Lansdale Man Wins On The Price Is Right
Ben Hartranft lived out a dream many of us have. To hear the announcement “Come On Dowwwwn”. That’s right, Hartranft was a participant on the beloved game show, The Price Is Right.
Hartranft spoke to CBS Philly’s Jim Donovan and said “When George called my name, I got so excited. I literally jumped out of my chair. It felt like Christmas morning.”
In the end, Hartranft ended up winning $16,000. The episode aired earlier this week and he had to keep it a secret from everyone.
Could you imagine holding that kind of information?
Hartranft attended North Penn High School and now lives in Lansdale.
He told CBS Philly that the show was taped back in October. Tell this man all your secrets! He was able to keep this news to himself for 4 months!
