Sheryl Roush, the writer who put us all together in Heart of a Woman in Business, hit the jackpot. She tells her story like this: ”On January 13th a bus load of 43 women (and 2 men) drove from San Diego to Studio City, California for two morning tapings of the Dr. Phil Show at Paramount Studios, then over to CBS for the afternoon taping of The Price is Right at CBS Studios. Arrangements were made by Michele Dixon, The Organizing Doctor, professional organizer.
“Being proud San Diego Chargers football fans, and having just won the Division Championship… and playing the Steelers in the Playoffs, [editor's note: the Steelers won the Super Bowl] it was unanimously decided our TV Game show matching “Team Shirts” would be the CHARGERS shirts.
“Audience members are “interviewed” before the show by staff, for about 15-30-seconds. Since we had a busload, chances were good that one person would be “selected” to be on the show as a Contestant.
“It’s so LOUD in the 350-person studio you can’t hear anything…so the stage crew hold up a sign with the next Contestant’s name on it at the time it’s announced!
“Ester Berry was called as the FIRST Contestant called. Wearing her blue Chargers shirt, she did great at the bidding stand and went up on stage, and even had a chance to spin the wheel with show emcee Drew Carey.
“The show went along fine… changing of the prize sets, commercial breaks, etc., then the final Contestant was called… Sheryl Roush… seated on the TOP row in the very back! Wearing her gold Chargers shirt, she was seated in the Steelers fan section… but assertively held her own! (after all.. she proudly trains the Charger Girl cheerleaders in their speaking and interviewing skills!)
“The Charger Fans show airs on Thursday, February 26th, on CBS (Channel 8, 10:00-10:30am Pacific).”
