Robert William "Bob" Barker (born December 12, 1923) is a seventeen-time Emmy Award-winning American television game show host. He is best known for hosting CBS's The Price Is Right since September 4, 1972, making it the longest-running daytime game show in television history. On October 31, 2006 he announced that he would retire from hosting The Price Is Right in June 2007 after holding the job for nearly 35 years and having been in television for 50 years. His last episode of The Price Is Right is set to air on June 15, 2007.
The man took all comers on his show, had a stable of personal whores, a closet of snappy suits, his announcer dressed up as Robin to his Batman, and he was obviously better than anyone at nearly every game on the show.
Fare thee well my hero
