A recent episode of The Price is Right took a poignant turn when longtime team member Scott Robinson said goodbye. Normally, the set is full of excitement and energy. Drew Carey, the host, broke down in tears when he left.
Robinson was crucial to Carey’s early days because he taught him all 70+ of the show’s games and served as the contestant during rehearsals. Numerous hours spent working together strengthened their close relationship. Carey found saying goodbye to be emotionally taxing.
In the beginning, Scott competed in every game I played. I learned everything I know about The Price is Right from him. Before giving Robinson a hug, Carey choked up and said, “I love this guy so much.”
Fans were moved by the heartfelt farewell. One YouTube commenter said, “Congrats to Drew for being a real man and displaying genuine emotion.” “It’s nice to see people not afraid to show they give a crap about someone else,” another person said.
