Pittsburgh Dad and Drew Carey. How about that for a collaboration?

Because something from Curt Wootton’s camp and “The Price is Right” host is coming.

Mallory Mason, CBS entertainment communications director, confirmed that Wootton will be doing a special “The Price is Right” episode of “Pittsburgh Dad.” Wootton, however, did not go on stage to compete on the CBS game show and was a guest in the audience, according to Mason.

Chris Preksta, director of “Pittsburgh Dad,” tweeted a photo from “The Price is Right” set teasing the “Pittsburgh Dad” segment with Carey.

Wootton and Carey became Twitter friends and chat about the Cleveland-Pittsburgh rivalry, Mallory said.

“The Price is Right” Twitter account posted a photo of Carey, a Cleveland native, and Wootton, lightheartedly suggesting the Pittsburgh-Cleveland rivalry was ended with the photo.

Both Carey and Wootton commented on the photo, as well.
