The first half of 2024 has delivered its share of memorable moments on 'Wheel of Fortune' as Pat Sajak wraps up his 43-year tenure as the show's host.
As Pat Sajak’s final season as host of 'Wheel of Fortune' comes to an end, contestants and fans have continued to deliver memorable moments. The most memorable in recent weeks and certainly one of the top moments of all time was the very unexpected and not-safe-for-work answer from contestant Tavaris Williams.
Lost fortune In March, contestant Tara Brown managed to land on the $1 million wedge two different times but lost the big prize both times. When a contestant lands on it and then correctly guesses a letter, they pick it up, and if they solve the final puzzle, then the $1 million prize will be available to win after the bonus round. Brown unfortunately made some costly mistakes.
Vocal audiences In May, contestant Paul tried to answer the final puzzle 'What Are You Doing?' with minimal letters. Stuck with '_____L_N_' and no additional help, he wasn’t able to get to the correct answer in time, which was 'QUIBBLING.' As the letters were revealed, the audience began to audibly boo, prompting a confused Sajak to turn and ask 'Who asked you?' Sadly, Paul missed out on a new car and a chance at $1 million, but he did walk away with $33,550.
