The Price is Right Live! is coming to the Swiftel Center in Brookings, but there's been a change in plans.  Jerry Springer has now been tapped to host the show!

Jerry Springer will replace host Todd Newton for the tour date.  Springer, 68, is known for his long-running talk show “The Jerry Springer Show,” now in its 21st season. He has also been mayor of Cincinnati, an Emmy award-winning newscaster, host of the dating game show “Baggage” and much more.

Springer has hosted limited engagements of “The Price is Right Live,” which hits the Swiftel Center stage on Thursday, February 21 at 7 p.m.

The event will not be taped or televised and is not a try-out for a broadcast episode, but will still feature the atmosphere and games of the TV show.

The Price is Right Live! is an interactive stage show that gives contestants from the audience the chance to "Come On Down" to win appliances, vacations and even new cars by playing your favorite games from the show like Plinko to Cliffhangers to the Big Wheel, and even the Showcase!

Tickets range in price from $30-$50.  Get more info now.
