Big Dog In Audience At the Price is Right
Posted 6-28-05 -
Gary "Big Dog" Breneman had the experience of a lifetime when he had the opportunity to sit in the studio audience at a taping of the Price is Right last week in Hollywood, CA. Big Dog did not make it up on stage but said he was close to someone who was told to "come on down." The show will appear on CBS on September 23rd at 10 AM.

Big Dog has religiously watched the Price Is Right (and has had to tape many shows during away games) for as long as anyone can remember. So, in Big Dog's 30th year as Men's Basketball and Baseball manager he was presented with a check for a trip to Hollywood at the 40th Annual Madison College Athletic Banquet. Almost $3000 was raised for Big Dog's trip through generous donations from over 125 former and current student-athletes and coaches.

Thanks to all who helped support Big Dog on his dream trip.
