And what a price for that '77 Chevy Blazer: Almost 7800 bucks ($7,784, to be exact). In 41 days from right now (which would be the 40th anniversary of this episode), that Blazer would cost $31,290.52 after inflation. Can you believe that?
I'm no golfer , but i'm not sure why you would line up to the right of the hole . Unless the green was leaning slightly left .Otherwise a straight line would be better.
I can't believe Bob asked for Elijah's weight on national television. Then kept making comments after that. You'd never see that today. That would be a lawsuit these days. I hope he got a stern lecture from the producers. It's also strange not seeing the 2 green sections on the big wheel. I wonder what year that started.
One of the only times, if not the only time that I'm aware of that Dian did not model the car in the Hole In One game. I think at that point the game hadn't been played that often and they were still working out the kinks. Did you notice how far over to the left the ball it was instead of the center where everybody eventually would put it.
I like how Bob read the prices of the prizes immediately of the showcases there at the end. Now days, they take a commercial break and come back to it, but then, they did it immediately after the player told their bid. 7 grand for that Chevrolet Blazer? What makes car companies think vehicles are worth 12+ grand now days for regular 'ol joe cars & trucks? LOL ....what gives?! Sure, inflation, but really?, they drive just like they did back then, go down the road, stop, turn signals, horn, same 'ol same 'ol. It's not like we have flying cars yet like the BTTF Delorean. ha ha ....or hover vehicles like on the cartoon, The Jetsons....I wish!
Raarrow Agreed, I would only value commercials from an original over the air CBS broadcast (from any season). Do I really want to see bland cable ads from the late 90s?
+Ignacio Ponce I have only been able to find about 3 or 4 hour-long eps of TPIR from the '70s with the original commercials intact on YT. They are extremely rare.
I really miss those days
"you can buy a plantation "..to the black guy..wow..lol
Ha! I'm watching vintage Price online, and a new Price just came on television, right behind me. Double the fun ;)
Janice and Holly as Showcase Biker Chicks! God I miss the old days of t.v!
$7700 for that Blazer? nice for 1977.
No second chance for Hole-In-One back then.
Michael Niemiera Not until the nighttime 1 hour specials in 1986.
29:20 gee. Johnny said "an area rug" instead of "a 'rea' rug," which he has said for the last FIVE years!! FINALLY!!

Elijah rules!

Gotta love how bob explained to put it in the hole. 😁
@28:21, "Give her a stick of gum!" lol
43:02 Elijah won $4444 in prizes. Wait a minute, he has four "fours" in his total. That was interesting.
For Dice Game, it is actually a good thing they changed it to where the price of the car could only be in the dice

Linda looks strikingly similar to my Linda from high school in 1977

Nowadays, we simply call it the Chevy Blazer.

600 for that chair in 1977????
American was so skinny!!!! 💃🕺
The days before the unofficial "ends with 9" rule in Clock Game.
Nice. It woud be better with the commercials, though.
Ignacio Ponce I've rarely left commercials in when recording from GSN. Snippets might make it in because I hit pause too late or record too early.
Raarrow Agreed, I would only value commercials from an original over the air CBS broadcast (from any season). Do I really want to see bland cable ads from the late 90s?
+Raarrow yea and besides I'd prefer the original CBS network commercials that originally aired over those dumb GSN infomercials
+Ignacio Ponce I have only been able to find about 3 or 4 hour-long eps of TPIR from the '70s with the original commercials intact on YT. They are extremely rare.
I agree
Use to always watch back in the day
28:09 - OUCH! Went against the odds and that six done creep up in there. Bummer.
Elijah went on to lose another 300 pounds and become personal manager to Richard Simmons.
That 2 in $629 is crooked.. darn 1977 mechanical displays.. well before Chyron was invented..
