The iconic Bob Barker died on August 26, 2024. Despite the fact the show remains known for his years of hosting it, the game show itself didn’t offer any message on the one-year anniversary of his death. However, while the show snubbed him yesterday, fans were online to offer their memories after the game show ignored the moment.
“Remembering Bob Barker one year later. Some of my favorite Bob Barker memories were contestants playing Plinko, Cliffhangers, and Three Strikes.”
“Rest In Peace Bob Barker! We lost you one year ago today,”
“Can’t believe it’s been a year since we lost the GOAT. R.I.P. Bob!”
Instead of celebrating or acknowledging Bob Barker on the anniversary of his death, The Price is Right instead showed a video of a man celebrating with Drew Carey after winning a car.
The Price Is Right Host’s Death Was One Year Ago
Bob Barker died on August 26, 2023, in his Los Angeles home. He was four months short of his 100th birthday when he died. His death was determined to be by natural causes.
