Fans Outraged After ‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Refuses To Give Prize To Woman Who Answered Correctly
It is important to take note that this narrative was initially published in January 2024 and is currently undergoing republishing.
It was necessary for Megan, who is married and works as a choir director at a high school in California, to find a solution to a bonus problem that consisted of two terms that were classified as “living things.”
The board was altered by Megan such that it now reads “P_N_’ RC_D.” She did this by carefully selecting which letters to utilize.
During the last ten seconds of the game, Megan blurted out her guess, which was something along the lines of “Pink Orchid” or possibly something equivalent to “Something Orchid.” The moment the timer rang and the correct letters flashed on the display, Megan made a vocal expression of her dissatisfaction at the correct response, which was “Pink Orchid.”
Sajak, who had a sneaking suspicion that she might be correct, took out the prize estimate card and presented Megan with a healthy $40,000, which was significantly higher than the $14,007 that she ultimately earned.
The audience members, who were watching the show from their living rooms, were unwilling to accept the outcome and expressed their dissatisfaction to Wheel of Fortune’s response, which they said was unreasonable and inaccurate.
A fan voiced their dissatisfaction by saying, “The woman got screwed on the #WheelOfFortune bonus puzzle tonight; she totally said ‘PINK ORCHID’ right at the start.”
When she made that statement, I immediately contacted the judges to inquire about it! In order to compensate for the fact that I am partially hearing in one ear and deaf in the other, I lip read and use subtitles. Another admirer retorted, “There is no question in my mind that she referred to me as “Pink Orchid.”
Good morning, WheelofFortune tweets Rewinding the last puzzle was something I did after hearing the competitor say “pink orchid” at the beginning of the game. The words “You owe her some $$$” were yelled out by an angry viewer.
Everything is OK, Wheel of Fortune. When you play back tonight’s show in order to answer the final problem from the most recent airing, you might be able to hear her say “pink orchid” in a clear and audible manner. You failed to give the winner the credit that they deserved. Listen to it one more time. It is true that she did say that! The Orchid is lively.
During the course of the scandal, viewers of Wheel of Fortune have been increasingly critical of the show for what appeared to be errors, such as a recent disagreement over a rhyme that occurred during an Express round. Due to the fact that the program looked to stumble over an answer in the “Rhyme Time” category on January 22, the crowd showed an explosive response.
The decision was met with vehement opposition from supporters, who asserted that the phrase “Absolutely Positively” does not rhyme.
The message “Hey, @WheelofFortune” was written by one of the viewers. I would appreciate it if you could let me know how these two words rhyme. Due to the fact that they most certainly do not.”
