It would be nice if you actually listed your source

 

[Nate Wesley]

Did anyone in the Mobile-Pensacola area air The Price Is Right at that time? I don't think I saw it listed at all.

 

[Mario500]

I was surprised not to see "The Price is Right" in the Mobile Press-Register's TV listings from this date in history. Pardon me for not mentioning the name of the newspaper earlier, as I have done so in previous posts with TV listings from the Mobile area.

WKRG didn't clear the Price Is Right during the brief period when CBS aired the show from 9:30 to 10:30 CST. By the next Summer it was back on WKRG.
