@sugababyray29 Well, before they start taping, outside in the contestant holding area, potential contestants are interviewed by the contestant coordinator, who was Stan Blits. They are looking for people who would seem like ideal contestants for the show. Also, I was in the audience at the same taping. I didn't get called probably because I didn't get excited enough. This lady in front of me practiced getting excited, and she ended up playing Bonkers. How appropriate.
They spelled Ottawa wrong in the credits. I remember sitting in the audience watching and wondering if I was going to be picked, which I wasn't, and I was laughing to myself when a trip to Ottawa came up. Sure, it's far enough from where I live, but that would have brought me a little closer to Thunder Bay. I actually still have my name tag from the taping, along with the #250 tag, indicating the show to be A Mark Goodson Production.
thats awesome that you won Adam and that Bob Let u sign off!! and the mere fact that a fellow UF alumni Announcer Rich Fields came up and shook your hand and hugged you man !! How awesome is that and congrats again!!)
I've been looking for this episode for a while because I attended the same taping with my dad. I was wearing a brown Price is Right t-shirt. I was sitting towards the back on the camera's right, although I'm not sure if you would be able to see me on there or not. You may be able to see my dad, he was wearing a light grey Toronto Blue Jays t-shirt.
Price spells Ottawa about as well as Wheel of Fortune did on the 10/14/08 episode(when they showed a shot of the contestant toteboards the night the Million was won in the bonus round)
This was one I wanted to tape but they never showed it during the summer reruns. This and the episode where the girl played Ten Chances and did everything wrong and won the car on the last chance ( Bob: I DONT BELIEVE IT ! ( SITS DOWN) I DONT BELIEVE IT !). Both these episodes were memorable from the 35th season. Well, I do have 54 episodes taped from the 35th season, including the last one. Nice video adam.
I watched this episode when it happened. If it reaires again before the new season starts I will tape it to keep it. I have been taping a few of Bob's last shows to keep. Congrads on winning.
I watched this show as well. I am a gators fan as well. so rich and I should get along really well. I am only 15 so in about 4 years I should meet him. I also want to take over his job when I am old enough.
I would haved bid 14,000 and I would have been over. On her's I would have bid around 21,000. What are you gonna do with that car? Hahahahah! Did you go to the show alone? Okay! There we go! The early risers celebrate! Rich wore a hat that day?
Lucky~ Nice job!

It's always nice to hear contestant feedback. I always wanted to know what it would be like to be up on a stage like that. I'd be nervous.

Here's a good closing line; Before you make that next big purchase, check once, check twice , but make sure the price is REALLY right!

What's wrong with "Help control the pet population. Have your pets spade or neutered."? You're trying to make it sound like "Supermarket Sweep".
