The Fishing Game?

But based on IGT's site, it looks like the next real pricing will be Money Game.

And I guess if it's not obvious already, it looks like they will continue to use Rod's likeness (fishing hat & jacket on this game) in future releases.

But they don't have a fishing game on the Price Is Right. And Rod's dead!

As long as it's got the "TPIR" logo and the theme plays (and Fremantle gets its cut), no one's complaining. It seems to me that Rod's still there for continuity reasons--and note that his name's in quotes.

Rich Fields, you're going to have to start getting some of Rod's jackets in your size (and does the fishing jacket on the machine have sequins?).

Well, old people love The Price is Right...and Fishing...Makes sense...

I won't be surprised if we'll see "The Price is Right Bingo Game" or something.

Rod would have loved this... becoming an icon, a piece of Americana. Nothing would have pleased him more. He always wanted to play Vegas. Well buddy, you're appearing up and down the strip!
