Considering the above list plus the Perfect Bid documentary constitutes pretty much all of his public appearances since retiring, I can't imagine we'll get much discussion out of this topic...

My ranking of the top two pricing games about balancing scales are thus follows:

1. Balance Game (06)
2. Balance Game (84)
Quote from: Bill Todman
"The sign of a good game, is when you don't have to explain it every day. The key is not simplicity, but apparent simplicity. Password looks like any idiot could have made it up, but we have 14 of our people working on that show. There is a great complexity behind the screen. It requires great work to keep it simple."

When I saw this thread, I thought it was kind of a goofy idea.  Thank you guys for confirming it and being witty about it.

I'll just add, the only post Price appearance of Bob that I know of that hasn't been mentioned was this State Farm commercial:

"Audience, if you're scared buy a dog!"

Oh, and don’t forget that time Bob endorsed a Congressional candidate!

Pardon my language, but I do believe we all need to calm the f*** down.
