But for gosh sakes, what will happen when Bob Barker himself goes to game show heaven?

For some reason, I was thinking about that the other day. :-)

1. They can hire Charles Barkley.
He can drag his fat ass across the stage five shows a week.

2. Smirky will be looking for work come next January.
Maybe this is something he can handle. Smile at people and feed them bullshit.

7. My uncle had breast cancer.
Men do get it. He was able to beat it, thankfully, but it made him very sick :(

12. Yes, they do.
Not as often as women do, and it doesn't get a lot of publicity like women's breast cancer does. For that reason, it can be embarrassing to talk about. But, men do have breast tissue. My uncle was a body builder at the time. He was young and in very good shape. We were quite shocked when it happened. I didn't know men got it until it happened to him, either.

13. I think she had an affair with Bob.
If I remember correctly. I know one of the models did. I watched an E True Hollywood Story about Price is Right once. The show has been riddled with scandal over the years.

14. I think you re thinking of Diane Parker
and yes I did have to search on that.

She filed the sexual harassment suit on Barker (it was THE first big one and got the ball rolling )which I think they filed out of court.

I think Janice Pennington said, or Barker said with her permission, that they too had messed around after her husband "died"-he disappeared and was assumed by many to be a spy, he was declared dead. Something like that.
