Let's say you get lucky and get a chance to be on the Price is Right. Besides spinning the Big Wheel (everyone's own fantasy I know), which game would you want to play?
With so many to choose from its a tough decision...Plinko, Cliff Hangers, Putt to Win a Car etc Ever since I was a wee lad I always was enthralled by the Punch Game...so that's my choice

I always wanted to do one of the ones where you guessed the next number in the price of the car... there are several options for this... There's the one where you pull the numbers out of the bag trying not to pull out the X's, or the one where you roll the die and guess if the number is higher or lower than what you rolled or the one where you ask "gentlemen, do I have four numbers right" - or the one where you step from square to square getting the numbers the car.
Plinko would rule though.
-
Oooh, the "gentlemen, do I have 4 numbers right" game is a good one. One of my friend's brothers won a bunch of stuff including a showcase showdown when he was on. Lucky Bastard >:(

Oh man, I grew up on the Price is Right. I cannot believe that Bob Barker is still alive (if he really is ;)) but I watched this from about age 5 onwards, so 35 years now. Something like that anyway. Always watched it on sick days when home from school and now as an adult I still watch it whenever I can. Sad, ain't it?
I thought the question was going to be your favorite Price is Right model but that may have been wishful thinking. Hard to answer now that they've gone with the rotating door scheme. Seldom the same three models on for more than a week in a row. Probably the producers decision given that Bob is a wee bit of a skank and probably did all of the former regulars. Maybe not Holly, but certainly Dianne and Jan.
While we're at it (and this may not apply to the kiddies, as they won't have a clue) but which model do you prefer:
Dianne - posed in Playboy in the twilight of her career
Jan - posed in Playboy prior to being on TPIR (I think her mom was one of the early models in Playboy as well)
Holly - no nude pics to be found (yeah, I looked) but strangely hot
As far as the games go, I think putting for the car would be my fave. So many cool games though. Neat topic.

I'm 24 and I have the exact same memories... my favorite part about being sick was being able to watch the price is right.
Of course, probably everyone who went to school at any point in the last 3 decades feels the exact same way.
-
Especially being young and watching the aforementioned beauties.
My favorite was Diane, she's got it where it counts :)
-
plinko all the way. no skill necessary, just you, gravity and several dozen metal pegs stand between fortune or pocket change.
well i guess there was the skill part of getting the chips to begin with, but is it really considered skill to know the retail value of rice a roni?
i haven't watched this show for awhile. not since... well, you know...

Plinko seems to be the people's choice no doubt, there's just some mystical draw for me of people punching through the thin membrane and plunging their hands in the dark holes and pulling out the big prize
-
hmmm... i'd say there's a little more than myth behind that fascination there...

Are we still talking The Price is Right here?
Cause I like that game too.

Does anyone have that hot broad's phone number? :-*

Judging by her hair color...and Bob's hair and suit, I'd say Rod Roddy is playing Punchboard with her in the great unknown
-
That's sad. I hope she had some kids....or grandkids.
-
Plinko was spiffy, and I remember actually feeling a little bit anxious and excited, even from home. Could've been the prize girls though, I dunno.
But I liked the game with the mountain climber as well... The song was creepy, but I remember as a young child how I would sorta be scared when the dude went over the edge. There was an equal rush when he'd just stop at the very end.
It was cool... And I wanted to play with the game itself with my G.I. Joes on it. Dunno why, but it looked like a neat Cobra Mountain playset to me.
-
I also like the game with the yoddler. It's best when it almost falls, but doesn't. I also like the baseball game where there is a sack of numbers and strikes.

Plinko was the bomb yo!! It was a game of skill and grace and I always loved to see people have near heart attacks as their little puck would go down the board.

Plinko.... America's Game!!!
-
I remember watching a little old lady win top prize on Plinko. It was one of my favorite episodes.
-
Haven't watched it since I was a kid, but I have to go with Plinko, too. Hurray for me. ::) All I really wanted to do was go:

The price is wrong, bitch!

Fun topic :). I'm another one who has been catching this show off and on since I was a kid. I watched it probably most regularly in college, when class schedule allowed. We still catch it from time to time now, when home from work, and its still fun to watch.
So many good games that have been mentioned, and I enjoy them all too. Always liked the punching game, as well as the putting, but I'd probably have to go with plinko. Oh, and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who found the mountain climber song a little bit on the creepy side. That game was pretty good too though.
-
God, who hasen't grown up watching The Price Is Right. I remember Bob when he came out with his grey/white hair! :o
Best game, so many to think of. Punch-a-Bunch, Hole in One, Plinko, Cliff Hangers, Range Game,Let 'em Roll...
Oh & of course Heather! ;)

Oh & of course Heather! ;)
Picture please.

The rest you have to find! :P

Yeah, I'll get Holly, Dianne and Jan up later (not from work :-X) but I was unsure of who you were talking about, so wanted to see. I don't remember her :-\
-
Ah, Heather Kozar, former PMOY. (http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/images/smilies/drool.gif)
-
Jared...its hard not to look at Bob the same way after the joy that was Happy Gilmore. I think HG is one underrated comic classic. I generally am not a big fan of Sandler movies but that one made me chortle more than once. Maybe its the whole golf thing

Oh & of course Heather! ;)
Picture please.

Damn, I didn;t know heather kozar was a price is right girl. If it wasn't on so damn early in the morning, I'd watch it again. Like mosnab, I regularly watched it when I was in college before having to leave for class, but since then I don't think i've watched much if any price is right.
-
Heather was on only for a short time, 2001/2002.

WHABAM! :o I'll take that to go, Dale.

Plinko is the game I would choose. Heather Kozar is the model of my choice. I was bummed out when she left. Dianne would come next. It's funny how we all prefer the two who were in Playboy. Or, maybe it isn't. :)
