Title: The Price is Right LIVE! - LIVE!
Post by: Thunder on March 21, 2015, 10:01:33 PM
I've got a friend in the audience at a TPIR LIVE show happening tonight in Alberta. I thought you people would like to see what he's seeing now. If he adds any more photos, I'll add them to this thread.

I wonder if they outdrew the Oilers/Flyers game nearby.

Edmonton and Philadelphia?  The winnings on the Plinko board might be larger than the attendance.

Don't know if sarcasm, but 16,839 per ESPN. Sellout. (http://scores.espn.go.com/nhl/boxscore?gameId=400564454)

Sweet pics by the way.

Probably sarcasm, Universally-hated-outside-of-their-own-market Eastern Conference opponent in Western Conference city + national game on HNiC usually = sellout.

I suspect Travis is lamenting the poor performance of his Eulers. Which, believe me, I get. :)

Even with the win last night, Edmonton has lost nearly twice as many games as they've won. You can't even make the joke that they're just happy to be there. Any night they score more than 2.718 goals is cause for celebration, as opposed to the nights where they're beaten so badly that seat holders throw their kit onto the ice out of frustrated rage.

The gag is that Edmonton is out in the middle of nowhere (odd for a provincial capital at that), and your choices are Big Ass-Mall, Hockey, and Knockoff Version of Game Show. I would be totally unsurprise if hockey barely snuck onto the medal podium in that battle.

Believe me, I'm down for the cause on a soccer night, so it's a case of any port in a storm.

Don't underestimate the power of Canadian hockey fans.  The Leafs are 27-40-6, yet there's still something like a ten-year waiting list for season tickets.

ObGameShow: Price Live is pure, unadulterated fun.  Nobody wants anyone else to lose.

"Power" is not the attribute I would apply to that statistic. :)
