The Price is Right - Final Penny Ante playing

[nlafavore]

Not the best pricing game, anyway.

[thegameshowguy1]

People of YouTube! Please don't be sad! I have sent a tweet to Mr. Drew Carey stating that: "Thinking about bringing back the retired pricing game "Penny Ante" that ended 10 years ago? I hear that many people want it back." So hopefully, Drew will answer back with a solid YES or disappointing NO. So let's cross our fingers!

I mourn the loss of Penny Ante to this day! :-(

[whammy850]

What an untimely end to this classic game. If it'd only lasted long enough for Drew Carey to have done it a few times... I'm sure he'd have found a way to have fun with that weird sound effect.

:(

Had there not been a rainstorm when they decided to unretire it in Season 31, this game would've still been in the rotation today.

[eXpExor]

HIIII MOM!

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

I missed "Penny Ante". :( I remember the sound effect was used in "The Joker's Wild" in a bonus round where you can win money and Jokers to avoid the devil.

[Firewizard23]

I'm not sad that this game is gone.

[pseudohippie55]

I love Rod and eggs.

RIP to a fantastic announcer and a kick ass pricing game

[mphlohi]

Final playing was a perfect playing.

[offtosiberia]

I wonder what ever happened to the old games they don't even play on the show anymore are they creating new price is right games to eliminate another

[telewatcher89]

What a great way to go out. I still miss this game and it's sound effects to this day, especially since there are no reruns.

[germanname1990]

RIP Penny Ante. That was a fun game. How sad that its own life was deteriorating. If they could ever bring it back with a new design, that would be terrific.

[namk19]

sure in this day an age i'm sure they could spruce it up some

[whammy850]

Fine way for this classic game to retire. I still miss it even today...

[WarioBarker88]

With a result like that, you wouldn't believe that the game would never be seen again...and end up retired five years later.

[nextbarker]

That Dining Room cue, is another theme you don't hear anymore.

[KoraggRules]

what happen to penny ante when is was gone?

[PriceRight89]

Penny Ante's board was mistakenly left out in the rain and damaged beyond repair. The staff initially planned on designing a new one but the plans didn't get through.

[KoraggRules]

@PriceRight89 How do you this?

[JoeySymphony]

That seems like a pretty perilous place to put a carton of eggs.

[rksncu]

The final playing results in a win!!!

[puppyshoes]

That is not bad

[cartoongameshowfan76]

I love this game especially for the wubba wubba sound!

[rwboa22]

RIP to CBS Double Dare/Penny Ante/CBS Tic Tac Dough buzz-in/Joker's Wild "Face the Devil" wheel sound

1976-2002

[scubasteve0225]

i used to hate this game.

[CSIS25]

do you love it now ?

[nextbarker]

Am I right, they retired this cue for the diming room?

[Hondo20132]

1:43 and 1:47 are historic moments.

[Jnelson09Returns]

Glad to see it went out on a high note. RIP Penny Ante, 1979-2002.

[nextbarker]

This was the final time we heard THIS CUE also.

[whammy850]

That game was teh SHTUFFZ!!!1!!!

RIP Penny Ante...

[nextbarker]

When did Penny Ante debut on TPIR?

[csifan18]

January 25, 1979

[quiznationrules]

Weird rules on the first five playings as well. Red board, real pennies, prices scattered across board, not half and half, get over 100 pennies in "NO"s and you lose.

[asianles69love]

I love the sound effects on this game!

[texkirby]

ME TOO.

[JamesC666]

i also liked the skee ball game

[srf1969]

I think you meant "Superball" because there is no skee ball game on "The Price is Right". I guess Superball is also a retired price is right game as well.

[gameshowguy2000]

Well, the Skee ball game IS named Superball, he probably forgot the name.

[itstheit]

I used to love the game where they got up on platforms and hit each other with giant Q-tips.

[bretodom]

One of my all time favorites. And my most missed retired game...next to Joker of course :)

[Gameshowboy]

bluelobster once had this.

[Charmolution]

Holy shit, it actually worked properly!

[jerhouck]

boy,i really miss bump. i wish it came back.

i love the wubba sound effect.

[campsports3]

and that sound was also used on tic tac dough in 1978

[domirules28]

i vaguely remember hearing this sound effect on an alex trebek gameshow called "pitfall" when i was very young... can anyone confirm or deny this?

[quiznationrules]

Double Dare, not Pitfall.

[auburn4wins]

I miss this game, too. The staff chose to retire it in the 31st season because of mechanical troubles. It was placed outside by the garbage. They later changed their minds, but the board had been damaged beyond repair in a rainstorm by then.

Recently ousted producer Roger Dobkowitz PROMISED fans that the game would return, but the process of re-designing the game board never took off, and the game was canned for good in the spring of last year. Proof positive that talk is cheap.

[zachhoran]

You can hear that sound effect on Double Dare(Trebek) reruns on Sunday night/Monday mornings from 1-2AM on GSN.

[gameshowguy2000]

And on Classic TJW, if it ever returns.

[btn2271984]

Boy, I really miss Penny Ante. I wish it came back. I love the wubba sound effect.
