Sadly, I shall never be able to go on his show. He retires before I’m eligible to get tickets.
Oh, how my heart laments my cursed age.
Bob Barker shall never die
Bob Barker died in 1985. He had a heart attack at news that his friend and the shows announcer Johnny Olson, died in a catamaran accident. Mark Goodson Productions, not wanting the public to know that the prizes they were giving away were shoddy merchandise (i.e. the catamaran), had a gun planted in Johnny’s apartment with his prints on the weapon making it look like a suicide. In ‘86 Rod Roddy took over as announcer and they have been using a robotic puppet to represent Mr. Barker.
