That link is not to the Price is Right TV show. The "Price is Right" brand has a traveling live theater production as well called Price is Right Live. Tickets to that cost money. Tickets for the real TV show in Los Angeles are free. Thanks for playing.

This seems like an excessive level of condescension for a lack of familiarity with the Price is Right expanded universe.

  What, "thanks for playing"? It's a sparkling bright opportunity for that joke, not a put-down.

  You "corrected" someone out of ignorance who knew your correction was wrong. I think you need to swallow your pride rather than complain about their being condescending; feeling humiliated is your brains way of learning to be more careful in the future. I expect I made a mistake here too, that would be normal in this sort of conversation.

    > feeling humiliated is your brains way of learning to be more careful in the future. Yeah, I'm really humiliated here. How could I possibly confuse The Price is Right and The Price is Right Live? Gonna be tough to live that one down.

  Never thought I’d read the words “Price is Right” and “expanded universe” in the one sentence on HN...

    Let me add to the amazement by pointing out that there even seems to be "Price is Right fanfiction" out there [0]. Tho it's hosted on angelfire and the texts are saved as word documents, which is either really odd or really smart, depending on the intentions of the creator.
