Guest Andrea Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Is calling it quits. After 35 years on the Price Is Right, Bob is retiring. He is 82 years old. Said he wanted to do it "while he was still young". I grew up watching this show. Don't think it will ever be the same without him. They'll just have to end the show because anybody else trying to host it will be a FLOP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Re: Bob Barker He needed to go years ago IMHO. I think he got kind of cranky in his old age. Got to give him props for the longevity though. Hard to believe that show's been on that long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Re: Bob Barker I heard that on the news last night. I bet the show nose dives now. That typically happens once it loses its history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrea Posted November 1, 2006 Report Share Posted November 1, 2006 Re: Bob Barker Yeah, but I guess I've only associated him with this gameshow. When I was little I didn't care about people's political views. It's the passing of an icon, that's all. If he is anti-hunter I still could care less. He lives in California, whaddadya expect? LOL...........he still wears leather shoes. Eats meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Whoa there buddy, why did that set you off? I thought this was a thread about Bob Barker and I just stated a fact about him. He's been openly anti-hunting for many years. It's not like it's idle speculation on my part or something he's trying to hide. I'm merely giving those who might not be familiar with Mr. Barker an opportunity to learn a bit more about him. If you like him, repsect him, support him, love him, or despise him, that's your choice. But make that choice from an informed position. That's all I'm trying to accomplish.
