Orono -
Hundreds of people who had tickets to a live version of a popular game show in Orono Wednesday night had to be turned away.
The Price is Right Live at the Collins Center for the Arts was cancelled.
Adele Adkins, the associate director of the CCA, tells TV5 the cancellation was due to unforseen technical difficulties with the equipment the show travels with.
On Facebook, the Collins Center now says around 5:30 Wednesday night lawyers for the Price is Right said they didn't feel the "no purchase necessary" aspect of the event was adequately explained to the public. So, the show was canceled.
The show will not be rescheduled.
Those who bought tickets with cash or check will get a refund in the mail.
Those who paid with credit cards need to go in person or call the CCA box office at 581-1755 to get their refund.
