Bob Barker retires from "The Price Is Right"

Just heard at the top of the KCBS-TV news, longtime (loooonnnnng time) "The Price Is Right" host Bob Barker is retiring after who can remember how many decades giving away cars, cash and who knows what else from
CBS' Television City in Hollywood.

The longtime animal activist told KCBS that he hopes the show will go on without him, that he told no one of his plan to retire before announcing it today, and that any future host of "Price Is Right" would do well to learn the various games contestants play to earn money on the popular program. "There are more than 80 games, and you've got to know them backwards and forwards," he said.
