Jim Nantz, Come On Down!

Thursday, March 26, 2009

Not only was there news recently that one James William Nantz, III could run for office in the near future, but today we've learned that more importantly (kidding) Nantz will be appearing on the Price Is Right! Not only that, but one of the showcase prizes will be a trip to the Final Four!!! From Fang's Bites via CBS PR....

CBS Sportscaster Jim Nantz, the 2008 National Sportscaster of the Year, will make a special appearance on CBS's Emmy Award-winning THE PRICE IS RIGHT, with host Drew Carey, Thursday, April 2 (11:00 AM-12:00 Noon, ET; 10:00-11:00 AM, PT), on the CBS Television Network. Nantz, who pre-taped his appearance earlier this month, will introduce a special Showcase trip to the NCAA Final Four in Detroit.
Well that was the shortest press release/blockquote in the history of the Internet. It still should be fun. I would also encourage Nantz to wear some kind of "I Love You Drew!" homemade t-shirt of some sort. Preferably bedazzled.

This is all just a big excuse for Nantz to play Plinko and talk into that weird long microphone.

It's not the first time that CBS Sports staffers have worked on The Price is Right mind you.

According to nothing more than a fan site for the show, Golden Road.net, cameramen for the transition from standard to hi-def working last season's "Million Dollar Spectaculars" were from the Sports production division.
