New York, Minneapolis, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh Join the Search
THE PRICE IS RIGHT added cities to its nationwide contestant search, which now includes New York, Minneapolis, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. The search, which kicked off June 19, has already visited Boston, Cleveland, Detroit and San Francisco.
Two participants will be selected from each location to fly to Los Angeles and attend a taping of the legendary game show starting in fall 2010. A bidder’s spot on Contestants’ Row will be guaranteed to one of the two participants, who will learn if they are selected to “come on down” when they hear their name called during the show’s taping.
