50 States of Game Show Hosts.
« on: June 01, 2013, 01:37:59 PM »

Since I\'m not into international game shows and their hosts, how about a thread about domestic game show hosts.  From my home state of Michigan, Bob Eubanks.

In terms of representing the state in which I reside, I\'d vote for Ross Shafer before Barker.

Virginia: Johnny Gilbert


I know that a few hosts attended school here, but Johnny is the only one I can think of born here...at least off the top of my head.

Less than 3 miles from both West Virginia and Ohio, but calling the Bluegrass State his home turf, Chuck Woolery, from Ashland, KY.


 


 


Edit:  tyshaun beat me by mere seconds, so I will add Ralph Edwards, (born 100 years ago, come June 13th) from Merino, CO.

Ben Bailey (one of the hosts I mentioned who attended school in VA) was born in Bowling Green, KY, so that\'s 4...

Peter Marshall gets West Virginia.


And Illinois also claims Gene Rayburn.

Two I can think of from my home state of New York (Plattsburgh native, that's me): Dick Clark (Mount Vernon) and Bud Collyer (New York City). And one more: Peter Tomarken (Olean)

New Jersey also spawned George DeWitt (Atlantic City), Geoff Edwards (Westfield), and if we're gonna count hostesses, Elaine Stewart (Montclair).

Cordially,
Tammy
