You're still ahead of me. I hadn't quite turned 10 when Bob's last show aired, though I was 10 and a quarter when Drew's first show aired. Now, I'm a couple months from 27, so yeah, it is scary to think some of us were still kids when Bob retired and now we're pushing 30.

As one who saw the very first episode back on Labor Day 1972, on a black and white TV set nevertheless, I would be giving almost anything to be "pushing 30"

Indeed time is a remarkable thing.  And I too am pleased that Drew seems very committed to remaining with the show as long as he possibly can.

Once upon a time 65 was considered "retirement age".  Later this month (May 2024) Drew will be turning 66.

Even after 17 years the shows seem fresher somehow.  Not to imply that things were stale toward Mr. Barker's final years, as the show was still fresh to some degree, but the show now is far fresher, especially in their new home.

If Drew somehow manages to tie Pat Sajak with syndicated Wheel, Drew would have to make it to age 90 and still be hosting Price.  That may be a bit unreasonable to hope for but he certainly could make it well into his late 70s or early 80s.

To think I was only 12 when Drew started!! More than half of my life has been with him as Price host!!

On Finish Line, they could easily have the 3 grocery products picked as horse “A” & the 3 products left as horse “B” & have them race across until they run out of money & the further horse wins the race.

On Range Game, I've been saying for years at least make the Range Finder $250 and the scale $1,000.   The RF would still take up 25% of the scale but there hasn't been a change here in 50+ years!
