The clip of Bob Barker wearing the grass skirt that contestant gave him was one of the most popular clips in The Price Is Right history.

I remember this when I was a teenager. I think I watched this while on spring break.

[@danbaranowski]

[@funshine97]

This aired after my 1st birthday.

[@ytv2965]

This Aired on the same day That Jerry Springer did a episode entitled "I Have Another Lover!" I also greatly remember the premiere Serial Joe's video Skidrow that evening shown on ALL networks on MuchMusic.

[@digiblader1]

$91 for that Speed 2 video?????? What the hell is with these inflated prices in California??

[@rudyiraheta80]

remember the $80 alice in wonderland vhs on the price is right

[@majoinerful]

It's only getting worse in California!

[@rudyiraheta80]

make me a speed 3

[@CH-gr7tn]

Once my mother had to return the VHS tape of American Pie to the video store but she returned it to the wrong store. At the end, she had to pay $75 to to pay the fee for it.

[@jwgreek8606]

Gregory Pearsoll you took the words right out if my mouth! That’s highway robbery!

[@ashleylewis5660]

I bet Bob went to Hawaii after he got his hula skirt.😂

[@tomasjaramillo4430]

CAR

[@jwgreek8606]

Bush #43 was governor of Texas at the time. And it sounds like Bill Wendell voicing the Channel 10 spot

[@John--]

There's commercials for his campaign occasionally in these videos. I've seen them a few times. They were for some literacy movement at the time lol

[@SpikeAngelSolidsnake]

bienvenue a price is right

[@jwgreek8606]

Second time in a row the Check Game/Make Your Music was played. During Line em up.

[@chrisfinch8637]

10:20 Aloha, Bob Barker! And also Aloha to General Hospital's 35th Anniversary on ABC at the time.

[@jessyleppert2]

April Fools 1998

[@bobbyadkins6983]

Never ever bid only one dollar unless you are the last to bid.

[@DeAngeloStevens]

Cody Anderson, Takato Matsuki, Epsa Roba, Sakura Kinomoto Birthdays on April Fool's Day, but not Luan Loud around in 1998.

[@JarvisBrodie]

Was this the very playing of Line 'em Up?

[@bobbyadkins6983]

Imagine getting up on stage and the prize they offer is a clock and the next person is offered a truck.

[@jamie514]

91$ for a VHS???? gimme a break lol!!!

[@brianhobbins3612]

These movies that are now dvds or blu rays are less than $25 now

[@rudyiraheta80]

disney alice in wonderland vhs was $80

[@Musicradio77Network]

It was according to the right price in "Bonus Game", $91 for a Disney VHS of "Speed 2", because it was under 20th Century Fox which is now part of Disney.

[@rudyiraheta80]

@@Musicradio77Network know a $66 vhs

[@kadel300]

That Speed 2 price MUST be a mistake. That'd be a wrong price for a MASTERPIECE of a movie.

[@Musicradio77Network]

It was considered as an April Fool's joke during the show's airing. $91 was the price for a Disney VHS of "Speed 2" which was under 20th Century Fox. Back then, "Speed 2" cost about $20 to $25 depending on the price back in 1998.

[@jwgreek8606]

And the funny thing is Disney would own speed

[@williamconner254]

Does anybody know how to get a copy of The Price is Right episode which aired on 31 March 1998 (0712K)? I have a Marine friend who was on the show and he was KIA in 2002. I would like to try and get the footage for his family. Thank you.

[@Rewindium]

[@tinahobbs3273]

[@gregorygousy2897]

Hahaha, a Hawaiian gown, that is a great gift.

[@iwanaGoFast2010]

Channel 10 news got me scared to go outside

[@1906tpir]

What kind of damm video was that in Prize #1 in Bonus Game?! A video of Speed was $91?

[@NS-my5ko]

1/6-er and a tripcase? This feels like a modern-day episode!

[@chrispeplinski7306]

I don't remember this

[@Ian16545]

When calling the first 4, it sounded like Rod was a bit out of it.

[@novaorbitdragon]

When commercials were wholesome and true. Nothing about trans and sexual stuff.
