All right, gang. The show I attended back on December 13, 2025 has finally aired and I can now give my (lengthy) taping report, including everything that lead to my unforgettable experience as a contestant on The Price is Right Tonight...
Back in October, there was a posting here on Golden-Road.net that a Canadian version of The Price is Right would be launching in the next couple of months and they were looking for people to be in the audience, and by extension, to potentially be contestants. This seemed like a grand thing to pursue since schlepping out to Los Angeles to Haven Studio would be a much bigger undertaking for me being in Ontario and a much harder sell to anyone who potentially might want to come along. The post had a link to an audition fill-out form, but you needed to audition with a group of four in order to be considered (probably so they would have more guaranteed people in the audience and less need for potential seat fillers). I was able to convince my friends Shane, Cliff and Adam to audition, as well. I filled out the forms for us and sent it in.
About a week later, I received an e-mail back from The Price is Right Tonight casting department asking for a video to be sent in, as well. I prepared a three minute video filmed in my living room where I made it clear that I was a very big Price is Right fan and produced several pieces of my collection to prove it, including the various video games, Bob Barker's autobiography Priceless Memories, the various board games, including the first edition “New Price is Right” from 1972 and capping off with my autographs from Drew Carey and from Bob Barker, who signed it “To a loyal friend and true.”
After submitting that video, a couple of weeks later, another e-mail came in from the casting department, asking us to submit a video of all four of us to show off how excited were to be considered to be on the show. Since Shane, Cliff and Adam are further removed in the city and we all had busy schedules, it would prove problematic to get us all together to film a group audition. I was trying to think of what I could come up with for an audition video that we could film remotely, that I could edit together and that would set us apart from every other video that would be sent in. What I ultimately came up with was taking the intro of the real show (I used an episode from season 39 since it had the best light border of the Drew Carey era, in my view) and editing us into it as if George Gray was calling us down to be the first four contestants (I dubbed out the real contestants' names with my own voice). After seamlessly cutting from us in a four by four shot to Drew coming through the doors to us cheering and applauding enthusiastically, the video cut to each of us with the light border individually explaining why we wanted to be on The Price is Right Tonight and why we needed to win the big prizes, as per the casting department's instructions (I backed the video with the $1,000,000 Spectacular theme for fun). Once completed, I sent the video in.
A few weeks later, I received a new e-mail from the producers saying that were going to be in the audience on December 13 for the 1:00 taping. They also wanted to meet with us before then on Google Meet to get to know us on a face to face basis. We set the call up for November 21 and met with Kevin, one of the producers. He explained that they loved our video and that it was very likely that one of us would be selected to participate in the show, which certainly got my heart racing with excitement. He explained he would meet with us again on the day of the taping to make sure we were good and hype, to which I advised him he didn't have to worry about that! He also advised us that they wanted us to come up with some ideas for group shirts. Now honestly, I wasn't terribly excited about that – I knew from all my years watching the daytime version that the shirts didn't matter to the contestant selection process (at least on the daytime show) and I would have been perfectly content to just dress normally for the show but I wasn't about to say or suggest anything that might upset our chances to be on the show, so we all enthusiastically agreed we'd come up with something.
After bandying about some ideas for group shirts that I was less than enthusiastic about that sounded like the usual fare, one of the other guys suggested maybe we could do a flashy shirt. It was at that point that a light bulb appeared over my head and thought it would be great if we could get sequined jackets like Rod Roddy used to wear on the show! It would be a deep cut reference to anyone watching the show (or working on the show, for that matter!) who remembered Rod's jackets all those years ago and it would certainly set us apart from everyone else in the audience! So, off to Amazon we went to find some Rod Roddy-style sequined jackets. We managed to find a relatively inexpensive manufacturer of just what we needed and got them in four colours – Shane did purple, Adam did pink and Cliff did red while I opted for gold, since that was Rod's most commonly seen colour.
It's about a four hour trek from Windsor to Toronto, where the show was going to be taped so we elected for a train ride since it was the winter season and road conditions on the highway might prove treacherous if the weather decided not to cooperate. We went the day before just to hedge our bets – we didn't want to take a chance of getting delayed on the day of the taping. Around 12:30, we caught an Uber that would take us from our Air BnB to the CBC Studio on John Street where the show was being taped.
We walked into the building and checked in with the receptionist who was busily handing out nametags to everyone who had also auditioned and checked in. We got our own nametags and joined the line of other would-be hopeful contestants who were waiting to get into the studio. Regrettably, I had failed to consider that the nametag might have a hard time staying stuck to the sequined jacket so I spent a good deal of time trying to secure it! As we took a look around, we definitely stood out from everyone else and it wasn't long before the other audience members were asking if they could take their pictures with us! I chatted with a few of them and asked if they had ever been out to L.A. to see the daytime version and a lot of them said they had been to see the show with Drew – one lady said she had tried to see the show during Bob's final season but it didn't end up working out.
After about 20 minutes in line, Kevin the producer, came over to us and pulled us out of the line. He was in amped up mode and trying to get us amped up. It didn't take much to meet that energy level – he asked all four of us, one at a time, to pretend we were up on stage with Howie Mandel and how we would answer “Where are you from, what do you do and why do you need to win today?” Cliff and Shane gave their best answers with lots of enthusiasm, Adam gave his answer with his usual high energy level and he got to me – I was basically bounding back and forth with excitement at this point. During our original Google Meet call, Kevin told me don't go with being a Price is Right superfan as why you needed to win, come up with another reason. This time, I was prepared to say “I need to win a truck because my mom is a big truck enthusiast and hers recently was a write-off so I need to win her a new one.” He considered that answer and said “You know what? If you get up on stage, go with the fact that you're a Price is Right superfan!” I told him it wouldn't be a problem while my friend Adam quickly quizzed me “What was the SECOND game on The Price is Right” to which I immediately blurted back “BONUS GAME!”, much to Kevin's approval. After that, we went back to the line to check our coats.
Having been to Television City for a taping in the 39th season, I was well aware of the fact that they probably had production staffers out and about in the line as well checking to see what people's excitement levels were like, so I was basically bouncing up and down like I was about to jump into a pro wrestling match. When we checked our coats, one staffer with a headset on (whom I later learned was one of the floor directors) said to me “Make sure you don't check the wrong coat.” and I laughed and said “Not a chance!” We went into an elevator with a group of other would-bes and up to the 10th floor where Studio 40 was located (where other programs such as Dragon's Den, Family Feud Canada and Deal or No Deal Canada have taped). There were already about 75 people up there waiting to get in so we joined them, took more pictures with people and chatted with them. One of the production staffers came over to me and said he loved our jackets – I told him were were “The Rod Roddy Cover Band” and he laughed and said that he appreciated our tribute as he was said he was a big Price is Right fan, as well and he noted that he had set up the playlist of Price is Right music playing in the background. I told him “Good call on putting The Cats in there.” He was gobsmacked that I knew the names of the music cues and there was another guy off at the front of the line (he was disguised as an audience member but I later found out he was a staffer, too) who fist bumped me and said “Wow, he IS a superfan!” He explained he was told NOT to use the main theme at all (as we would come to find out, this version tends to downplay the usual main theme in the typical places) – I asked him if the Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour theme was in there and he confirmed it was with a smirk and added “Unfortunately, we won't be playing Super-Ball!! on this version.” which I thought was very amusing. He also said he had been to the show when Bob was hosting. Real nice guy... definitely “a loyal friend and true of The Price is Right.”
After about 30 minutes waiting here, the doors finally opened and they led us into the studio. I was immediately impressed with what they were able to put together. The set looked like it was a condensed version of the Haven Studios set but definitely felt more primetime with a darker colour scheme, black floor with three red Goodson asterisks and only two doors, one of which was RED. Door #4 was in the corner of the studio while the center of the back dominated by a big Price is Right Tonight logo. All in all, very impressive looking and well done considering the space they had to work with.
I saw a bunch of people in the audience take their phones out and start snapping photos. Since they hadn't told us not to, I definitely did the same thing and started snapping photos, as well. We were told to just sit anywhere so we opted for the front row to the left of the center section since it was open. After about 10 minutes there, Kevin came over to us and recommended we move about four rows up because “you'll be on camera a lot more up there.” So, we moved up. The loudspeakers were blasting out a lot of pop hits to keep the audience energized, such as Pharrel Williams' “Happy” and “Backstreet's Back” by the Backsteet Boys. It wasn't long before the entire set resembled more of a rave than a game show taping – I don't think my friends expected anything quite like this!
About about 15-20 minutes of music and dancing, the audience warm-up came out (also named Kyle). He explained a few things about what they needed us, as the audience to do, such as stay high energy, applaud, cheer, yell out prices and suggestions and “don't have a RBF (resting Prizes face).” He was very good at his job and he made the audience laugh. He had a couple of people from the audience practice how to come on down to Contestant's Row (including Zain who ended up being one of the first four contestants) and then said the director wanted to get some generic shots of the audience cheering and applauding (I assume it was for editing purposes and/or for making promos for the show), so he lead us through a few of those as the jib camera swept over the crowd. He then got something in his IFB about how the director wanted “a shot of the guys in the sparkling jackets to stand up and everyone react to them.” So, we got singled out for our own exclusive camera time! He got another one for the bachelorette party in the row in front of us so we did the same for them.
After another few minutes, the dance music came back on and he advised us to pace ourselves as far as energy spent because the taping would take so long and you didn't want to be tired by the end of it (“it's not a sprint – it's a marathon”). Again, I was well aware that the producers were probably watching audience to see if any of their potential contestant picks lulled or looked bored or anything so I was bouncing along with the music with everything I had. After about another 10 minutes, they said they were about to start taping and the floor director counted the audience down.
Rather than start off with the traditional “Here it comes...!” intro that the daytime version uses, Howie Mandel came through the big doors before any contestants were called to the remixed version of the main theme that is occasionally used. He chatted to the audience briefly and introduced Ashley, the model for the show, who came down the audience aisle near us with a microphone and had a bit of banter with Howie before he threw it to Ben, the announcer, to call down the first four contestants.
As it was when I went to the show in 2010, the crowd is so loud during the come on down call downs that I had a very hard time hearing the names being called. One of the staffers had the names on cue cards off near door #2 so that helped. After the first three names were called, I could hear him say “Kyle C. Haight – come on down!” I immediately jumped into my friends astonished arms that it had happened! I was going to be a contestant on The Price is Right! I ran down to Contestant's Row and jumped into the arms of Zain, the contestant at the second podium, who was just as excited as I was! I was so excited that my glasses came flying off my face when I hugged Zain (fortunately, I caught them!) Howie called for the first item up for bids and then...
...STOP TAPE. Howie went backstage off door #2 and Trent, the producer that joked with me not to check the wrong coat earlier, came over to us in Contestants Row and told us we needed to go backstage to get mic'd up. They led us off the set near where we came in where the sound technician got us all mic'd up. I noticed my nametag had gotten a little crumpled and asked Kevin if it needed to be replaced – he said it was okay but had another one prepared just in case. They also gave us each a bottle of water and led us back to Contestants Row. We were told not to lean into the microphones on the row, just to stand up straight and not to put our hands on it if we could help it.
They brought the first item up for bids out on center stage while I could see the grocery items for Let 'Em Roll behind the smaller Race Game-esque curtain they brought in to conceal the stage. Kevin came over to us and discreetly told us not to bid lower than $1,400. I was little caught off guard by this but I surmised it was probably so they didn't have to do any reshoots if there were overbids and/or to avoid any ridiculously low bids. Howie came back out and we resumed taping. The first item up for bids was an assortment of high-grade pots and pans. I was going to be the first bidder – Howie asked me if I knew how to cook and I answered “I've been accused of trying.” which got a laugh (this was edited out of the show). I bid $1,600. Zain went next and bid while the other two bid, as well. Howie read off the actual retail price and Zain was the closest so he went up on stage to play Let 'Em Roll while the three of us were directed to stand off to the side of the what would be the green podium on the daytime show to watch the game unfold.
Door #2 opened to reveal an SUV and Howie explained the rules of the game. I noted he said that there were dollar signs on the cubes instead of car symbols, which I thought was odd because they were still playing for a car. In any case, he had Ben describe the three grocery items and had Ashley reveal the price of the first one. He then asked Zain if the actual price was higher or lower... which I thought was also odd because that's not the typical way to play the game. Apparently Ashley agreed with that assessment and told Howie he had made a mistake. He then got a message in his own IFB that he had explained the rules wrong and laughed it off. They reset the item and he redid it again and explained the rules correctly that Zain had to say whether the next item was higher or lower. The game then proceeded normally and Zain got all three rolls. With two cars (or dollar symbols) on his first roll, he rolled again and got two more but missed on the last roll, so he won $500 cash. As Howie threw it to commercial, I noted they used the Come on Down music in lieu of the regular Price is Right theme. They must have made a deliberate choice to avoid using the regular theme as much as possible.
We then returned to Contestants Row as Howie retreated backstage. The sound guy came out and wanted to check my microphone and adjusted that a bit before we resumed taping. Another contestant was called down. This guy, Rick, came out of the aisle and RIPPED HIS SHIRT OFF like he was Hulk Hogan to reveal another shirt with a picture of younger Howie with hair. Howie got a real kick out of that. Again, they stopped tape to get Rick mic'd up and they gave him another nametag. As a fan of pro wrestling myself, I asked Rick if he was a big Hulk Hogan fan and we chatted briefly about that. We resumed taping briefly and then they stopped again because it was decided for continuity reasons that it would make more sense on air of Howie gave him a new nametag rather than have it magically reappear. Howie stuck it on Rick's forehead for laughs and we resumed.
The next item up for bids was an array of baby bottles, warmers and accessories. As before, Kevin gave us a minimal threshold to bid, which in this case was $500. I knew after the last time I would be last to bid. When we resumed, Howie asked ME what my bid was and then it was explained to him that it was Rick that had to bid first since he was the newest addition to the row. So, we started over again and he asked Rick what he bid. Rick went with $600 and down the line it went. The other two bid really high and I didn't think they'd be as expensive as all that, so I bid $661. Howie revealed the actual retail price and I WON! Since my best friend and his wife recently had a baby in September, I knew all that stuff was going to them. Ecstatic that I was heading out of Contestants Row, I jumped up at Rick in celebration and, once again, nearly lost my glasses off my face. Recovering, I ran towards the lights on the stage to get to the stage proper and looked for Howie and found him up on the turntable.
I dashed over that and jumped to the top of the steps. Howie asked me if I was into athletics considering I ran and jumped up there. My mind was on a little bit of autopilot mode at that point so I said “I've been accused of trying that as well” for lack of anything more clever to say in the moment. He implicated that I seem to have been accused of a lot of things in my life which got a laugh. He asked me what I did for a living and I explained that I was “the office manager of a telecommunications dealership in Leamington, Ontario.” He noted my sparkling jacket and I made sure to point out that myself and my crew were “The Rod Roddy Tribute Band” and called out Shane, Adam and Cliff in the audience. Unfortunately, all of this banter got edited out of the show. I also explained that I was a Price is Right superfan and knew all the games backwards and forwards. He then had me ask Ben to reveal the next prize as a host would. I expected the doors to open but in this case, they used Door #4 at the back to reveal a trip to Cuba and a $5,000 Zipcar voucher.
Since there was no actual turntable, the monitor on the main panel where the turntable would have been changed to reveal that I was playing the Clock Game for that trip. I was very okay with that because I knew there was a very good chance I was winning this game. Howie explained that “since you know all the games forward and backward, you only have to go forward with this” and I said “Well, technically I can go backward in this” and he said, rather amusedly “Yes, I suppose you can” which got a laugh. That also got edited out of the show. In any case, he explained the rules of the game to me. To be honest, I was only sort of partially listening because I knew all too well what I had to do. The two prizes I was to bid on where out in front of door #1, one of which was a backpack and the other was a watch (although, I could only really see the backpack from where I was standing).
I decided to just play the odds on the game and started at $499. Lower. $399. Lower. $299. Higher. $350. Higher. $375. Higher. $380. Higher. $390. Higher. 91-92-93-94... and then I heard a ding like I had got it so I stopped but Howie looked at me to keep going, so I continued 95-96... ding-ding-ding-ding. I wondered how that would play out on the show but there was definitely some kind of audible signal that went off which is why I stopped. In any case, they edited it together fairly well and even with that, I had only used 10 seconds so plenty of time to win the watch. There was a little bit of discussion between Howie and the floor director at this point because apparently he wasn't standing where they needed him to. After a minute of that, we resumed the game for the watch. $399. Higher. $499. Higher. $599. Higher. $699. Higher. $799...$899...$999. Lower. $950. Higher. $970. Lower. $960. Ding-ding-ding-ding. I had JUST WON ON THE PRICE IS RIGHT. I was ecstatic. Howie congratulated me and threw it to commercial. As he did, he walked towards the camera. They did want to reshoot the end of the game because they wanted me to head off stage and have Howie ask Ben for another contestant, so we did the end of the game again as if I just won. Being involved in theater and television production before, I knew what they needed me to do and I think Howie picked up on that, as well. I “won” again, celebrated a bit and ran off camera like they asked and that was that! As Howie walked off stage for the break, he fist-bumped me and said “Nice job!”
I headed to the front row center and replaced the seat filler who was there who was the guy out in the line who was impressed I knew the names of the music cues earlier. He congratulated me, as well, as did Zain who was already down there. I offered him the same on his money win in Let 'Em Roll and the next segment proceeded. Rick ended up winning that one (with a perfect bid!) and was to play Hole in One or Two for an ATV rather than a car. Howie asked him if he golfed at all and he admitted he did not. Things turned from bad to worse for Rick as he picked one of the most expensive items first and the crowd turned on him big time, urging him to change his mind. Even the staffer seat-filler next to me on the right said to me “He's already lost” to which I agreed with. When he was done with the items, Howie asked him what he did for a living and he, rather embarrassed, admitted he worked in a grocery store in the grocery department, no less. Howie offered him the chance to change the order of the items and the crowd was SCREAMING at him to put the low cost salsa on the first line, at least, but he didn't change anything. Sure enough, the Haloumi Cheese Fries were $10.19 and the crowd groaned. The salsa, $2.97. He'd be putting from the first line. Both of his putts missed the hole and he lost.
When he came over to sit with Zain and I in the front row, I asked him what happened and he said he thought those Haloumi Cheese Fries were CRACKERS. Whoops. He asked me if he won a $500 bonus for bidding his item up for bids perfectly and I said that would be the case on the daytime version. We asked Trent who was nearby if he did in fact with a $500 bonus – he checked with the prize department and said there was no bonus as they didn't have that in the budget.
Now, I thought were about to spin the wheel but Howie called for another contestant to come on down. I asked Trent what the sequence of events were to be and he said they were going to do four games then the showcase showdown then the showcase. They were going to have the top two spinners on the wheel advance to the showcase. Again, trying to put a different spin on the game than the usual daytime show.
The fourth game was Punch-a-Bunch which Jacqui was going to play, which was a surprise to me as it wasn't included in the list of games we were told this version was going to play. Howie explained that while $25,000 was the typical top prize, he wanted to do something a bit more special since this was The Price is Right Tonight. He asked Ashley when did The Price is Right begin and she said 1972 with Bob Barker but Howie corrected her and said it actually began in 1956 with Bill Cullen – 70 years ago (the Barker reference was edited out show the show). To that end, he was going to increase the top prize from $25,000 to $70,000!
Jacqui ended up with three punches and rather than punch them all at once, she went one at a time and it was Ashley that pulled the slips out, rather than Howie. Her first punch netted her $2,500. The audience urged her to throw it back so she did and punched again for a $1,000 slip. She threw that back and ended with another $1,000 slip. Howie wanted to reveal where the $70,000 slip was which resulted in a rather humourous blooper where the ring around the hole came off on his wrist when he pulled his punch out. He claimed he was bleeding and went backstage to get it bandaged. I'm wasn't sure if that was legit or just a gag, but nevertheless, I was the only one of the four contestants to win their pricing game so I thought to myself “I'm spinning the wheel last.”
They brought the wheel out and they told us we'd be spinning the order we played our games. This time, I asked them if that was correct since I had won the most but Trent confirmed that we were going to go in the order that we played. Zain spun first and went over $1.00 so he was eliminated. I spun the wheel and, even though I dislike it when Drew Carey asks the contestant if they wanted to say hello to anyone while the wheel is spinning, I did promise my coworkers I'd say hello to them if I made it on the show since we have The Price is Right 24/7 channel going at the office. I also made sure to say hello to my best friend Tyler, my other friend Adam, my mom and Tyler's mom Wendy. I ended up with 80 cents and decided to quit.
Rick spun 80 cents as well and did not want to spin again, so we tied. Jacqui went over so Rick and I knew that we were on our way to the showcase – we were going to spin off to see who would be given the option to bid or pass in the showcase. I spun again and I made sure to get in a blanket hello to everyone else. Howie sort of razzed me for that saying I couldn't remember any of their names, ergo, I didn't really care. I ended up with 55 cents and Rick ended up with 15 so I would be in the top winner spot going into the showcase.
The prize producer took us both off stage to explain the rules of the showcase to us and where to look on stage to see the prizes and told us the minimum threshold to bid was around $21,000. We returned to the turntable where the showcase podiums had been installed and Kyle, the audience warm-up, kept the crowd going by having dance contests and giving away gift cards and so on. Rick and I chatted between us about how surreal of an experience this had been. He told me he was actually at his grandfather's funeral earlier that day and then had to come here and be excited which he found a strange dichotomy. We chatted about wrestling a bit and just wished each other all the luck on the showcases. I couldn't help but just look at the walls of the turntable and all around the set and marvel at the fact that I was on the set of The Price is Right and had played a pricing game and spun the wheel and was now about to bid on a showcase. It was truly a moment where time stood still.
Howie came up on stage and chatted with us a bit – Rick asked him if he wanted to go to the bar with us after the show and Howie looked like he was seriously considering it for a bit. The taping then resumed and he explained that I'd have the choice to bid on showcase #1 or pass it to Rick and wait for showcase #2. The first showcase was unveiled which consisted of an outdoor sauna, 12 months of prepared meals and a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. I couldn't help but think of the episode of How I Met Your Mother where Barney is a contestant and he has the choice to bid or pass on the first showcase and he snorts “No car and an above ground spa? PASS.” I phrased it a bit more magnanimously, though and deferred the showcase to Rick since “I already won a trip and I would like Rick to win one... only if he gets married there” which got a laugh from the crowd. Rick bid $21,000 on his showcase and now it was up to me.
The second showcase began and door #2 opened to reveal a 97” LED television, leather home theatre chairs, a bathtub with black cast iron legs, a modern toilet (I was trying to see if I could organically work the word “terlet” on air but I couldn't manage it) and a trip to Costa Rica. Sadly, no car to bid on but that was okay (I was unaware at the time how this version handles cars). I considered everything that was presented to me and bid $24,321. Howie threw it to commercial and we stopped tape. As we were waiting for the taping to resume, I could see on the monitor near door #2 that my showcase podium read “BATHROOM” so I joked “I'm so glad my podium says 'Bathroom.' That's going to be my new Facebook profile pic.” which got another laugh. Howie laughed as well and quickly noted that Rick's podium said “TRIP” so he quipped “Trip to Bathroom” which got another laugh.
Kevin came back over and congratulated us both for everything up to this point and instructed us what to do – the winner was to run over to their showcase to be joined by their group and the loser was to head off stage to the left of the turntable. The taping resumed after Howie got instructions in his IFB which price to reveal first. Rick and I both wished each other luck and Howie revealed the actual retail price of Rick's showcase - $21,331; off by only $331. I congratulated Rick as that was a very good bid. My heart stopped as Howie paused for dramatic effect as he recapped my bid of $24,321. Actual retail price... $21,461. I had gone over and Rick was on his way to Cambodia. I felt glad for him that he was able to redeem himself after his disastrous playing of Hole in One or Two. I headed off-stage where another producer shook my hand and congratulated me on being a great contestant. She said everyone loved the sparkling jacket and they were so happy we had chosen to wear them. She also said she's been in television for a long time and the line about the bathroom was definitely ending up in the show even though we were technically at a stop down. They had a fake priest come on stage to “marry” Rick and his fiancée to send the television audience home happy.
After the cameras stopped rolling, all the contestants were de-mic'd as the audience was escorted out. The majority of them offered their congratulations to us on the way out, which was very nice of them. We were then escorted over to the prize department's office where we each had to sign the necessary paperwork to accept our prizes. After a bit more chatting with Zain and Rick, we all bid our farewells. We were all permitted to take our smaller sized prizes with us rather than have to wait months for them so I had to schlep a huge box of baby accessories and a hiking backpack back to the Air BnB and subsequently the train to get it all home (good thing my friends were there to help!)
After being reunited with Shane, Adam and Cliff, I saw Kevin wrangling the audience together for the next taping that day but he came over to me and gave me a hug and thanked me for being on the show. I thanked him as well for everything he had done to make a dream come true. I found out shortly thereafter that he had gone to Shane, Cliff and Adam while I was signing the paperwork to thank them for coming to the show as well and that he hoped they weren't too disappointed they weren't called to come on down (they weren't!) but that they were going to be all over the show anyway (and how they have been cutting the shows together, Shane has been in EVERY episode so far!). Apparently, they had wanted me to play from Jump Street which I thought was pretty humbling and something I hadn't been able to experience when I went to the daytime version in season 39. I sent Kevin an e-mail afterwards thanking him once again for such an incredible opportunity.
And so ends my journey to The Price is Right Tonight.
