His ineptitude was further emphasized by his constant tripping, due to a very long labcoat (as in episode 1800 where he "discovers" Snuffleupaguses). Eventually, Dr. Price became a regular in street scenes, where he usually created complicated machines or conducted ridiculous experiments. The only known time that Dr. Price invented something original that actually works came in episode 2255, where he combined various items to create an invention that can dry towels, scratch a dog's ears, holds flowers, plays music, and gives one a place to sit down. His name is a pun on the Nobel Prize. There are times when Nobel Price knows that some of his experiments didn't need to be done, but he insisted that he still experiment.

The only known time that Dr. Price invented something original that actually works came in a 1986 episode, where he combined various items to create an invention that can dry towels, scratch a dog's ears, holds flowers, plays music, and gives one a place to sit down. His name is a pun on the Nobel Prize. The tie he wore was an actual tie that Brian Muehl had collected.
