Some Contestants Get Extremely Lucky
In 2014, a contestant named Emil De Leon got extremely lucky when the only letters left on the board were “N” and “E”. She somehow gave the right answer to the puzzle that was “New Baby Buggy.” Even Pat Sajak tweeted about this, describing it as the “most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show. No kidding.”
Saturday Night Live Has Parodied The Show
In 2006, Wheel of Fortune was famously parodied by SNL. The famous Tom Hanks portrayed Pat Sajak and the comedy legend Tina Fey played Vanna White. The skit showed contestants trying but failing to guess the correct answer to a puzzle despite the fact that there was only one letter missing.
