Some Wheel of mis-Fortune - VIDEO

Oh, the humanity! Wheel of Fortune is not all frivolity and fun. Merv Griffin knew what he was doing when he created that venerable game show. Drama, ensues! You think it’s so easy spinning the wheel, buying a vowel, laughing at Pat Sajak’s jokes and ogling Vanna’s gorgeous gait? Well, it’s not. Under all that pressure you’d be surprised — or possibly you wouldn’t — to see how some folks simply come up short in the solution department. The letters all drift together and instead of spelling a word you know as well as your own name, you pick the wrong consonant and you’re WAH-WAHed in shame and regret. The fortune goes to the next player and you’re left with egg on your face.
