If you were the contest winner or even if you just did okay, you would want everyone to see the show. But what if you made a huge mistake? How would you react? Shall you hide your face in shame or laugh?
Matt, a Wheel of Fortune contestant, made what might be the worst mistake in the show’s history. He gave an elaborate performance and won $23,350. Yet, his big error overshadowed the entire episode.
The goal in this round was to complete a word puzzle quickly. The puzzle was three words in the category “people.” Matt had two options: guess a letter or the entire sentence.
He chose to guess the letter “N.” The puzzle then looked like this: N_ T – _ N _ R _ T _ _ N TH_.
Matt needed a moment to figure it out.
