I completely forgot that The Price Is Right is still on TV. Bob Barker is now in his 34th season – he has been doing the show almost as long as I’ve been alive. Still using the retro ’70s long stick microphone after all these years.
You could win this … a new car!
Now I want to go to California so I can see the show in person!

~I actually thought he passed away last for some odd reason…maybe I should make the trek to Cali and try to get on the show, I could use a new car myself and that Plinko game looks damn easy~
We just had someone from our area on and win big. And I was just watching him. He was so proud of the guy with the four female ‘spayed’ dogs.
I know people who’ve gotten to “Come on Down”, and there were often groups from my University who got someone on–some people even won!
I used to watch that show ALL THE TIME–I got really good at knowing the prices of those little items.
One of my coworkers went last week to a taping. It’s a huge thing to get in, because they always give away more tickets than there are spaces. (They got there at 4:30AM to make sure they’d get seated.) He said it was a blast. I live so close to all these things, but ugh. Getting up at 3:00 to be somewhere at 4:30? I don’t think I could. (Well, I HAVE done it, for the Shoe Frenzy–but, that’s different! It’s for charity! And..shoes! hee.)
I’ll so go with you. 🙂
I used to watch The Price is Right when I was a kid, and I thought Bob Barker was sooooo handsome. And? When I was eighteen I almost got to go on the show during a youth group trip to Cali, but one of the other kids wasn’t eighteen (you have to be eighteen to be on the show), so none of us got to go. Booo!
Probably should go soon. I think he is about 143 years old.
LOL 143 years old eh? Actually sounds about right..I use to watch him every day! But not so much anymore.
If you do, let me know… I’ve lived here all my life and haven’t made it to the show for a visit.
I’ll go with you too!
