A Fairfield business was chosen to present a prize to a Kentucky man who won the gift on "The Price is Right!"

Tom Raper RV presented the toy hauler trailer to Aaron Miller of Lexington, Ky., on Tuesday, July 15.

Miller won the game show's Showcase Showdown in January and one of the prizes was a 2008 Fleetwood RedLine 230FSE. The

Fleetwood company chose Tom Raper RV to present the prize.

"It's fantastic," said Fairfield Tom Raper RV general manager Jamie Evans. "We're really excited and pleased that Fleetwood chose us to be the dealer to give Aaron his trailer."

Fleetwood RV Group has provided the Los Angeles-based game show with RVs to give as prizes for 20 years, and company president Paul Eskritt said that exposure has reached millions of potential customers.

Miller decided to go

on the show as he was visiting a friend in California in January.

"I was sitting there in the audience just praying they would call my name, and then they did," Miller said.

Evans said the trailer was made in California and shipped to Fairfield to be presented to Miller.
