    I can’t be sure it’s all true, but here’s what I heard: Some years after winning the money, Price sold the Price Is Right at a loss. Some say family members stole money from her. Some say she just didn’t know how to handle money, and that she took too many lavish vacations—to Dollywood, Guatemala, Hawaii, and Oklahoma City. She sold the annuity to get a larger lump sum up-front in lieu of regular payments. Her marriage fell apart, and one day, she awoke to find a boyfriend had cleaned out both of her bank accounts and left town, never to return.

      Who the fuck vacations to Oklahoma City??? Sorry Oklahoma, but there is never any reason for an outsider to ever want to visit besides a 1 day sports event. If you didn’t have football, you’d be as irrelevant as Albuquerque. But at least Weird Al made a song about Albuquerque.

        Oklahoma can go fuck itself but Albuquerque and new Mexico in general is awesome. We have unique food,culture and a environment that goes from arrid desert to high altitude cities. Never compare new Mexico to any shit hole city ever
