RIP Bob Barker (Remember to spay or neuter your pets.)

If you guessed 100, you were over. So sorry.

The Price is Wrong, bitch.

I seriously thought he died around 2016 or so.

 

 

RIP to the man who kept all of us company for an hour when we pretended to be sick to stay home from school.

Stay Hard Bob!

RIP Bob, you model bangin' mofo.

 

[HiggyBaby 2,538]

Well, shit. There goes a core childhood memory. RIP Bob. 

[shnsajax 3,591]

Damnit God! I said Pat Sajak not Bob Barker!

[Captain Ron 12,883]

RIP. Absolute legend. 

[Vito Andolini 9,126]

I know a lot of people who should be spayed or neutered. RIP Bob, may the afterlife have hotties like The Price is Right and better production values than Truth or Consequences.

Damn, he looked like he was 80 there and that was almost 30 years ago

[HenryJames 66,121]

Got as close as he could to 100 without going over. 

[Hate 20,112]

RIP to an icon of my youth. Damn, he will always be the GOAT for game show hosts.

[WhatTheBuck 28,788]

RIP Bob.

The Price is Right taped their last show in the Bob Barker Theater a while ago, it aired early this summer. They’re moving to a new set, I forget where. I don’t know if they’ve started taping new episodes there yet or when new episodes will return to TV. I’d be curious to see what kind of tribute they give him whenever that time comes. It would kind of be fitting if they haven’t started taping yet so they can use their first new episode as a salute to Bob Barker. Dude’s a legend. 

[AUS-97HORN 11,809]

an absolute keystone of my childhood.

if you had to stay home sick, you crawled out of bed to watch TPIR. 

 

My absolute greatest regret was in 2006. TPIR was going to start recording episodes on Jan 3, 2006, 2 weeks before that, One of my crew of lunatic Longhorn Fans had realized that tape date was perfect for us fools visting SoCal, and had talked to the TPIR producers and gotten 20 tickets for us to show up that day, fully decked out in UT Orange the day before the greatest football game ever played. 

we would have been exactly the kind of lunatics the show would have loved to have had on.   It would have been absolutely amazing.

But a few days before that taping, Bob had some sort of minor face surgery, something was taken off, and they couldnt hide the bandaid that covered the spot and the producers had to delay the taping for a week. 

That would have been epic. and we missed out because of a tiny fucking bandaid. 

 

RIP Bob, you will be missed

Trebek, Barker and Sajak were/are absolute legends.

While firmly on TeamHolly, Kathleen Bradley was no slouch either.

Lots of Happy Gilmore references.  He was in his early 70's when that came out.   Good living.  RIP.

Best tribute would be firing Drew.

Absolutely. Summer vacation, snow days, or sick days all meant The Price is Right. 

Requiescant en pace, Bob. You were an absolute legend. 

And don’t forget to get your pets spayed neutered.

yep.  tv on the weekdays just hit different.

[RomaVicta 29,929]

As a little boy, I was fascinated with Truth or Consequences just because of Bob Barker. I don't even remember how it was played. I just liked hearing and watching Bob Barker.

Great run, Mr. Barker. RIP

[RPM 26,322]

Damn, beat me to it. Truth or Consequences was awesome. RIP Bob.

Yeah….. no

Somewhere ol' Freaky Bob is up there and reliving the good ol' days before the producers went soft on him and is letting the female contestants reach down deep into his hundred dollar pocket to fish out that c-note.

He and Dawson talking about the good ole days. Maybe with Monty hall and the deals he used to make.

Probably setting up a threesome with Holly and Dian. When I ran a stereo store in the early 80’s price is right was on all the TVs. Any Holly, Dian, or Janice bikini segment basically shut down the store.

Drew owns TPIR and LMAD.

[billfromlaketravis 11,515]

The show was a lot more fun and vibrant with Bob Barker was the host. Impressive given his advanced age.

Truly the GOAT. My Mamaw didn’t walk very well. But we’d watch the Price is Right and bond over that. I think that was Bob’s best quality, bringing people together. RIP Bob. 

Drew Carey is just meh, mediocre. Better on sitcoms than as a host.

Good on Bob for no-selling that.  Fucking stoner

Didn’t know until I read an online obit that he was Native American. Huh…

Special tribute to Bob Barker on TPIR right now. No game, just an hour devoted to Bob. 

[WhatTheBuck 28,788]

That tribute episode of TPIR is up on YouTube in playlist format.

 

[Texzilla58 4,738]

This you?

I can at least say unlike Ron Johnson, Audio Specialist, aged 26, I didn’t have to take my ladies to a cold little league dugout. I had a fucking apartment at least.

That was an era though that being a stereo salesman was considered very cool. Probably because everyone knew we had good cocaine.

[Texzilla58 4,738]

Buck?
 

Buck on the other hand was a buffoon, who likely was only tolerated in the store because he brought over porn actresses and would invite the manager to a party or two.

I was working in Memphis. I did sell a stereo system to Gail Stanton, Playmate of the Month June 78. She was maybe the hottest woman I ever saw. I delivered it to her apartment to set it up. My imagined seduction of her was quashed when I arrived. Never saw her. I just was supervised by her Playboy “secretary/security” going.
