Drew Carey broke down in tears during a recent episode of The Price is Right as he said goodbye to Scott Robinson, a longtime team member who played a crucial role in training the host when he first joined the show.

“When I first started the show and I was learning all the games, Scott was my contestant for every single game. He taught me every single game on The Price is Right, all 70-plus of them. He knows everything about ‘The Price is Right’ there is.”

“I love this guy so much, and this is his last show. I love you so much,” Carey said while choking up.

The two embraced immediately after Carey’s emotional tribute.

Robinson had served as Carey’s practice contestant during the host’s early days on the show, helping him learn the intricacies of the program’s many games.

The heartfelt moment resonated with fans, who shared their reactions online.

“Aw, that was sweet. I’m sure Drew saw him as a kind of mentor and valued him as a friend.

Props to Drew for being a real man and showing actual emotion,” one viewer commented on YouTube.

Another added: “Awww, that’s so endearing. It’s nice to see people not afraid to show they give a crap about someone else.”

This isn’t the first time Carey has shown his emotional side on the popular game show.

In another touching episode, Carey made a young fan named Carter’s dreams come true, creating another memorable moment for viewers.

Carter, displaying remarkable poise on stage, had brought a letter he’d written for the veteran host.”How are you feeling? I went to CBS Studios with my mom, I watched people play games, we did everything I wanted…I watched them play The Price is Right…this is a letter of the future. We did so much stuff together, I wish I could watch the Showcase Showdown and spin the wheel. It was so cool. I hope you write me back soon. Your friend, Carter,” Carey read aloud.

After reading the letter, Carey hugged Carter, drawing loud cheers from the studio audience.

“God bless Drew Carey,” one fan commented online after the heartwarming exchange.

The game show’s set is known for its energetic and competitive atmosphere, where contestants’ over-the-top celebrations are common.

However, these emotional moments have added depth to the program’s appeal.

Carey’s visible emotion during Robinson’s departure underscored the close relationships formed behind the scenes of the long-running show.

Robinson’s exit marked the end of an era for Carey, who had grown accustomed to seeing his mentor on set daily.
