Wheel of Fortune
Pat Sajak Blasted on Twitter for ‘Belittling’ Contestant for ‘Pointless Story’ on Wheel of Fortune
Fans of Wheel of Fortune were not impressed with Pat Sajak after March 9th’s episode.
During the contestant intros, Scott told a touching story about his toe getting cut off while he was a child.
He explained that he told the story all these years later in order to thank the paramedics for their help.
However, the longtime host didn’t seem too impressed and noted that it was the “most pointless story” ever told.
Naturally, Twitter lit up with fans who thought the comment was rude and belittling.
“When did #Patsajak get so cold-blooded? 😁😁” one contestant asked.

Another fan noted: “#WheelOfFortune Sometimes Pat says really mean things to contestants, but this was the worst. A man thanking paramedics for giving him his big toe back, an important toe for balance, is not a pointless story. It’s touching that he still feels gratitude for them and took the time.”

Yet another fan pointed out that Sajak recently took to his personal Twitter to encourage the audience to be nice and more understanding to contestants after a firestorm of tweets broke out when one contestant attempted to solve a puzzle several times.
“So @patsajak got on his @WheelofFortune high horse a week ago & lectured everyone to be nice to contestants who couldn’t solve an easy puzzle, but tonight he had no problem belittling and insulting a contestant who told their intro story. Scott needs an apology. #WheelOfFortune”

Why was Pat toe tough on Scott? I didn't think his story was pointless. #WheelofFortune

There were a handful of fans who thought the comment was all in good fun.
Do you think Sajak was out of line with his comment? Let us know in your comments below!

‘Wheel of Fortune’ Contestant Incorrectly Solves the Puzzle Three Times in a Row: ‘What a Tremendous Disappointment’

Third time’s…. not the charm.
Tuesday’s episode of Wheel of Fortune was brutal for all three contestants, but it was particularly hard on Laura.
The category was phrase.
The puzzle read “A_other feather _n y__r _a_.”
Laura made two three guesses: “Another feather in your hat,” followed by “another feather in your lap,” followed by “another feather in your map.”
Unfortunately, all three of them were wrong.

The wheel was rather unkind to the other two contestants as they kept hitting “bankrupt” and “lose a turn.”
After roughly 6 failed attempts, Thomas finally guessed the letter “c,” which revealed that the puzzle was “Another feather in your cap.”
You can watch the brutal video below:
I'd like to solve… ANOTHER FEATHER IN EVERYTHING BUT YOUR CAP.
Thank you, Wheel, for not editing out 6 of these 8 lost turns in a row like you normally would.#WheelofFortune pic.twitter.com/7MByDsn32p

Naturally, Twitter was up in arms over the disastrous situation.
One fan noted that they are in “utter disbelief.”
The woman on Wheel of Fortune got not one but TWO chances to solve this. First time, she said “…in your LAP.” Second time, she said “MAP.”
I am in utter disbelief. #WheelOfFortune pic.twitter.com/MtM3qD7pj6

Another noted: “What a tremendous disappointment these players have been. They don’t get another feather in their laps, maps or hats!”

Another fan couldn’t get over the fact that she got it wrong “three times.”
I'm dying. The woman got this puzzle wrong THREE TIMES!!! 😭 #WheelOfFortune pic.twitter.com/x9wuvIgThd

Someone else called it the “greatest moment in TV history.”

One Twitter user said the “whole world was” yelling the correct answer at their screen.
Wheel of Fortune tonight has me 😂😂😂😂

the whole world was yelling it!!#wheeloffortune— Kimberly Kroll (@kmkroll31) March 2, 2022
It was even worse when you realized that the “h and t were used.”
#WheelOfFortune Omg. I just lost a ton of brain cells trying to watch Laura try to solve that puzzle. ‘Another Feather In Your _a_’
She said lap, map and hat (even though the h and t were used). pic.twitter.com/ANELkZEFtb— Kebert Xela (@Kebert_Xela600) March 2, 2022
But that wasn’t the only viral moment of the night.
In another puzzle, Thomas guessed that the phrase was “Barking Hotdogs,” which set Twitter off completely.
Barking hotdogs?!?! where did they find these people?!?! #WheelOfFortune

Twitter Is Divided Over Tonight’s ‘Wacky’ Contestant on ‘Wheel of Fortune’

Wheel of Fortune has seen its fair share of interesting and unique characters throughout its 39 seasons, but the latest contestant had Twitter divided.
Tuesday, January 11ths episode of Wheel welcomed a very energized character named Heidi.
While some people on Twitter were really vibing with her energy, others made it clear that she was entirely too much.
“Yo this lady has to calm down just a bit,” one user tweeted.

Others were impressed with Heidi, adding: “Heidi’s reaction was THE BEST,” with another noting: “I need Heidi’s energy. Loved it.”
But most people were just over it.
“Get Heidi off my screen, please,” one fan wrote.
Bahahahahhahahaha Pat Sajak killing me with the walk off like good riddance 😂😂 #WheelOfFortune
— ODEN (@trik1s) January 12, 2022
But others thought his expression was absolutely hilarious: “Damon had me cackling with his reaction to knowing the answer and it not being his turn.”
No one was spared from Twitter’s wrath as the third contestant offered up the answer “lite-breaking news” instead of “late-breaking news,” and people couldn’t handle the flub.

And all three contestants were called out for not knowing the song lyric to Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer.”
I'm sorry, was she confused by an ELTON JOHN SONG?! #WheelOfFortune
— ssss (@selmasays_) January 12, 2022
This crew not apparently a fan of Elton John's music lol #WheelOfFortune
— Mike 🇵🇷 🇺🇸 🚀 (@mike_h1990) January 12, 2022
These #WheelOfFortune contestants are a disgrace. They have no clue who Elton John is?
— Danielle (@PrimaDanielle) January 12, 2022
However, Heidi seemed to get the last laugh as she took home upwards of $50,000!
All in all, one user summarized it as the “worst episode of Wheel of Fortune.”
Would you agree?
After that episode I wish I was dead. #WheelOfFortune
