The Perfect Bid

FAM! Travel back with us to one of our funniest episodes! Get ready to meet Ted Slauson, a math teacher who becomes OBSESSED with the gameshow The Price is Right. He spends weeks and months MEMORIZING THE COST OF THOUSANDS OF ITEMS in order to beat the game--a tactic which is apparently perfectly legal. He goes to the show over and over hoping to make it on and helps so many gameshow hopefuls beat the game along the way. We're taking a walk on the lighter side this week, and you're gonna love it!
