One of the highlights of my snow/sick days as a child was staying home and watching National Treasure Bob Barker and Johnny Olson invite screaming contestants to 'Come on down!' on The Price is Right.

The Price is Right has been an American television institution for almost 50 years, it premiered in 1972 and around 14 years ago, the producers brought their beloved game show out on the road. The Price is Right Live! has made a couple of stops over the years to the Connecticut Casinos, but I've just learned that LiveNation is bringing The Price is Right Live! to the Oakdale Theater in Wallingford in early 2022.
