For the second time in a month, The Price is Right offered another trip to Maine, but showed once again that they really aren't all that familiar with our state.
I ve been watching The Price is Right for as long as I can remember and in the almost 50 years of the show s run, I ve never seen any trips to Maine offered until the show that aired on January 19. As part of a Showcase, which included a pair of VR headsets and pair of Vespa scooters, they offered a pair of trips to Portland, Oregon and Portland, Maine. Pretty cool right? Except the trip technically wasn t to Portland, Maine. Here s the description of the trip to Portland as read by
The Price is Right announcer George Gray:
You and a guest will fly round trip business class from Los Angeles to Portland, Maine for a six night stay in a deluxe ocean view room at the Inn at Ocean s Edge. Relish the finer things at this quintessential ocean front hotel perched on the shores of the Penobscot Bay.
