE THAN AND IT IS JUST GIVING HIM ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE. HE IS IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING A STEM CELL TRANSPLANT. ON TOP OF ALL THIS, HIS ONE AND ONLY BROTHER WILL NOT HELP HIM. WE DON’T KNOW WHY EXCEPT THAT HE IS MARRIED TO A VERY HORRIBLE PERSON. THEY WERE GOOD FRIENDS BEFORE HIS BROTHER GOT MARRIED. MY SON LOVES CASH CAB AND WOULD LOVE TO GO TO NEW YORK AND BE ON THE SHOW. WE WATCH IT ALL THE TIME. HE IS 27 YEARS OLD AND IF AND WHEN HE GETS OUT OF THE HOSPITAL WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE HIM TO NEW YORK AND TRY AND FIND THE CASH CAB. ITS ONE OF HIS FAVORITE SHOWS AND WE HOPE TO WIN SOME BIG MONEY. THIS IS ONE OF HIS DREAMS.

I watch the show everyday and I can answer the questions. And also, how great is it to get into a New York City cab and actually have the driver pay you.

It is my one wish to do this experience.

I would love to be on this show. I think Ben is great and I’m always on the lookout for his cab. Please pick me up!!

Where else can you get in a cab and make lotsa $$$. What a great city. I soooooooo want to be on cash cab. Great show, I’m addicted.

Without giving away too much, I was a contestant on the Cash Cab in late May, 2006. There was a screener that approached my group talking about a “Reality show” and how we were just what they were looking for. We were inside a bar at South Street Seaport and kind of in the bag at the time. After the front company arranges a spot for us to get a ride to the destination of the reality show, Ben’s cab conviently shows up. There is quite a bit that is cut out during the taping, I guess to keep the show at a “G” rating. I was told that it is 50/50 random/staged pick-up (I am thinking nighttime is random)

Anyway, the cash is fake (you are mailed a check), the steetside is not staged, and there is SOME slack in the red-light challenge (as soon as the cab moved, we hit a red light, Ben said it didn’t count)

There is a guy that hangs out in the passenger seat who controls the ceiling lights and monitors how many strikes you have. Before you get excited, the guy in the passenger seat doesn’t get in until Ben reveals you are in the cab. If you pay attention, the Toyota Sienna is chased by a utility van.

are they even still filming? I’m leaving NYC in a week and have yet to spot the cash cab. lol Granted, there’s a LOT of van cabs out here. But I’ve been here six weeks!
