"Come on Down" Dad!
Happy Father's Day to my Dad and all the other dads out there. I love you Dad.
I also wanted to recognize a father like figure I grew up watching on TV, Bob Barker. This past Friday marked Bob's last broadcast of the "The Price Is Right". Bob was the face of the TPIR for over 35 years.
"Come On Down" is one of the best known phrases as the announcer calls for the contestant to come on down and see if the Price Is Right. Bob then takes them through different price guessing games. Family fun for everyone.
I don't know who will succeed Bob. Rosie O'Donnell is a rumored replacement (hopefully not) or possibly former NY Giants running back Tiki Barber as I suggested when he retired a few months ago or even someone else.
Regardless of who succeeds in trying to fill Bob's large shoes, best wishes to Bob for a happy and healthy retirement.
