what’s up Drew?!?! Awesome! Anyway Kara, your early years seem to resemble mine almost identically, of course I was the one watching the broads and figuring out the price averages, my dad still had control of the remote, though:) I also loved the 420 reference…

I agree, the guy nailing the showcase showdown exactly was amazing. And if you look closely, I’m freakin’ pissed…

How about the recent episode where the guy in the Showcase bet exactly? I would say that’s gotta rank up there as a pretty amazing TPIR clip, right?

Wow. My last line made no sense.
I was trying to say it’s a sweet clip, but totally sweeter that everyone but Bob gets the 420 reference.

I should stop commenting this early in the morning.. sheeeeeeeesh

It’s pretty sweet.. but the fact that everyone in the audience knows whats going on.. and poor Bob doesn’t have a clue.

I know a guy who was a contestant on TPIR. He won a Winnebago camper and a couple thousand dollars (I forget how much but it was 5 figures). He had absolutely no use for a Winnebago. He couldn’t take the cash value of it, he had to take ownership of one and sell it on his own. The dealer bought it back but for less than it’s full value. Of course Marc was teased for years with people imitating Rod Roddy(?) announcing, “Marcus *Lastname* come on down, you’re the next contestant…!”

Like many from the younger generations, I spent numerous hours watching TPIR during the summer and on sick days. What made it better was when one of my favorite sitcoms–How I Met Your Mother–did an episode where Barney (the wonderful Neal Patrick Harris) went on TPIR and won everything on the show in a manner similar to what Dave said happened to his aunt. What made it even better was that Barney had been led to believe (since a small child) that his father was good ol’ Bob.

Seriously a genius combination of two great shows.

Search for “price is right flip flop cheater” for a good clip. I won’t describe it because I don’t want to ruin it.

I developed a ‘cough’ on numerous occasions just to stay home from school and watch TPIR. My mom was a soft touch.

People buy vowels on Wheel of Fortune because it helps to figure out longer puzzles. Like, if you have TH_ and a lot of words with nothing revealed, buying an E might help you figure out the rest of the words.
