William Ray Svoboda (July 12, 1928 – June 20, 1980) was an American football linebacker who played nine seasons in the National Football League (NFL) for the Chicago Cardinals and New York Giants. He played college football at Tulane University and was drafted in the third round of the 1950 NFL draft. Svoboda died after suffering a heart attack while jogging. His wife Joyce, who appeared on the Nov 4,1957 evening episode of “The Price Is Right” hosted by Bill Cullen, responded to his question about her size saying she was 4’10” and weighed 89lbs. She described William as 6’1” and 220lbs. While she didn't win any prizes, she received a Polaroid camera as a parting gift.
