THE Price Is Right Live has announced a 60-venue tour that includes stops in New York and Pennslyvania.
And while fans are excited for their chance to participate in The Price is Right , some Southerners are disappointed that the game show is skipping over their state entirely.

Last month, The Price Is Right Live shared the exciting news in an Instagram video post captioned, “The Price is Right Live is coming to a town near you!”
“Over 60 venues will play host to our interactive stage show this Fall and the tour starts on August 30th!”
In the video , Price Is Right Live host Todd Newton asked fans, “Are you ready to come on down?”
“America’s favorite game show is coming to your hometown with all the prizes and all the games that you’ve loved on television for over 50 years,” he continued.
Todd enthusiastically revealed, “Plinko, The Big Wheel, Cliffhangers… they will all be there and you could win a brand-new car.”
Ticket prices varied based on location and seating but the September 29 show in Westbury, New York , offered ticket opinions between around $50 to $250.
In the comment section, one fan wrote, “I’m excited for Englewood NJ.”
But there’s one state where fans will miss out entirely.
“I am SO BUMMED there’s 0 Texas dates,” complained a fan.
“Love me some Todd Newton!!! One day I’m gunna get picked for the live show?!
Drew joined a contestant named Ryan for The Money Game.
The Money Game involves a board of nine two-digit numbers, two of which are the first and last two digits of a car’s price.
The Price is Right Hosts
The Price is Right first came on TV in 1972. Fans fell in love with the game show so much that it has been on for over 50 years. Throughout that time, the show has had a few different hosts. Find out who they are below.
Bob Barker – 1972 to June 2007 (also became executive producer in 1988)
Drew Carey – October 2007 to present
Dennis James – filled in for Bob in 1974 when he missed four episodes, also hosted the nighttime version
Craig Ferguson – 2014 April Fools Day Special
The middle digit is revealed at the outset, and the contestant chooses one figure at a time.
Ryan chose a “25,” the correct first digits of the navy sedan’s cost
Next, Ryan chose “52,” prompting Drew to walk to the board to find the corresponding panel.
“Car 52, where are you?” Drew asked, referencing the opening theme song from Scooby Doo.
The joke was not met with any laughter, causing the show’s host to smile nervously.
“No?” he asked the crowd, quietly chuckling with a spaced-out “ha ha” as he found the panel.
“52” was a dollar sign, so it was placed in the player’s cash column.
Ryan still had to pick the panel with the two digits, and Drew awkwardly said, “Let’s try not to stretch it out. I’d like to get it over with.”
Ryan correctly chose “83” as the last two digits of the car’s value, winning the car.
He rushed over to the side of the stage to claim his new whip.
Fans drove the comments section of the Instagram clip, where a few dunked on Drew, made worse by the fact he’s a comedian.
“Drew really aging himself with the ‘car 52 where are you’ comment that nobody laughed at,” one fan wrote, which was the top-liked comment.
“Yeah, that was rough lol,” replied another.
Others enjoyed the segment: “This and the die game is my favorite game to win a car,” another comment read.
COSTLY SCHEDULE CHANGE?
Season 53 of the iconic game show premieres in late September and some fans were outraged over the show’s schedule change for its new season.
The Price is Right at Night will return on September 23rd, airing on Monday nights on CBS from 8 to 9 p.m. EST.
However, the night episodes used to air on Wednesdays.
With the switch from Wednesdays to Mondays, some fans are worried that Monday Night Football will affect future episodes.
Football often delays programs when the games go into overtime.
“I don’t know why CBS is moving the night shows to Monday night? They are now competing head-to-head with NFL Monday Night Football,” one fan said on Reddit.
“That’s definitely unfair,” another wrote.
