Wow. 99! That's impressive, he had a long life. RIP
I always remember it was so fun as a kid to watch The Price is Right with my grandma when I'd miss school. Those were seemingly mundane moments then, but I'd give anything to go back for just one episode like that again. Good times.
When I was a kid and too young to stay home alone in the summer I would go to my grandma's and we would watch The Price is Right! That would have been in the very early 90s... I miss grandmas house lol
After a close family friend of mine died, I sat on the floor and watched old episodes of price is right on youtube. I felt like I was 5 years old again
Check out the Pluto.TV streams! They run a 24/7 stream of old TPIR episodes. It's ad-supported, but it's free and doesn't require an account.
Thanks! I meant to go back to my childhood, on a carefree day, and have fun watching it with my grandma. But I appreciate it!
LOL, I also used to watch TPIR with my grandparents, too! My mom would drop me off with them during the day while she went to work. I've got a lot of fond memories of watching the show with them. Even into my adulthood, they used to bring up TPIR whenever they'd call me, and tell me about all the great prizes they saw people win. They used to live in the area and went to a few tapings, too. I'm not sure who in the family it was that took their belongings when they died, but somewhere there's a Polaroid of my grandparents with Bob, Diane, Jan, and Holly. I wonder if I can find out who has it and get a scan of it somehow.
I really do miss those days, though. Simpler times.
