“I don’t think the stage has
changed for 30 years,” he said,
adding that the orange-painted set
still looks like it is from the 1970s.
Do said meeting Bob Barker, the
host and executive producer who
has won 11 Daytime Emmy
awards, was a scary experience.
Do said Barker’s stage makeup was
caked on his face, and during com
mercial breaks, Barker went back
stage for touch-ups three times.
Do also said models Janice Pen
nington, Kathleen Bradley and
Nikki Ziering, who are now in
their late 40s, were wearing cheap
dresses and too much makeup.
“It looked like wax coming to
life,” Do said.
Do said that in person, announc
er Rod Roddy is short, stocky and
wears bright, funky suit coats.
Roddy is the one who invites the
contestants to “come on down.”
After bidding on some prizes
and missing twice, Do used the
technique of bidding $1 over the
highest price for a Capresso Coffee
and Espresso Maker. The audience
booed him, but Do’s guess was the
closest to the actual retail price
without going over, and from there
the prizes rolled in.
Do played a true/false game and
won an iron, a digital scale, a wa
ter purifier and a month’s supply
of eggs, although he said he does
Minh Do will be on the
Price is Right on Thurs
day.
These are the prizes Do won and
their retail values:
Capresso Coffee and Espresso Maker
— $899
Eggland’s Best Eggs — $40
Health-O-Meter Digital scale — $70
Proctor Si lex I ron — $20
Pur PlusWater Purifier—$50
2000 Mercury Sable — $22,305
International cultured pearl neck
lace—$2,640
A coach trip for two-on Malaysia Air
lines— $2,000
Six nights at the Marriott Hotel in
Malaysia — $655.05
2001 Dodge Stratus $50 — $23,020
n’t really like eggs.
Later in the show, Do spun the
wheel last, because he had won
the most prizes, and was one of
two contestants in the Showcase
Showdown.
Do said he recommends that
contestants bid the highest amount
possible on prizes.
“The prizes look cheap, but they
are really expensive,” he said.
Do celebrated his birthday after
the show with his sisters at The
Cheesecake Factory in Redondo,
CA.
Do plans to use his winnings to
take his older sister Kim, a senior
journalism major, on a trip for six
nights to Malaysia this summer.
Do also said he will sell the two
American-made cars he won, a
2000 Mercury Sable and a 2001
Dodge Stratus, and possibly invest
in a convertible Volkswagen Bug.
Do said he would have to pay the
taxes and license fees on the cars,
along with income tax on the rest
of the prizes.
“All they give away is American
cars,” Do said. He presently owns
a Honda Accord, which he is also
planning to sell.
While other game shows like
“Who Wants to be a Millionaire?”
reap the benefits of sudden popu
larity, “The Price is Right” is the
longest-running game show in tel
evision history. Now in its 29th
season, it remains America’s high
est-rated daytime game show —
especially among college students.
“It’s a classic television show,
because Bob Barker is just your
typical game show host,” said
Kristin Snyder, a fan of the show
and a sophomore sports marketing
major. “New game show hosts are
always trying to imitate Bob Bark
er.” Snyder said she enjoys the
show because the contestants get
so excited and because it differs
from Wheel of Fortune and Jeop
ardy because of the variety of clas
sic games like Plinko and Hole in
One.
