Wheel of Fortune host, Pat Sajak may have finally lost his mind after years of having to politely smile at ridiculous contestants. The Best Friends inspired episode, filmed in Hawaii, was home to the puzzling answers that may have pushed Pat into early retirement.
According to The Huffington Post, “What are you doing?” was the category heard around the world after Sajak almost walked off the set due to pre-mature answers. With an “N” being the only available letter on the board, one team guessed “Riding a brown horse.” Although the letter to blank space ratio, made the assumption appropriate, the second team’s response is what pushed the host over the edge. With the obvious addition of a “G,” team two stuck with the horse theme, saying, “Riding a white horse.” Confused as to who told the contestants that horses were involved, Pat walked off the set for a brief second, returning to reprimand the participants. Being the professional that he is, Sajack pulled it together, playing the incident off as a joke, which made the audience laugh. Who knows? Maybe he was just making a comedic debut.
However, as reported by Fox News, this was not the first time that Sajak had to bight his tongue. Last week, for instance, a man repeated the same wrong letter as the woman before him.
If anything, Pat should be commended for his patience in previous episodes, exemplified by our top ten list of Wheel of fortune fails.
