Time for a tribute thread. So many great memories of him making contestants happy and sharing in their joy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGWZ_DqucnE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j_ByXHdjOM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-N4isYko1I And, of course... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CajdyoaSM0 (There was a really nice follow-up bit about this on his final Price episode, I'll try to find it. In the meantime...) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JI7NXpw8jFY

Bob Barker was great and deserved a bountiful tribute thread like this one we're going to give him. Sticking it to driftingmouse and all of the equally lovely alt-accounts is both a bonus and justice. Also, spay and neuter your pets!

Some of my fondest memories are from when my grandmother would babysit me and we'd watch The Price is Right together. I remember her yelling the prices at the TV or "HIGHER! LOWER!"  RIP Grandma and Bob.

99 is a pretty good run for someone who had to put up with dimwitted yokels too stupid to understand simple carnival games all day e: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqk1-q8gXcY Henry Lee Mucus fucked around with this message at 18:26 on Aug 26, 2023 |

My dad and I were just talking about how he was still alive a few weeks ago.

I doubt THIS happened to home viewers though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRYXSkH2LNE

My favorite thing Bob would do was to gently caress with and amplify contestants’ anxiety two or three times before pressing a button that revealed the actual price. Like, he would reach for the button and then pull his hand back and ask the contestant questions multiple times. Even the audience would get antsy and scream. poo poo was funny as hell and Bob really knew how to work the contestants and audience. Anyway, here’s a badass Punch Board clip that relates to what I’m saying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KL0nUTHU8k Bryan is the GOAT Punch Board contestant.

I don't know how to find a clip, but when I was a kid there was a time the player going second did the 601 thing, then the third player, peak dumbass with no foresight said 602

RIP to a legend. My parents and uncle were on the show, the uncle got called down and my parents had the crowd reaction shot. The episode didn't air though for months, and it was a big deal so I got to stay home that day and watch it. For the record my uncle made it to the stage, and had a chance at a car, but lost at that game where there are three prizes and scrambled numbers, and you have 10 chances to write down the correct price, starting with the smallest thing. He got the first two, but not the car. And then his spin of the wheel failed too. Good run Uncle Billy.

My favorite piece of useless trivia is: In the Happy Gilmore clip Bob insisted on doing his on fight scene. He was an ameture boxer, in the military I think, and didn't like the punches his stunt double was throwing
