If you did well or won a contest, you’d want others to see. But what if you made a huge blunder? Hide in shame or laugh?
Matt, a “Wheel of Fortune” contestant, made a likely record – setting mistake. He did great and won $23,350, but his error overshadowed the whole show.
The round’s goal was to quickly solve a word puzzle with three “people” – related words. Matt could guess a letter or the whole sentence. He picked “N.” The puzzle then showed: N_ T – _ N _ R _ T _ _ N TH_.
Matt took a moment. To everyone’s shock, he guessed “The Greatest Buttercut,” without an “N.” The right answer was “THE NEXT GENERATION.” It’s a funny error.
