One of the first candidates was CBS Early Show Weatherman, Dave Price… Dave Price. Unfortunately, he didn’t make it. Mario Lopez – better known as Slater from Saved by the Bell – auditioned as Bob’s replacement. He didn’t make it either… too bad.
Here are some interesting facts about the Price is Right:
- Two people have fainted when they won the showcase.
- Vanna White appeared on the Price is Right as a contestant before she hosted Wheel of Fortune.
- The name of the song that plays during the Cliffhangers game is On the Franches Mountain.
- About 60,579 people have “come on down” in the past 35 years.
37 days until the Simpsons Movie.
