At the turn of the millennium, a gameshow started to dominate pop culture in the U.S. due to its lofty promises of wild riches.

Over the last five or so years, every Angeleno has experienced that moment when, frantically searching for street parking, they turn onto a stretch of road completely saturated with recreational vehicles, better known as RVs.
