28, so don’t be surprised if you catch the comedian, known for his spontaneous style of comedy, sneaking around the casino floor before the show. He is on tour, including a stop at Morongo Casino Resort & Spa in Cabazon on Thursday, Dec. He added that if he were on “Deal or No Deal,” he would take the first offer and go home. Mandel has a slot machine version of the show in his Los Angeles office, but said he’s not much of a gambler. “Just before she pressed the button, I said in her ear, ‘Deal or No Deal.’ She never turned her head she just elbowed me in the chest, knocked the wind out and said ‘Get away from me.’ She didn’t know who I was. “There was some lady once playing and very focused on the machine, so I thought it’d be funny to sneak up behind her,” Mandel said in a recent phone interview.
If you’re ever playing the slot machine version of “Deal or No Deal” and you hear a voice behind you asking, “Deal or No Deal?” it might be comedian, television personality, actor, and producer Howie Mandel.
