I was really hoping he would make it to 100, so that TPIR could hold another epic birthday celebration for him in person - the only difference from his 90th was that he would be wheelchair bound (according to my prediction). Oh well, I guess no one lives forever, no matter how immortal they might seem to be - RIP Bob Barker (1923-2023). Thanks for making my childhood the best one ever!
