Almost made it to $1.00
- As close as he could without going over
  
  He did not over bid.
  Don’t forget to have your pet spayed or neutered.
  
  Damn it, came here thinking I was clever and you both beat me to it.
Thanks for the entertainment on the sick days home from school Bob.

- Immediately the first thing I thought of, thx for posting it.
Someone on TikTok said, "He got as close as he could without going over."
I thought that he had passed, a while ago. 99 years is a good run.
Spay and neuter, folks!
- Spaying and neutering folks would solve a lot of problems.
- 99; I'd call that closest without going over.
  
  Yes we all seen the other comments.
Ooof, this hit me right in the childhood.
This is one of those chapter-turning public figure deaths for me. The last one was Betty White, and before that was Robin Williams — almost mythical figures whose names and faces I'd known since before I can remember, who it almost felt like would just always be around.
RIP, Bob. You've earned it.
I feel this is one of those things that is the end of an era. The Price is Right with Bob Barker always reminds me of afternoons at my grandparents' house, and I'm sure it does for a lot of people in my age bracket. He also seemed to be a genuinely nice person. It was always good to hear her was still alive and doing things, and it helped keep that little slice of childhood alive.
The price is wrong, Bitch!
I shall spay and neuter my pets in honor of Bob Barker.
- Don't stop at your own. Find other people's pets to spay and neuter in Bob's honor.
Damn... I was rooting for him to get the whole $1.00
What an amazing long life. We should all be so lucky. RIP
At least we still have Drew Carey, right?
...
(cries bitter tears)
- I wish he would just be himself, though. He takes the gig so seriously. It's uncomfortable to watch. I don't want Bob Barker 2.0 Drew; give me Whose Line and Drew Carey Show Drew.
I can't be the only one who thought he'd already passed?
- I thought he died a couple years after leaving the show. I'm happy that he lived long enough to actually enjoy his retirement.
I guess that’s one way to avoid all those allegations.
