(cue 1979 Come On Down music)
Rich: Tonight, from CBS Television City in Hollywood, it's a special holiday version of America's number one daytime game show! The fabulous Price Is Right!
Frank Sartori, come on down!
Matt Riggenberg, come on down!
Bill Skinner, come on down!
Nels Snesrud, come on down!
You are the first four contestants on this special episode of The Price Is Right! (cue 1972 main theme) And now, here's the star of The Price Is Right, Mark Liotta. (I enter from the back of the studio dressed in a Santa Claus outfit, high fiving audience members as I make my way to the stage. Rachel hands me the microphone and I bow)
Me: Welcome to The Price Is Right! (audience cheers) Thank you very much, audience! (Theme fades out) Now you're probably wondering why I'm dressed like this. Well one of our producers was in my dressing room before the show and suggested I do the show in this costume. It makes perfect sense since this is a Christmas themed show, after all. You kids watching at home, Santa Claus Liotta's keeping an eye on you so you better be good. Now then, we have some important matters to tend to here. And that would include having a look at the first item up for bids tonight!
(Deck The Halls cue)
Rich: It's a lovely Christmas tree. This fine Christmas tree adds lovely decor to the household during the holidays and has room for plenty of ornaments. (Deck The Halls fades out)
Me: And we will present that tree to the one of you who bids nearest to the actual retail price without going over. Frank, you get the first bid of the evening!
Bidding order: Frank, Matt, Bill, Nels

$701. (ding) Actual retail price......(clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang) Oh, that is a wonderful sound I hear. One of you has bid exactly right! And since this is a holiday special, the contestant who has bid exactly right will not get a $500 bonus, but a $1000 bonus. And the contestant who bid exactly right gave me a bid of $550, Frankie get on up here! (Frankie makes his way onto the stage as the camera fades to a shot of the Golden Road) Frankie, you get to start off the night by taking a walk down the golden road. Before we show you the prizes, I need to give you your money for a perfect bid. (I hand Frankie ten $100 bills) There you are, sir. Now we start our walk down the golden road with this little item right here.
Rich: It's delicious banquet pot pies. Good to serve for large parties.
Me: Now those banquet pot pies can help you to win this prize.
Rich: It's a Playstation 4 gaming package. From Sony, this Playstation 4 game console includes two wireless controllers and a selection of six fun games to play on the system.
Me: Now if you win the PS4 package, we continue down the golden road where you can win this prize.
Rich: It's a fun pinball machine! Enjoy the fun of classic pinball as well as Sony's popular mascot Crash Bandicoot. You'll have hours and hours of enjoyment and entertainment.
Me: Now if you win that prize, we go all the way to the end of the golden road. Those of you who watch our daytime program know that we always have something wonderful at the end of the golden road. And we happen to have something so wonderful that it'll leave you and our audience speechless. Tell him about it, Rich!
Rich: A new motorhome! The 2018 Winnebago Vista 31BE includes automatic transmission, two DVD players and Triton V-10 engine. The Winnebago Vista!
Me: Now that is something wonderful indeed and it's worth over $156,000! I would love to give that away, but we have to take it one at a time. Now the pot pies are 72 cents. We'll take that price tag over to the Playstation 4 gaming package. In the price of that video game package, there are three numbers and you will be allowed to see two of them.
_ 4 5
Frankie, does the 7 or the 2 belong in the price of the PS4?

He is going with the 2. (audience boos) The audience doesn't seem to agree with that choice, but you never know around here. Let's see that first number. (I lift up the flap. Price is shown at $745. Buzzer, losing horns) Now I see why the audience disapproved. Frankie, you'll get a chance to redeem yourself at the wheel later on. (1972 theme) We'll try again after this. (Fade to commercial)

I knew it had to be 7! Even the console alone would have to crack $299, at least.

(Back to the studio)
Me: Rich, who's going to be the next lucky person to join us for our little Christmas extravaganza?
Rich: It's going to be Kevin Kolsen! (1979 COD cue) Come on down, you're the next contestant on The Price Is Right!
Me: And there's Kevin making his way down the isle in a reindeer Christmas sweater. Very appropriate attire for a show like this. Now let's find out what you folks are going to bid on.
Rich: It's the new iPhone X. From Apple, this new iPhone smartphone comes with 64 gigabytes of free space and includes all of your favorite apps, including YouTube, Facebook and more.
Me: Kevin, what do you bid on that phone?
Bidding order: Kevin, Matt, Bill, Nels
