This Just In: Price Is Right Mountain Guy Still Creepy

I covered this a long time ago, but the mountain climber guy on the “Price is Right” used to scare me when I was a little kid, and it still kinda creeps me out today. It was always a combination of how weird the dude looked and the other-worldly yodeling that accompanied his ascent up the mountain.

I would have nightmares where I’d start hearing the yodeling and then the guy would be next to me in my room. It creeps me out even writing about it now.

But over the years I’ve managed to reduce my fear by mainly getting a job that forces me to work during “The Price is Right” – and you thought I worked for the money – and steeling myself against the bone-chilling grip of the mountain guy’s siren song on those rare occasions where I happen to catch the show and they play the game.

Though these tactics have worked for years, now they are apparently not enough. The creepy mountain climber guy has raised the stakes. Today I log into my Facebook account – yeah, I’m on there. so what? friend me, bitches – and what do I find my boy Jamie Babb has posted to his wall?

This…

That’s messed up, right? Now I have to work to stay away from “The Price is Right” during the day and to pay for years of therapy to get over this. Thanks, Babb.
